Twelve rules that are broken when people speak in tongues Part 2

We are instructed to not promote tongues only but prophesy.

eddif
Prophesy is preaching the word.

I know most charismatics are occupied with prophecy (not preaching), it is a huge part of the movement. They are focused on a word from God rather than obedience to the word of God and sanctification of ones own life.

it is all based on feeling and emotional ecstasy. Doctrines of demons.

Please do a survey of the Corinthian church and where they learned their pagan practices from. What they were doing was not from Holy spirit.

They even cursed Christ
1 Corinthians 12:3 Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God says, “Jesus is accursed,” and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit.

 
what evidence ? i been baptized into the body by one spirit

Awesome. If you have been baptized into one body, into Christ by the Holy Spirit then you have been born again.

Amen!

Now Jesus wants to baptize you with the Holy Spirit.

The evidence of Him baptizing you with the Spirit; that is to say, Jesus pouring out His Spirit upon you and filling you with the Holy Spirit, (The Promise of the Father) can be seen and heard.

Therefore being exalted to the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, He poured out this which you now see and hear. Acts 2:33

I do not see that as Biblical in anyway for today.

Let me ask you this. If Christians are not "baptized with the holy spirit" are they not truly saved?

And if they are saved, what can they not do that those that are "baptized with the holy spirit" can do?

some of this gets into interpretation of scriptures , we are baptized by the spirit at the new Birth by one spirit are we baptized into the body of Christ. in infilling paul said be not drunk with wine in excess but be filled with the spirit. i see this as if we get loaded with wine we do bonehead things due to the influence of the wine. filled with the spirit we are under the influence of the spirit led to do the the right thing . i also realize many take this as speaking in tongues..i do not.

i may disagree with this interpretation. if asked i will say why i do but other than that. i feel that belongs to them and not me .

what did jesus teach

1 Corinthians 12:13

New King James Version

13 For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free—and have all been made to drink [a]into one Spirit. this is the new birth the Holy Spirit enters us.. its a spiritual birth .. so to answer the question.. i say no

Ezekiel 37:4 kjv
4. Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.
5. Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live:
6. And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I amthe LORD.

Acts 4:12 kjv
12. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

When I mentioned prophecy. I meant the movement is occupied with predicting the future and end times. I find many professing Christians focus on that instead of what is essential to their own sanctification.

Yes.

My point was that many in the movement think that there needs to be a second "baptism of the spirit"

Grace and peace to you.
 
Yes.

Jesus is the one who baptizes / authorizes baptism in the Holy Spirit. Right now I can not explain that.
Tongues interpretation are not the only gifts. Teaching, preaching is given to the Church. Teaching all things is mandated.

1 Corinthians 14:39 kjv
39. Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.
40. Let all things be done decently and in order.

What was the last prophesy you promoted to the people of God ?
Why haven't you given your last prophesy here already ?
For me I would think that having been gifted possession of a prophesy from God & then withholding it from God's people would be an insurmountable burden to bear.
You must be in torment keeping such prophesies from God all bottled up inside you ?
 
Of all these hundreds , thousands of interpreted communications from God Himself how very , very strange that not so much as a syllable of one of these superlative words has been offered on these threads for the encouragement of God's people.
How do you explain this insistent emphasis to keep His transforming message selfishly hidden under a table , in the dark ?
I can not explain something I have not seen . I have seen no "insistent emphasis to keep His transforming message selfishly hidden under a table , in the dark". What I have seen is proper operation of the Gift of tongues in a worship service .
How is the power of God released by selfishly not sharing what God has given ?
These secretive inactions regarding what God has supposedly given to a select very special few are dark indeed .
God foreordains spiritual gifts for one purpose only to bloom and be given freely and abundantly in the light of His Love.
Who are these "select very special few" ? They are the people that attended a church service where a message was given out through the gift of tongues . It does take effort on our part to attend church . I know this may seem drastic to you but you could attend a Pentecostal church service or two and see if you can come to greater understanding of the Gifts of The Holy Spirit .
This business being talked about here smacks of the human spirit, and desires of the flesh.
One question for you . Do you have a human spirit ?
Interpreters sure seem proud of their ability to interpret.
I answered some of your questions, now kindly answer mine .
I have not seen a pride in the interpreters that I know .

How many interpreters do you know ?
 
So the Bible is not enough? That is a very bold and unbiblical statement.

The word and preaching that have happened so far are not enough for that service to be complete .

Do you have a scripture saying the bible is enough ?
electedbyhim You called me out for an "unbiblical statement" and that prompted my question . Please answer the question . Here it is again .

"I can not explain something I have not seen . I have seen no "insistent emphasis to keep His transforming message selfishly hidden under a table , in the dark". "Hawkman"

Why then have you not shared a single word of your last gifted prophesy here on this forum to those hungry for God's interpreted message ?
Do you have something against the people in this forum ?
If not, then why are you holding back your last prophesy ?
 
electedbyhim You called me out for an "unbiblical statement" and that prompted my question . Please answer the question . Here it is again .

Yes of course.

2Ti 3:16 All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; 2Ti 3:17 so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.

I could never even fathom that the Bible is not enough for the Lords work. I have been in many Pentecostal/charismatic churches and I know they do not think that the Bible is enough. The scriptures above would even be questioned.

Grace and peace to you.
