and am appalled at the way I have been insulted and accused because I automatically do not seek after speaking in tongues I am disgusted by some of the posters on this thread who claim to be believers yet are twisting scripture, focusing on minutae, attacking people’s faith because they don’t speak in tongues or have an illness.

Can you point out the posts here where there are attacks on those who don't speak in tongues? So far all I've seen HERE is one being attacked because they DO. And who insulted/attacked you because you do not speak in tongues? Was it here or elsewhere?

I ask because in all my years I have never even heard the term 'seek after tongues' or anyone being attacked/insulted because of it - either way. It just does not exist in the real world. I have no idea what circles you/anyone else live in - I never heard the term/or heard anyone attacked for it - until I came here. Along with the term DEMAND miracles. Sounds to me someone is either making it up or they surround themselves with a bunch of nosy bodies. How would anyone know if someone else speaks in tongues unless they ask?

What I have seen, and only here, is one being attacked/insulted because they DO, not don't. IMO, if one does or doesn't, it doesn't matter - what's the ruckus about? Not sure why some are concerned what others do/don't do. Everyone comparing themselves among themselves.

"We do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves. When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are not wise". 2 Cor 10:12

INDEED.

The death grip on bitterness, resentment, vendettas against perceived and/or real slights and insults from evidently years and years ago as well as however recent . . . seems to be thicker than ice on the North Slope in January.

And yet we’re supposed to kowtow, kiss toes, smile submissively etc. to the poison spewed from all that bitterness, resentment and vendetta mentality stuff.

Not planning to comply on my watch.
