Teaching To Speak In Tongues

I have often heard the complaint that certain groups (usually Charismatic) teach people how to speak in tongues. Have you seen this? What is involved?

Haven't seen it myself.

If he had stuck his finger in my mouth I would have bitten him.

Oh gosh, that too. Don't get me started on the guys that wave their fingers infront of someone's mouth as if they are doing a spiritual operation to get that tongue to move. Or the guy that rubs his finger up and down someone's throat....

Then there are the back rubbers....as if that seeker is about to puke their guts out and need our comfort. If you come and rub my back Im gonna have a hard time focusing on God

  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

LOL! I remember some of those when i was a kid..One way to cure them was to take off spining like a top and bulldoze through them. First year I did it, it was fun watching them move. the 2nd year at camp, well, that year it was God moving. But looking back, the almighty ticklers still got out of the way when I would come to pray!

Now days I usually just would look at them and tell them, I am not a scratching post!

Re: Teaching To Speak In Tongues

I heard a pastor recently tell a kid 'lalalalalala..say that......lalalalala'.

He later reported that she'd received the Holy Ghost. I was floored.

I've heard of "seekers" being told, "just say Jesus, Jesus, Jesus until you lose your tongue."
