If people are rising up, whether in orderly succession or not, and speaking out some non-sensical jibber jabber and claiming it is a language- then they look stupid to thinking people- Christian and non-Christian alike.
tongues and interpretation is very powerful in a church! Don't know where you witness it?If people are rising up, whether in orderly succession or not, and speaking out some non-sensical jibber jabber and claiming it is a language- then they look stupid to thinking people- Christian and non-Christian alike.

The same way billions of Christians missed it for MOST of the history of the Christian church- it is not real.
It, like all other forms of unique revelation that God has given, was for a specific people at a specific time.
Well at least you did not call it demonic!The same way billions of Christians missed it for MOST of the history of the Christian church- it is not real.

No. I don't think the practice of tongues is always demonic.
I have seen videos of tongues practiced by other religions that are demonic that look practically identical to the pentecostal type churches I grew up in and that I have visited since becoming saved.
But I think sometimes it's not Satan as much as it is stupidity.
Well, I will pray that God shows you the reality of it all! Don't judge the real by the fake!No. I don't think the practice of tongues is always demonic.

And I will pray for you that you will be lead away from your error which undermines the sufficiency of Scripture and humiliates the Body of Christ the world over.
I hope you were sincere, because if I am in error I would like to know. But it is like this....If someone was to come up and tell you that you are not saved, how would you react?And I will pray for you that you will be lead away from your error which undermines the sufficiency of Scripture and humiliates the Body of Christ the world over.

I have heard many wonderful messages preached in tongues. Fortunately, the tongue was in english.
I had never heard of tongues until I was around 19 years old and worked at a lumber yard with a few other young fellows. I made friends with a fellow we called "TL", he was in his early twenties, married and had a child. I found out he was a Christian and we became fast friends. We used to get an hour for lunch, so one day he invited me over to his house, which was only a short walk away. I accepted.
Well, I'll never forget when I walked in. From a bedroom I heard the most awful and strange sounds I have ever heard. I am not trying to be insulting, but it did not sound human and disturbed me very much. I asked TL what that noise is, and he said, "Oh, that is my wife and a few of her friends, they are having a prayer meeting."
Well, I couldn't take it, it was unbearable to me. I told TL I could not listen to that sound and left. He laughed at me later, but I just couldn't handle that sound.
TL and I remained friends as long as we worked together. It was never an issue for us, but I could not handle those tongues.
