Book 12 Tongues HC

Is there a super prayer language? Somebody is wrong. Either the gift of tongues was intended to be a more intimate way for us to pray, or the modern tongues movement (glossaism) is one of the greatest frauds in Christianity. In this study we defend the following: - Glossaists cannot match the biblical attributes of the gift. - The definition of ＂tongues＂ has significantly changed even in glossaism due to embarrassment, not exegesis of Scripture. - In 1 Corinthians 14, the Apostle Paul was attempting to eliminate the same pagan, counterfeit ＂private prayer language＂ version of ＂tongues＂ that is occurring today. - Glossaism has no answer for the Apostle’s clear statement: ＂Tongues are a [miraculous] sign for unbelievers＂ (1 Cor 14:21). Rather, the counterfeit version today makes Christians look crazy, just as Paul warned. - The early Church testified universally to the cessation of the gift of tongues. - Legitimate explanations for the current ＂tongues＂ phenomena are alarming.
