Spiritual Gifts - Tongues cont'd
"Tongue" Cont
1 Cor 14 6 Paul states that even if he speaks in tongue, what good is it if there's not explanation or teaching, how will it profit u? Even things without life must make a distinct sound (such as trumpet before battle) also should we and the tongue we speak (verse 9).Verse 12 states that if ur gonna use ur gift, make sure that its to build up the body of Christ. You have to be able to speak what people can understand. If we can't understand, then we can't say Amen. We can't agree to something that we don't understand. When u speak in tongue, pray that u have a way to interpret it so it can edify the body. Verse 23 - 28 states that if outsiders who can't interpret what the tongue is saying, u might seem crazy. Tongue is to bring together the body, not separate. And if u speak tongue and no one is there to interpret it, don't speak it out loud... Keep it between you and God...
