Book 12 Tongues HC

Is there a super prayer language? Somebody is wrong. Either the gift of tongues was intended to be a more intimate way for us to pray or the modern tongues movement (glossaism) is one of the greatest frauds in Christianity. In this study we defend the following: • Glossaists cannot match the biblical attributes of the gift. • The definition of tongues has significantly changed even in glossaism due to embarrassment not exegesis of Scripture. • In 1 Corinthians 14 the Apostle Paul was attempting to eliminate the same pagan counterfeit private prayer language version of tongues that is occurring today. • Glossaism has no answer for the Apostle's clear statement: Tongues are a [miraculous] sign for unbelievers (1 Cor 14:21). Rather the counterfeit version today makes Christians look crazy just as Paul warned. • The early Church testified universally to the cessation of the gift of tongues. • Legitimate explanations for the current tongues phenomena are alarming.
