Hollywood actress Megan Fox, in a recent interview, described her experience with “speaking in tongues.” “It feels like a whole lot of energy is coming through the top of your head. Your whole body is filled with this electric current and then you just start speaking, but you’re NOT THINKING BECAUSE YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU’RE SAYING. WORDS ARE COMING OUT OF YOUR MOUTH, AND YOU CAN’T CONTROL. ... The idea is that it’s a language that only God understands. It’s the language that’s spoken in Heaven. It’s called ‘getting the Holy Ghost.’” This is the practice that passes as “tongues speaking” in these last days, but it is contrary to every Biblical test. Biblical tongues speaking consisted of human languages that were spoken miraculously without any learning or preparation (Acts 2:1-4). It was a sign to the Jews (1 Corinthians 14:20-22) and Jews were present every time that tongues were spoken in the book of Acts (2:5-11; 10:46; 19:6). Those who spoke in tongues or prophesied had control over their spirits and could stop when necessary (1 Corinthians 14:29-30, 32-33). Women were forbidden to speak in tongues (1 Corinthians 14:34-35). Tongues speaking was never a sign of “getting the Holy Spirit.” The 3,000 who were saved on the day of Pentecost, for example, did not speak in tongues. The charismatic movement with its bogus “spiritual gifts” is a major element in building the apostate one-world “church.” (Friday Church News Notes, August 30, 2013, www.wayoflife.org [email protected], 866-295-4143) Comments are closed.
