The Tongues Test

Original issueThe Heartbeat of The Remnant · March/April 2013 · Volume 19 · Number 2

In this simple test, we will ask a few questions concerning what the Bible has to say about speaking in tongues. The answers are so obvious that we will not even provide them. THINK about the answers.

  1. Jesus said we shall know them by their (fruits, gifts).
  2. We are exhorted to be filled with the Spirit, speaking to ourselves in (tongues, psalms and hymns and spiritual songs).
  3. Tongues are for a sign (to the believer, to the unbeliever).
  4. When Paul asked the question “Do all speak with tongues?” the implied answer was (yes, no).
  5. The unbelievers in Acts 2 (needed an interpreter, did not need an interpreter) to understand what those speaking in tongues were saying.
