I'd rassle you (and lose) to be first in line to apologize to him for my disbelief. But we'll never have the opportunity; he'll never give it to us. We know why, and he knows we know why.
Ah yes, the Interplanner shuffle; close kin to the Curly Shuffle :chuckle:

Don't try using my love of Scripture as a defense against your hatred of it.

I would agree with that, because the gift is mostly of personal benefit, it is the least impressive from an external perspective.
However, from a personal perspective, the gift is extremely powerful.
What do you think would happen if someone went into hospital ward saying that God wanted them to be healed of whatever they were suffering with, and asked them if it was ok to pray for them?
I'll take my five minutes of clarity to your life long delusion anytime :chuckle:
A real Pentecostal would know to send them to the Oral Roberts Hospital :chuckle:

Sometimes I have to pinch myself and remind myself who I'm talking to. Is it worth it I ask myself?
Yes I think it is.
Hi and I had a PRIEST pray for me as I lay on a hospital bed and he keep insisting , when I said NO , So he pray any way and NOTHING HAPPENED !!
And here they are a step down from PENYECOSTALS !!

So do you believe that Peter understood the language that the gentiles spoke in?

Great user name.
I should have gone with "Oral Roberts Hospital" as my user name :rotfl:
First of all, I don't believe "Tongues" exist today. However, if they did, there is so much room for fraudulent displays of it. It can be faked, so how would anybody KNOW they were hearing the "Real thing??"

That's kind of an oxymoron, a great healer with a hospital!
Kinda like Creflo Dollar wearing his reading glasses.

That's ok - I don't mind repeating myself - it's worth the "effort" to copy and paste ...
["The entire chapter of 1 Cor 14 is about speaking so that all can understand what is said so the assembly/gathering/church is edified. That is what Paul said to strive for - not mumbling under your breath and claim that it's "speaking to God in mysteries". Those "mysteries" simply mean what is hidden aka not understood if not interpreted, and if they are not interpreted one is to be silent - that means, do not speak - verse 28 - which more fully interprets verse 2."]

A priest is a step down from pentecostals?
I hate it when those beads and hail Mary's don't work.
Makes you want your money back.
Translated - in your case - "in one pocket; out the other" :chuckle:
I was blessed with an ability to impersonate voices. I've entertained people for years with that ability. About forty-five years ago I was standing at a phone booth doing an impression of Jimmy Stewart and some people gathered around and one of them said: "It's him." Well, I turned around and to their surprise, I wasn't him. Although I sounding just like him, it wasn't REAL. I faked his voice. I believe that a lot of people FAKE doing tongues. For various reasons. Perhaps, to show others they're in the club, etc.

Good.
How are people edified when they're listening to gibberish?
Interpretation?
This is like speaking in tongues. It needs an interpretation.
Basically what he's saying is that the interpretation is the key. And this disagrees with what the maddies have been saying, but they wouldn't understand this either.
