That's sad that people would say those things.

I know you didn't. I just said that because the way I read what you wrote it sounded like the pride in this movement might negate the others. It's all good.

That definitely sounds like a history to be proud of. It's great to see God working through any movement. Just don't say your denomination is the only true church, and I'm happy.

I understand what you're saying. I don't understand why people should be afraid of their gifts. We know our audiences. God knows. He gives us the inspiration to speak at the right time, in the right way, to the right person. It's not like we're just going to walk around everywhere rambling in...

I'm probably not understanding. Sometimes i can't put two and two together. I don't see that tongues would always be prophecy, though. It could be any message, just sharing the gospel and encouraging others.

I don't agree that Peter was equating tongues and prophecy, but I'm not part of that movement, so I'm studying to see how that is explained. That's a problem, though. I never like it when anyone says that the Bible doesn't mean what it says. There may be more meaning that you can get from...

Mainly cost of living.

I would've gone to the Nashville area when I fled Cali, but it wasn't as inexpensive as Arkansas. ;)

Buenos días.

I'm not a paying member, but I can talk on forums! :)

Hi! I need friends, too. I actually was afraid to click on the singles forum because I'm not looking to date, but I need someone I can talk to regularly. All my friends are married.

Oh, but keep reading. One flat earther says that gravity pulls us back from falling off the edge.

Where do you get that the serpent possessed the woman?

I think you're right and very well spoken. I feel the same way, except that I think it's fun to theorize sometimes about the what if, as long as it's doesn't go to far and it's just for entertainment, not hurting our faith.

Thanks

You know what's weird is that i had suicidal thoughts years ago, and then i had this realization that i wasn't having faith in God and that He had a plan for my life to think that way. Since then until recently I've still struggled with depression, but my faith kept me from thinking about...

Everlasting-grace, who i quoted, said that it's a sin and pride is the root of the sin.

I like what you're saying about how you go through the scriptures and don't try to press it in someone. I don't agree that it's for everyone, though. Each has their own gifts. I don't believe everyone has the gift of tongues. I don't myself. I think there's a reason for that. I think there are...

I'm glad you mentioned the interpretation coming along with the tongues. I've been puzzled by that. I don't have the gift of tongues or interpretation. I have a friend who told me a story about visiting someone in a remote area of Colombia from an old indigenous tribe, and she was able to speak...
