I did not know linguists were the new authoritative Theologians of Christianity? So a "linguist fully understands the Pneumatika, charismata and Diakonia, The Gifts of the Holy Spirit and the gifts of Christ to the church?

I did not know a secular person was to even be taken seriously about biblical truths?

I'm sure there are those like evolutionist, psychologist, and now the new Linguist who is speaking for the empowering of the Holy Spirit instead of the word of God. Human reasoning is the new biblical authority.

Sorry, Lord, prophets, apostles, evangelists, and Pastors, and teachers who are saved and filled with the Spirit You should have become a "linguist".

The above attack and falsehood I notice not one verse to refute 1cor chapter 12 through 14. Not one verse given to dismiss the gifts of Christ found in Eph chapter 4. Nothing to address Mark 16 or Matthew 28 or Luke 24.

"Evenki Shaman in Siberia, a vodoun priestess in Togo and a Christian tongues-speaker in Alabama are producing are in no way different from each other. They’re all producing their glossolalia in the exact same way; they just have different explanations and beliefs as to why they’re doing it and where it comes from."


Sounds like you are seeking devil worship to disprove the gifts of the Holy Spirit and then try to make all of them fit with those who are pentacostel. That is very much close to blaspheming the Holy Spirit.


Shaman in Siberia or a Vodoun priestess in Togo and a Christian in Alabama? You do not know what you are talking about.

Try reading the Bible in the language you do understand instead of prompting up false doctors to attack the word of God.


You try to use worldly secular humanism to speak of spiritual things and have the audacity to say a Christian in Alabama is of the devil?

You are doing the same thing. Try proving the gifts of the Holy Spirit are not for today by the word of God. You can't You have to look outside the word of God to find support for your bias LOL.
That speaking in tongues is in other religions to find is not New. That speaking in tongues according pentecost/ charismatic teaching is to see as a sign to be filled with the Holy Spitit ore be baptised with the Holy Spirit ore empowered with the Holy Spirit is in deed strange, because this excludet automaticlly all other children of God.
Thats why this doctrine was questioned right after their beginning. That God can use the understanding of an other tongue( language) as a Tool for to show his power as in Acts 2 should be no miracle.
But this has nothing to do with the speaking of tongues which is taught from pentecostals and charismatics.

I see your back you were not able before to show me how 1cor 13:8-9 proves the gifts of the Holy Spirit are not for today because the Bible was made. YOu do not know Pentacostel doctrine I proved that before in a different thread you showed up at.

YOu do not know what you are talking about you are just a dog whistle for a cencessionist. Please just let it go You will not accept the answer that was given to you before proving you are ignorant to this topic.

yes of course. youtube and wiki. bastions of all knowledge and truth

I can find a video on youtube on anything...except Trump of course...and as wiki is open-sourced, the devil himself could contribute

zzzzzzzzzzz
I am not sure what your point is.

Are you saying that what we see with our eyes is fabricated????

I have no idea where you come from or what you do but I can promise you that what is seen on those videos is exactly what happens in Charismatic Pentecostal services.

Just ONE!!!! come on? One guy. what are the gifts of the Holy Spirit for? I know you have seen videos big deal. Try using the bible what are the gifts of the Holy Spirit for?

you need to get out more. not surprised you blame women though. the worst offenders are men. I've heard plenty use a mic and blather away with a false interpretation. this forum is absolute proof that people who are not in accord with scripture forbid women to speak even though scripture is plain they can and do speak in the NT.

tongues are not dominated by women. that is absurd

IMO, people of like mind with you should keep silent. I've been to plenty of churches, including where women cannot pray or speak, and the men make up for any embarrassment they think a woman might cause



yawn. would not expect you to say anything less :sneaky:
Get out more???? I only wish I could!!!! At 82 my traveling days are over. I have been blessed to be able to lead revival servies and misionary trips to Africa and Israel as well as Middle America and Hattie.

For some reason you think I blamed women. I am only posting what I HAVE SEEN.

Yes, plenty of men speak in gibberish but by and large it is the women who start it.

So what you are saying is that people like me who do not agree with YOU should not be allowed to voice our thoughts as you do.

Isn't it funny and ironic that YOU would say such a thing to someone who went to war and killed other people for YOU to be able to say such a ludacrist thing.

If I were you.....I would sit down and cry about what you just said, and as an American and a Christian, I would be ashamed of myself.

But that is just me!

