Open Church: where all are welcomed

Doesn't necessarily mean all tho, if all saved speak with tongues than I and hundreds of millions of others who accepted Jesus and know Him personally are delusional.. few before Azusa St spoke in tongues, that move was used of God to restore to His people, but not all.

That is because the bible is not taken literally.
The scripture above says: He that believeth, not some that believe...

It's another feat of satan to deprive the believer of the power that comes with speaking in tongues.

I can recommend teachings that support Jesus' word, if you're interested.

Blessings.

I know them all, also know it's not a determining factor of who's saved.. have moved in the power of God for a while without speaking in tongues, as have tons, including most of the great reformers and revivalists of the past.

Sorry - you know them all? Teachings? Wow! You must be all - knowing... :D

All I am saying is that tongues is a gift available to ALL believers. It is satan who does an effective job promoting teachings that say otherwise.

Stay blessed.

PS:// Please remember that Jesus warns us against false teachers...
The establishment sacred cows... Perhaps I want to make this a God-Waves Series...

The only word we can rely on as absolute truth is scripture (in the original)...

Yes I do, if u can why can't others :) In fact have been studying the scriptures for decades and the subject of tongues is not very extensive.

Yup Satan and false teachers.. but there are disagreements among brethren on secondary issues like tongues, different interpretation of certain scriptures.. eternal security, rapture timing, speaking in tongues etc .. each believes the other has been led astray.. best to just agree to disagree and let the Spirit lead into truth in His proper time.

Well, I go by Scripture - and Scrpture tells us that all believers are gifted with tongues. :)

Check out Curry Blake's 'Divesity of Tongues', which may be the best bible based resource there is on the subject.

Stay blessed.

So do I brother and I believe scripture is inconclusive. Tnx for the resource but nothing there haven't heard before. God bless.

As you wish.
However, Scripture is never inconclusive. It is precise, because it is God's word. And God is perfect. There is no confusion in Scripture.

Stay blessed.

Disagree, sometimes things are left not totally clear for a reason.. God bless.
