John Bevere | Don't Forbid Speaking in Tongues

[@muemak1990]

This is some revelation. I have been ignorant but today I have been enlightened. I pray for a baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues and Interpretation. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen🙏🏽

[@RenewalCreations]

God can give that to you, and that's fine, it is biblical to seek the gifts, but make sure your heart is right before the Lord and your understanding of the doctrine. You also want to be in a place where you can handle his spirit or the gifts that he gives you, and God also wants to trust you with the gift. I would not give the gift of evangelism to someone who could not proclaim the gospel with love and humility and truth.

[@calledwriters]

Amen! I made some videos to help people who are wanting to receive the gifts of tongues and interpretation. Please feel free to check them out. God bless you.

[@ecardy23]

Don't be deceived brother. Scripture is very clear it was know languages that were spoken. Not a gibberish no one understands. What would be the purpose of the gift of tongues?

[@annemwangi2086]

This Pastor is so equipped unfortunately I just discovered him few days ago so I know I have missed a lot if his teachings, Thank God for and your family.

[@heidibremer1683]

So good John. I have to agree with the different types of speaking in tongues. The reason why I agree is because I've got the Gift of Interpretation. I've noticed when I'm praying in Tongues, Privately, it's very close and intimate, where I'm glorifying him as well as speaking wise counsel with certain things. However, Publicly, it's similar yet different where I'm glorifying him as well seeking unity and uplifting the Church as well. When I hear other people around me Praying in Tongues they're doing something similar as well. Since I can understand people around me, I rely on the Holy Spirit if I should tell them what they said in Tongues cause they don't understand what they said. I've noticed the times when the Holy Spirit mostly wants me to tell them, what they said is it's when they've said something something Prophetic and/or a Word of Knowledge.

[@gladisgreen4501]

I want to receive that gift too!!.. I speak in tongues but I'm always curious about what I'm speaking.. I want to clearly understand everything that the HOLY SPIRIT is uttering through me.. I want to know the heart of GOD to me.. Please remember me in ur prayers. :)

WOW 🔥❤ I had a similar experience , tongues as a sign .. I was visiting a salvation army church because a friend invited me to their worship team practice . I was kneeling at the alter praying quietly in tongues and a lady in a salvation army uniform spoke toe and said I was speaking perfect Hebrew .. I do not know Hebrew. She was weeping , it was a sign for her

[@chere3695]

Very deep, very amazing, scriptural based message. I thank God that all us believers can go deeper and spiritually and not remain in the elementary things. I have shared this. Thank you for breaking this down so wonderfully! God bless this ministry. I started thanking God because one time when I was driving on the highway, I got the urge to pray in tongues so I did. Not even a min or two later, traffic started building up heavy. I didn’t know why. I then passed an accident. Broken glass were everywhere, ambulance, and it appeared to be a bad accident. I felt the presence of God heavy and realized I was interceding for the person/people in that accident. I prayed in English and tongues, tears streaming down my face and asked the Lord to bring the person to repentance, I asked the Lord for a miracle, and then I continued to pray in tongues. The enemy doesn’t want the gifts of the Holy Spirit in operation because he wants us believers to be bound and feel helpless, which is only his trap to try and get us to turn away from God. But the power of God is the strongest and greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. He gave us power to live right and walk according to His standards. The fruits of joy, love, peace are ours. Praise be to the Lord Jesus, the Alpha and Omega. Many people still don’t believe in that gift but we cannot deny what’s written in the Bible. We can believe the sky is yellow, but if the sky is blue, it doesn’t matter what we say, the truth is that it’s blue. The truth of the Bible is truth and God is very real. This message came just when I was speaking to the Lord about wanting to go deeper. Blessings

[@gloriaharlowdrummondjesusi7306]

The early church fathers say that tongues went out in the 4th century but I know they are real. However there are demonic tongues too. We have to test the spirits. Amen brother. Thank you for this video

[@BlessedBeni]

Speaking in tongues is so underestimated!!! From my personal experiences, speaking in tongues has helped me fight spiritual battles, turn a room's hateful atmosphere to calm (in moments), overturn Satan's plans in front of my eyes... and so much more! There's A reason why this is called "talking mysteries with God , by the Holy Spirit" --> Satan has no influence on this mode of prayer. It demolishes the invisible strongholds of the devil.

Wow! This is by far, the best teaching on glossolalia I’ve ever heard! If there’s more out there, someone point me in the direction please!

[@RenewalCreations]

I believe and can speak in tongues but they either get overemphasized or under in the church..Either people put so much emphasis on it that they completely disregard my salvation and acceptance of Christ as sufficient or they don't believe in it at all. Kind of like adding circumscision in the new testament.

