And by the way, Speaking in tongues is the LEAST of all gifts, and Paul CLEARLY said that we should seek to Prophesy, so, why should I follow a Church that tells me to seek the least of all things?

LOL...where to start?

First off, it is not written that speaking in tongues is the least of the gifts. But so what if it was? Are you too good for the least of God's gifts? I'd think that the least of God's gifts are excellent!

But speaking of leasts...

Paul was the least of the Apostles...Jesus said that the least would be the greatest...Paul said that the least in the body was the most important...

1Cr 14:39 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.

Speaking in tongues is something that is CLEARLY good, CLEARLY encouraged, and CLEARLY something that believers can do.

Forbidding to speak in tongues is CLEARLY anti-Biblical teachings.

Why would you want to follow a church that practices anti-Biblical doctine?

If you can't be faithful in the least of things how can you be expected to be faithful in the greater?

Luk 12:26 If ye then be not able to do that thing which is least, why take ye thought for the rest?

Luk 16:10 He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.
