Have you ever wondered when speaking in tongues will cease? It will cease when all of the other manifestations cease, but let’s look at it again.

I would like to begin this chapter with a short review. For most, 1 Corinthians 12 is difficult because of how it has been queried throughout the years. I learned its great truths some 45 years ago. I am still amazed at the ignorance that still lingers in the holy spirit field, especially considering communication […]

We’ve spent a lot of time addressing the need for ‘a word of prophecy’ in the church. God has provided specific instructions for how to use this wonderful manifestation.

We are studying the subject of the usage of the manifestations of holy spirit, beginning with speaking in tongues with interpretation.

Christians have been fooled for ages.     (1 Cor 12:1 KJV) Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant. Greek New Testament translators saw fit to ignore the proper meaning of pneumatikos, from which ‘spiritual gifts’ comes.

Perhaps containing the greatest behavioral instructions, 1 Corinthians13 contains the Bible’s most concise expose on how to behave within andwithout the Family of God. While each of the Gospels and all Church Epistles provide information for how the New Christian Man is to walk, no Christian walk is complete without the overlay of an Agape […]

1 Cor 12:8 KJV Starting with verse eight, we will study the in depth accuracy of the word ‘another.’ ‘Another’ comes from one of two Greek words: allos or heteros. Allos means ‘another when two or more of the same kind are involved.’ Heteros means ‘another when only two are involved.’ In this case, the […]

As regards the manifestations of holy spirit, there are only three Bible chapters that completely detail their usage and the operation. Yet, these three chapters primarily discuss the first three manifestations. Most people have arrested a single chapter from these three chapters, but all three chapters comprise a complete set. If we pull out one, […]

The Fifth Record of speaking in tongues takes place in Acts 19 where we will be introduced to Apollos, the golden tongued orator, and Acquilla and Pricilla.
