    based on 1 rating
     | 11,534 views

    The arguments against speaking in tongues today, if applied to other Bible doctrines, would have all orthodox Bible believers crying foul. The truth is, these arguments are not true to the Scriptures or Early Church experience, and should be rejected.

    WHY YOU SHOULDN’T SPEAK IN TONGUES INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. We’re on our way somewhere! Not just to a normal place like the grocery store or to the bank. We’re on our way to heaven! 2.

    Often the wilderness is a dangerous place, frought with danger, anxiety, vulnerability. Out there, we are usually the prey or the victim, but it is also the place where we encounter God.

    Why are we meeting God in the wilderness (where else?) We are, generally speaking, city dwellers. We live in cities, towns and villages, but for the most part we stay out of the wilderness unless there is something there for us. But in the Bible, a lot of important things happen in the ...read more