[@eshanweerasinghe7100]

Very persuasive argument for tongues for unbelievers (a language they understand) and tongues subject to interpretation. However, in the original Greek same word “glossa” is used for both; so how would the original audience have understood the distinction? So this fine explanation is not scripturally supported. For the record, I do speak in tongues (especially in prayer and praise), but no longer do so in public since I cannot interpret and have never found an interpreter. God bless!

[@skyeprophet3564]

Why don't you pray for the power to interpret? 1 Cor 14:13 - If God prompts you to speak out in tongues and gives you the opportunity, he will also give you the ability to interpret according to your faith. God could surprise you... let him lead you in this and put it to him and see what he shows you.

This is very interesting. And how about in earlier Hebrew?

[@aubriellemorgan]

It is scripturally supported if you read the Bible

I considered being filled with the spirit actually being filled with the fruit because I have met some of the rudest, overbearing, impatient people who can speak in tongues or prophecy but they are too busy yelling or talking to listen to God or others.

[@delphiniapickett2934]

Yes. I get it. Is this the Spirit of God or what ?? I meet someone so sinful unrepentant. Yet some day he speaks in tongues . I am ??!

[@letrianov]

Fruits are the result of a process happened to the root and other parts of a tree. Speaking in tongue is never mentioned as a sign of righteousness or moral level. Contrary to that, the Bible encourages people to BUILD themselves by speaking in tongue. That means speaking in tongue are for people who believe they need to build themselves so they can bear fruits. If anyone can bear fruits without speaking in tongue, they might not need to. But they have to be sure that what they call as "fruits" are also what God really calls as fruits. Cause there's no do-over in the judgement day.

[@Est-id5ip]

So good. I’ve heard many stories about these different types of tongues as well. I have the gift of interpreting and oftentimes God uses it to prophesy over somebody. I’ve also felt the need to pray in the spirit more times than I can count over myself and others.

[@robertcain3426]

I am baptised in the Holy Spirit, have spoken in tongues and prophecied. Yet, this teaching is not supported by any of the apostle's teaching. Perhaps the point Paul is making about, if everybody is speaking in tongues in a meeting and an unbeliever comes in, they will think you are mad' because it would sound just as a lot of incoherent babble. As it indeed does, without an interpretation. Those who speak in tongues in church might be edifying themselves but no one else. And Paul is saying, the purpose of church is to build one another up in the knowledge of Christ. In the modern church, people go to get edified/built up. Instead of going to give edification and building up. So, there may be four defined aspects to tongues, they are the same tongues and not four diffetent ones.

[@StEpHeNno22]

5:40: Question: In Acts 2:13, when some said "They're drunk with wine," is that not like saying that someone speaking in tongues for a sign sounds out of their mind/mentally impaired? I agree with other points, like v. 2 saying "no one understands him," which is definitely contradictory to tongues for a sign, because it can't be a sign if no one recognizes it as an earthly language, therefore it must be a heavenly language, but on this point about vv. 22-23 I don't think he makes a strong argument for a distinction.

[@mamiazy]

Wow awesome I was also in a christian camp and there was a girl beside me praying in tongues I was just wondering she was repeating a french sentence I told her do you know french She said no I told her you just repeat this "j'ai soif" and it means I'm thirsty she said I'm really thirsty 😊 I was like wow !

[@christianelgin5150]

So if God allows you to speak in tongues as a sign, does that also mean God will give you the ability to understand an earthy language if there isn't someone gifted in interpretation of tongues?

[@suzannemartin6817]

@ John Bevere I wish that you would have gone farther and looked at how chapter 14 compares and contrasts tongues and prophecy for nearly the entire chapter. I have questions …like what is the other kind of prophecy? I know that sounds weird but if you read the first 33 verses out loud and thoughtfully you will see what I mean. 🙂 look at vs 20-25. Just so want to be able to point and say “this here”. But I’m not quite there yet.

[@justletmetravel]

At the end you mention more on this in the next video not sure what the next video is as this video does not have a number

[@TorahisTRUTHPsalm]

Scripture clearly says when in church only 2-3 people are to speak in tongues and then you MUST interpret otherwise you are to NOT speak in tongues, How many churches do that ?? I have never been to one.

[@carilynn7043]

Where can I find the rest of this teaching?

