IS IT PERMITTED TO SPEAK IN TONGUES IN CHURCH?

FOR TAKING YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD REMAIN BLESSED.

IS IT PERMITTED TO SPEAK IN TONGUES IN CHURCH? 

JUNE Monday 28th
TEXT: 1 CORINTHIANS 14: 1-6 
Key verse: 1 Corinthians 14:4 “He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.”
Many churches that claim to perform miracles, signs and wonders have little or no regard for righteousness and holiness of God, neither are they interested in diligent obedience of the commandments of Scriptures. The frequent speaking in tongues publicly carried out in such assemblies may not be inspired by the Holy Spirit. What they impart to their congregations that results in sudden outbursts of speaking in tongues by practically all members may not be of God. 
For true believers that have been genuinely baptized with the Holy Ghost, it is not a sin to speak in tongues because it is a God-given language of edification. In your prayers speak as much as the Lord gives you the power to speak. Pray in tongues and sing in tongues. But while in the church, wisdom is profitable to direct. Apostle Paul was inspired to instruct that if in church messages in tongues should be delivered with the interpretation so that others will be edified, but where there is no interpretation, there should be control. Generally in a congregation, there are newcomers and if they see these uncontrolled outbursts in tongues they may not understand what is going on. They may even say you are mad. Therefore control yourself and avoid drawing attention to yourself so you will not be a disturbance or distraction to others. 
That is why preachers in HOREMOW do not make a show of speaking in tongues publicly on the pulpit, but speaking in tongues go on privately and individually though it may seem not to be going on to some people. During night vigils, some ignorant or hypocritical pastors mount loudspeakers all around them in the night and they disturb the neighbourhood by their nuisance. Will such actions attract neighbours and Moslems to that place? Will, they not rather mock you and be abuse the doctrine of Christ? Not everyone is baptized in the Holy Ghost. It is improper to shame those that are not baptized in the Holy Ghost if all are to rise and pray aloud in tongues. This tempts them to speak strange tongues or copies others to avoid shame.  

Thought for the day: Do not make a show of speaking in tongues publicly 
Song for the day: What the Lord has done for me, I cannot tell it all......
Bible reading for the day: 
Job 13-15; Acts 8:26-40

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. FACTS TO BE UNDERSTOOD ON REVELATION MESSAGES WEDNESDAY JANUARY 11 TEXT: NUMBERS 12: 4-8. Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20. God has given revelations to many in our days and He is still in the business of doing that. The choice of these messengers is His sovereign will. Some of these revelations are written in books for all to read and some are shared verbally. There are scriptural facts to be understood on these revelation messages. They follow the pattern of scriptural revelations in the Holy Bible. Some are given in plain, simple and direct language, while some are given in pictorial language and figures of speech. The recipient of the revelation may be an ignorant person whose understanding is unfruitful, hence, he may not be capable to interpret the revelation received. Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
