tongues biblicalprophecy

Summary

I became a Christian in the early 70’s during the charismatic Jesus movement. In some ways those times were exciting —seeing and hearing about God working in supernatural ways. But those days were also confusing times, particularly when it came to the spiritual gifts of tongues, prophecy, and healing. In retrospect, there tended to be an overemphasis on those gifts without balanced Biblical teaching. Unfortunately, this unhealthy preoccupation and practice resulted in division and church splits. Today, we seem to have the opposite problem. Thankfully we don’t see as much tension and division regarding these gifts. But perhaps it is because we have relegated these gifts to either the first century and/or to only certain church denominations. So how should these gifts like tongues and prophecy operate today? What is their purpose? Can anyone speak in tongues and/or prophesy? How were they meant to operate in a church? And how can we maintain a Biblical balance as we exercise these gifts? Join us this Saturday as we address these issues
