Tongues

The gift of Tongues has three purposes within the assembly of Christ Followers: 1) to be used during periods of prayer, allowing the holy Spirit to pray through the Christ Follower when he/she does not know how to pray (Romans 6:26, 27); 2) to receive divine messages from God for the benefit of the assembly of Christ Followers understanding that someone with the gift of Interpretation of Tongues must be present to interpret (1 Corinthians 12:10, 28 and 1 Corinthians 14:13-19); 3) the final purpose of tongues is to enable a person to speak an unlearned language for the purposes of evangelism (Acts 2:1-13). In all these formats, the Holy Spirit may choose to use the “tongues of men or angels” (1 Corinthians 13:1). The sole purpose of the gift of Tongues is to communicate God’s love to others.
