Around 10:09 you say it is beyond my understanding as to where the other tongues other than human languages comes from. 1 Corinthians 13:1 If I speak with the tongues of MEN and of ANGELS, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.

I was raised in a movement where speaking in tongues was supposedly a sign of being baptized with The Holy Spirit, I never believed it. They always used the books of Acts chapter 2:1-4 to teach this. They never went any further to explain verses 5-11. Acts 2:1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. 2:2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. 2:3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. 2:5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven. 2:6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language. 2:7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans? 2:8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born? 2:9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia, 2:10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes, 2:11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God. Tongues/languages was used so believers could speak to others in a language they could understand. At conversion, The Holy Spirit comes and lives in us. Proof of being filled with the Holy Spirit is fruit of the spirit Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 5:23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. This doesn't happen overnight, however, as we are seeking after God and being obedient which is through His Word, we empty more of ourselves (Galatians 5:17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. 5:18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law. 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 5:20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 5:21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God).

She's wrong about speaking in tongues. It is for today.

See Acts 10th chapter. Cornelius was a man that loved God and prayed always and gave much alms. GOd sent Peter to preach the Word to Cornelius so that he would receive the Holyghost. 44v While Peter yet spake these words, the HolyGhost fell on them which heard the word. For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Also see 1Cor. 14.2 For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God; for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries. God Bless💞

Looks like everybody is a teacher including the unbeliever. have you seen ahmed deedat?have you heard of biblical scholar bart ehrman? amazing how she say she has the gift of teaching.it is not a gift of God, it is talking ability. even zakir naik say God gives him the ability to speak publicly because he was a smutter.
