To: Cronos
There are true and false teachings. And there are true and false tongues. Every true thing of God has an opposing counterfeit. The counterfeits don't nullify the true.

A couple verses are relevant here: "For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. Romans 11:29

"If anyone thinks himself to be a prophet or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things which I write to you are the commandments of the Lord." 1 Cor 14:37. This verse, in context relates to the requirement that a church service follows this scriptural order:
"Whenever you come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation." 1 Cor 14:26. Those who reject tongues have rejected a commandment of the Lord.

Yes, you are correct.....the Bible says that even the devil speaks in tongues and as with anything there are fakes out there.....but it doesn’t discredit the true believers
