tongues vs languages
#10
I know much of the history Jeremy....both ancient and modern....and it's of note, that the early teachers of the modern occurances of "the gift of tongues" taught that it was know human languages that were given. The Methodist, Agnes Ozman, is said to have been given the ability to both speak and even write in the Chinese Language in an instance on Jan 1st, 1901 in Topeka Kansas, at the Bethel Bible School lead by a Methodist "holiness preacher" named Charles Parham, after seeking the gift during a time of prayer and fasting, whose other student during that winter (out of forty), William Seymour, who was also a Methodist "holiness preacher" and a son of a southern states slave.

His Apostolic Faith Gospel Mission in L.A. was where all this seemed to begin, at least in the 20th century, and spread from there all around the world during an extended "revival" consisting of 3 services a day, 7 days a week, for over 3 years.

It's an interesting study to say the least...and now, with over 500 Million (half a Billion) people who claim to have this gift, being the fastest growing part of Christianity...its not an easy thing to simply say its all not of God. I endevour not to pass judgemnt on those who claim to have this gift, as we are to know by their fruit of the Spirit, not by their gifts of the Spirit, who are our true brothers and sisters in Christ.

You are of the Netzari branch right Jeremy? Are there any people who claim this gift among the Netzari? I believe I have heard of it being present in some of the Jewish Messianc communites/branches.

Shlama,
Chuck
