Theologians offer views on ‘private prayer language’

My opin- 'Tongues' can also be a sign of carnality.

McKissic seems bound and determined to have his way about the issue.

 

I think any experienced cabbie should be able to direct them to local AoG...

 

He not only wants the freedom to do it, "Who is stopping him?" But he wants it accepted by the SBC. He wants it to be open for discussion and for people to find it as the norm.

Kind of sounds like those in some other chosen lifestyle I know.

 

Most charismatics I know like to view their PPL as a sign of "true spirituality"----like---"I have arrived spiritually!!"

I have said on another thread here that the true sign of spirituality is not the ability to "speak in another tongue"---but the true sign of spirituality is the abiltiy to control the tongue God gives you at birth!!

A good many of charisimatis I know----buddy---they can go on with their so called "gift" but you get them in the public and you'll hear some of the foulist garbage coming from their mouths----I wouldn't give you two cents for "real spirituality" like that!!!

 

no he doesn't want everyone in the SBC to be using a private prayer language. Brother McKissic is just asking for the SBC not to go down the sad road of fundamentalism and allow for freedom within this area, particularly for our missionaries. Don't try to suggest that McKissic and others are saying this is a primary teaching on the field, but if someone is so led and they maintain the purity of their conduct in regards to 1 Corinthians 14 than they shouldn't be disqualified from service.

The critics of McKissic's position never seem t deal with 1 Cor 14 too much.

 

Check out the other articles on BP dealing with PPL - James Smith of the Florida Baptist Witness is attempting to pull off one of the conservative resurgence typical tactics of guilt by association. McKissic is relying on McBeth who used Shurden who while at Southern Seminary gave lectures warning of the Conservative Resurgence - the horror!

Guess Smith did not want to be outdone by Moran in his proposal to the Ex Comm of the SBC and all the guilt by association he loves to toss around. Check out Marty Duren at www.sbcoutpost.com

 

Brother gb,

I just stated my opinions. It just appears that McKissic is pushing to get the PPL accepted. I am sure that he is a great guy otherwise.

 

Are you REALLY attempting to compare this to homosexuality?

I apologize if I have misunderstood you.

 

I did not say nor suggest any of the words you have put in my mouth.

You are correct it is a comparison but not in the way you have understood it. The comparison I make is not between the error but in the methodology in which it is being pushed on others.

 

Thank you for the clarification. I wanted to make sure I wasn't misinterpreting you. I apologize.
