SPEAKING IN TONGUES // MCGI || THE OLD PATH

This teaching by Bro. Eli Soriano explains the true meaning of speaking in tongues.

As learnt from the scripture , This is actually one of the powerful gifts given by the Holy Spirit, and it should not be taken lightly.

Speaking in tongues means speaking in a language that is not your native language or the one you learned growing up. It is not something you go to school to learn.

This gift has been around since the time of the Apostles. After Jesus went back to heaven, He promised to send the Holy Spirit. When the Spirit came, one of the first signs was the Apostles speaking in different languages. People from different nations heard them and were surprised to hear their own languages being spoken.

Acts 2:7-8 tells us how amazed the people were to hear the Apostles speak in their native tongues.

Today, some people try to copy this gift. Some even attend classes where they are “taught” how to speak in tongues. That is not how it works. Making fun of or faking the gift of the Holy Spirit is wrong.

Each believer has their own gift. Some may speak in tongues, while others may have the gift to interpret what is being said. All of these gifts are important and come from God.

As Christians, we should not force ourselves into gifts we do not have. what then should we do ,we should pray and ask God to help us understand the gift He has given us. When used the right way, these gifts help build the Church and strengthen our faith.​

Speaking in tongues is a gift from the holy spirit which we must not abuse.