Brother......focus on the thread TOPIC and not me!

As a Christian, you should not have to be taught such a thing as you are asking.

The purpose of the Spirit’s manifestations is to benefit the Body of Christ.

“But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all…”
1 Corinthians 12:7​
They are available to all Believers and distributed by the Holy Spirit, according to His will.

“But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.”
1 Corinthians 12:11​
If I had to choose ONE gift it would be The gift of FAITH. This gift of the Holy Spirit grows as we walk with the Lord. You are saved by faith. The gift of faith is knowing full well that you cannot accomplish something on your own, but that Lord has empowered you to move into new levels to do miracles and wonders in His name.

Does that help your understanding my brother?

I used my age as a source of information.

You should focus on the thread instead of me.

You see......by throwing up a "smoke screen of personal comments" you are trying to deflect away from the Bible fact that God said "TONGUES SHALL CEASE".

Does the word "CEASE" have a deferment meaning than "TO STOP?!!!!!

How do the gifts of the Holy Spirit Profit all? You make money on it ?


Here they are to Edify, Comfort, and Exhort.

That is why they are still for today. because the body of Christ needs now more than ever to be edified, comforted, and exhorted.

1cor 13:8-9 is not the full context guy sorry you are wrong. Read all three chapters 12 to 14, Those are not smoke screens that is Bible. LOL.

I have you choose to focus on a false narrative about Pentecostals and the gifts of the Holy Spirit and are wrong. I gave you many Biblical responses to which you had no answer. Now you want to cry foul? Please.

Can YOU post words that are in responce to the thread and are not a personal attack or is that what you normally when you can not correctly answer questions posed to you?

That is why they are still for today. because the body of Christ needs now more than ever to be edified, comforted, and exhorted.
Then how does someone speaking in gibberish that no one understands......edify...comfort and exhort????

What you just posted is exactly the opposite of what God said in 1 Corth 14:3-4............
"The one who prophesies speaks to people for their strengthening, encouraging and comfort. Anyone who speaks in a tongue edifies themselves, but the one who prophesies edifies the church. "

You see.....you are quick to post things that YOU want to do but you do not seem able to READ what God has said.

Now, do YOU want to read it again and change your post or are you going to ignore your mistake and double down?????

Correct!

Chapter 12-14 is a CORRECTIVE unit of Scripture because the people in the church were using tongues incorrectly then just as the church is today.

READ the book!

No sir you have not. I am not crying foul......I am stateing what you are doing.
IF you want to attack me with personal comments please go right ahead. It does not phase me in any way but it may allow you to vent your frustration over a subject you are struggeling with.


You asked me one question on the purpose of the gifts of God and I answered your question.

You have focused on ME because you can not support your choices with the Scriptures or YOU WOULD!

A major sign of the last days, is the worlds acceptance of killing the innocent unborn 42 Million annually in 2020?

Homosexuality in same sex marriage throughout the world?

Women preaching and teaching from pulpits in the general assembly, as men sit in the pews?

I believe were in the final hours, as we watch the war developing in Israel, will the Antichrist soon come as the Man of Peace, with the command to rebuild a 3rd temple?
I agree 100%.....maybe even 101% if that is possible!

Remember.........for there to be a 7 year peace treaty, there must be a WAR.

I do not know if this is the one......I kind of doubt it, because Russia has to be involved and they just may be sooon according to Ezekiel 38.

Tneempowering of the Holy Spirit is not "in deed strange" .
No , but the pentecostal/ charismatic teaching about speaking in tongues is.

In the 2nd century, in the almost churches the gift signs where not existing anymore.
That why the montanism ( as the pentecostal movement today) was seen first as from God.
Of course we will not come to an agreement.
But I do not attacing you personal for your believe.
Till today you could not show me that the pentecostal teaching Was taught anywhere in the NT ore churchhistory to Christians.
And even Paul taught, that speaking in tongues is not given to every believer. What is in opposit to the teaching that speaking in tongues is a sign that someone is filled/powered/ baptised with the Holy Spirit.

what is fraud is your assertion if that is what you saw what did you not address it then?
I see that along with not correctly understanding the Scriptures you also do not understand the word FRAUD which according to Webster's dictionary is.......
"Wrongful deception with the intent to gain personally or financially."

Have I asked you for money????
Do you actually think that I am going to gain something by posting truth from the Word of God????

1 Corth. 13:8....
"Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away."

How do I "gain" anything from that my dear brother?
