I think that the tongues of 1 Cor 12-14 were generally non human languages (and hence the need for the gift of interpretation). Don Carson's 'Showing the Spirit' is really excellent on all this. I will lend either of you a copy if you guys want. <br />Guys, thanks for your comments to the blog.

There are books of Scripture not written by Apostles (Luke, Mark, Hebrews,James, Jude). We have no evidence that Luke, Mark, James and Jude were recognised as prophets. There is no evidence that the gift of tongues was used in the inspiration of scripture. The bulk of Agabus' prophesies do not make it into the body of Scripture. <br /><br />As for the gift of tongues, are we sure that they were always or mainly recognisable languages?Mr Vealehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12931446615905211560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-815187212465418058.post-88845935542564826452010-09-17T18:14:25.010+01:002010-09-17T18:14:25.010+01:00David must have been in Kenya before the last Apo...David must have been in Kenya before the last Apostle died and they closed the cannon of scripture.nickdmcknight@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01808473267381357008noreply@blogger.com
