I would explain, but unfortunately you're far too blind and ignorant to understand. Have a nice day. :)

Then I guess you're perfectly right to say whatever you think about someone as long as you don't say they are lost eternally. :rolleyes:

What? Paul quoted Is.28 in 1Cor.14. And what has Rom.8:28 got to do with tongues?

Your judgment of me will come back to haunt you. Have a nice day. :)

As you think so you are. So you model yourself on your perception of your inner self? I'll stick to what is written thanks that way I'll know if the Christ in me is the real One. ;) The word of God truly is alive, as I like to say, the Bible is the only book that reads me as I read it. Have a...

It appears there are those who just don't like to reason. I don't like maths but putting two and two together is the exception. ;) :)

1Cor.14:20-22 20 Brethren, do not be children in understanding; however, in malice be babes, but in understanding be mature. 21 In the law it is written: “With men of other tongues and other lips I will speak to this people; And yet, for all that, they will not hear Me,” says the Lord. 22...

Why does everyone keep ignoring the purpose of tongues? Is it because there are those who prefer to remain as children in their thinking? 1Cor.14:20-22 20 Brethren, do not be children in understanding; however, in malice be babes, but in understanding be mature. 21 In the law it is written...

You keep using the word perfect in the wrong sense. Were the scriptures complete in the 8th century bc or did the Lord still have more to say? Out of context? The Isaiah passage is what Paul is quoting in 1Cor.14. :ROFL: The context of 1Cor.13 is to the believer regarding prophecy, tongues...

Our bodies aren't going to mature or be completed, they will be radically transformed.

You have put forth your argument so eloquently how could I ever possibly disagree. :rolleyes:

@CS1 I forgot to add the verses and mention prophecies and knowledge were to fade out while tongues were to cease abrubtly. Two Greek words are used to show how the gifts end differently. 1 Cor.13:8-10 8 Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are...

Has the language ever been identified and your interpretation been verified? Afterall, it's not a hard thing to do today with the Internet. How could I know you are not as deluded as the one speaking in so called tongues? Unfortunately, you have ignored the purpose of tongues as many do. It was...

It's all been said by others from what I can see. Tongues was for unbelieving Jews as a warning and with the destruction of the Temple, Israel's time was over so no more need for warning. Tongues was not a gift to bless the Church but to warn Israel, Isaiah prophesied the time would come and...

That's because you have to put many verses together and come and reason together with the Lord God. Holding to only one verse is fine in times of emergencies but daily living requires a whole rationale behind one's thinking.

I see nothing in the chapter to think otherwise. Paul mentions there are many languages in the world and those present may or may not know it. If there is no-one there who knows what is said and there is no interpreter, then one should keep quiet and speak silently to God for He alone knows all...

You mean like your opinion none have ended? ;) :D

He was referring to one particular gift ending in 70AD, tongues, not "gifts" plural which you erroneously stated.

Yes, but we learn our language with which we communicate, even if it is used poorly at times. The gift of tongues was a language unknown to the speaker but known to the hearer.

I've been in a number of services where they supposedly spoke in tongues and never once heard an interpretation. So much for edification of the Church. :confused:
