You've made a false accusation at me, now see if you can prove it! As one who has a gift from the Spirit, I would not be saying the gifts have ceased to manifest. But I do not broadcast such a gift for it is given for exercising among the believers.
As I discern Kenneth Copeland Iam repulsed with his spectacle and dead soul claiming the name of Christ yet leading sheep to ecumenism that is sourced in the spirit of antichrist.
So, accuser, prove where I have said Peter did not speak in tongues with the rest when they were all seated together. BUT do not deceive anyone by trying to conflate that moment with when Peter arose to address the masses who came in curiosity to see this strange phenomenon, came and heard then everyman Peter's GOSPEL message in their native tongue.
I never said that.
You tried to make it out like i said that when Peter explained that “this was that” that the Prophet Joel had prophesied, that he was speaking in tongues. I referred to the timeframe when Peter spoke to the crowds, but not that he spoke in tongues while preaching what Pentecost was about.
I am not making a character assessment of you, I am trying to make you understand that tongues are not too difficult for the same God who caused the miracle of different languages at the Tower of Babel.
All of these sign gifts of Pentecost are to be exercised in holiness and in order “For the Holy Spirit is the spirit of self control”... and they also do not even mean that one is saved! I rarely deal with anyone who complains about the existence of the Gifts for today; honestly, my focus is on much more problematic issues... such as demonic counterfeits in the NAR church tricking Christians into thinking they are of God.
The slaughter of faith from this movement is abominable. So, forgive me if in any way I have not been clear or offended, I really am not adept in defending that the Gifts are for today... I’m too busy relying upon them for discernment.