[@dianakup5543]

Can I ask though just wanting some clarification. As some say it’s not that they’re speaking a foreign language it’s that the person is hearing a foreign language. If the person was speaking fluent French could anyone potentially understanding French hear it too. Or were they speaking a heavenly language and the individual was hearing French, as the prayer may have been directed towards them. Just trying to understand. Thanks

[@schizoid262]

Where in the Bible does it talk about “heavenly languages”? I’m not trying to argue I’m just genuinely curious

[@aubriellemorgan]

He gave you the scriptures. Listen to the other videos he did in this series as well. Also check out Romans 8:26-27. Can’t remember if he mentioned that one.

Over reading into the scripture... while i believe in the gift of tongues.. it is a language and not everyone will speak in tongues

[@ecardy23]

The word says Speak With Tongues. Not speak in tongues. There's one 1 tongues in the bible they are talking about. It was the gift of speaking a foreign, known language no one has studied. This was used for the purpose of reaching the nation's with the gospel in there language. The way tongues are presented in the pentacostal and charismatic is actually a mockery to the true gift the holy spirit gave. This is false doctrine. There's only 1 tongues the bible never says there's more than 1 and definitely not 4 pf them. It's misinterpreting scripture. Sad!

[@michaelray5826]

The gift of prophecy can be revealed to a believer through dreams, visions, or hearing from God directly. One gift but many ways it can manifest

[@paulk5311]

the very last part of this message is for you. go back and listen again at his last statement.

[@ecardy23]

@@michaelray5826 if God is still speaking to us outside of scripture today through dreams, visions, or hearing from Him audibly. Then that should be just as authoratative as scripture itself. What God speaks is true and if I come to you saying God has told me "this" and "that". Then you would have to take my word for it, because it came from God. But in Hebrews 1:1 it shows God speaks to us through His son Jesus. Meaning scripture is how God speaks to us today. No More the way it once was during the time of the apostles, through visions and dreams and audibly.

[@ecardy23]

@@paulk5311 I wish you all spoke with tongues but rather you prophesy. Is the whole scripture. Why would paul say that? Is it because it's better for someone to know more than one or two or three known languages or is it because he wants all to speak in this gibberish that no one understands. The book of Acts is clear as to the languages that were Spoken and Heard. The gift of tongues has ceased because there's no use for them now. It was for a time and season and purpose. What would be the gift of tongues purpose us today if I may ask you?

[@michaelray5826]

@@ecardy23 not so. 1 Thessalonians 5:20 says otherwise. It says don’t treat prophecies with contempt but to test them. Hold on to what is good reject what is evil. So people csn lie and say God said and we aren’t supposed to except it as truth but to test it.

This is so fascinating. I do find a lot of speaking in tongues sounds kind of Arabic or like Hebrew or something. Anyone know why this is? Does it still sound like that if it is a German person doing it, or Japanese or Icelandic??

[@darthjedi99]

Speaking in tongues are for unbelievers to preach the gospel in another language and Paul says not so speak in tongues in 1 Cor 14 and tongues ceased have ceased in 1 Cor 13. Tongues are a lesser gift and have stopped but we can still preach the gospel. What is the difference praying to God in gibberish or English? Hes totally wrong, tongues were for some 1 Cor 12. Just bad bad teaching. This is just nonsense teaching he even contradicts himself. We don't need tongues to pray to God or pray for other.

[@aubriellemorgan]

Wrong. Read 1 Cor 14 and Romans 8:26-27.

[@michaeloppenheimer2582]

In the day of the apostle Paul asking the question do all speak with tongues the answer is yes they all spoke with tongues. Songs is not a gift the word gift in 1st Corinthians 12 is italicized which means it's added by the translators and should read now concerning spiritual matters brother and I would not have you to be ignorant is the literal translation according to usage the word pneumaticos is translated spiritual matters !!!

[@rickybanks9024]

The tongue is the word of God. The tongue of interpretation. Five words of wisdom is better than ten thousands words of a unknown tongue. For the wisdom of God saith the blood of all the prophets shall be required for that generation. Praying in the Holy Ghost is reading and studying the word of God. Life and death is in the tongue. The word of God. Live by the sword die by the sword. Is not my word like as fire? Or a hammer that breaketh the rock to pieces. The rock is the word. God is my rock. Paul said Moses drank out of the same spiritual rock. Christ

[@donaldkohler5381]

I've been going to this church for over a year. Seems 99% people have the gift of speaking in tongues . I'm of the 1% . Almost every sermon somebody including the pastor speaks in tongues. With no interpretation. Seems 0% of the congregation have the gift of interpretation. Kinda lopsided on my opinion. So I've been praying for the gift of discernment as I would like to know if this is of God or where these tongues are coming from.

[@ashanseneviratne1826]

False Teaching. Our Experience is not higher than the Word of God. 1 Corinthians 13 8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. 13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
