		<description>Hi RoseFire,

You are very blessed and loved by God.  I would not be concerned about this one gift, when you have all those other gifts.  Each person is blessed in a different way.  Enjoy yours!

I am not sure about the link you want.  But read 1 Cor 12

I cant use tongues as gift from God... Im Deaf and I cant hear or anything but God gave me another gift instead of Tongues and Im very happy for what he already gave me.. it will bs stronger when time is come.

I have gifts of prophesy, faith and discerment of spirits. those gifts he gave me for long time.. for prophesy . mostly are Dreams, visions.

sometimes I can read what God write in my prophetic dreams.  sometimes I have to know the difference its from God or its from Satan ( bad ones).

Bad ones make the dreams look beautiful or make you feel good. its not true. I know God gave me dreams that make me feel disgusting or gross but thats his truth.

Sometimes I need depth understanding what the dreams mean or how it revealed to me. sometimes I rejected the dreams because it doesnt make sense to me. how can I understand what it doesnt make sense. its very challenging.

Thanks for allowing me to share this.. Can you send me the linkd of Signs and wonders and other spiritual gifts?

		<description>Amen, Derek.  

If scripture cannot decisively back up our position, then we need to reconsider our viewpoint.  Instead, Christians often pick over scripture so that it appears to align itself with their own ideals or worldview.  This process involves clinging to partial truths or even lies (Hosea 10:13).  None of us is above deception which is why we must fellowship with one another, challenging ourselves with the study of God&#039;s Word (Heb. 10:25; Titus 3:3; Matt. 24:11).  I commend your willingness to do so here.

I visited the second link you posted and was pleased to find that it was quite thorough and filled with God&#039;s Word.  I&#039;ve found 1 Corinthians 14:22-23 quite helpful in understanding the purpose of tongues and its place in our world today.  If someone is overwhelmed by the wealth of information found at your link, I would encourage them to thoughtfully study this passage.  

God Bless,

		<description>Hi Marianne,
Yes, &quot;where the spirit is there is liberty&quot; - this is found in 2 Corinthians verse 17. The Bible is always the source for truth.  It is the truth that sets us free! John 8:32</description>

		<description>Dear Contender,

This refers to the fire of the Holy Spirit the disciples received on Pentecost, when flames of fire came down upon them, and they spoke with other tongues.  Many people use the word baptism for this experience. It does not negate the water baptism. 

Benny Hinn was just part of the story.  Now, I wish it had been someone else.  Considering his current behavior, I do not endorse any materialism, false teachings, or practices. 

The word Jezebel here is a &quot;label,&quot; used to express a pattern of evil behaviors that was characteristic of Queen Jezebel in the old testament: aggressive, violent, treacherous, angry, liar, Baal worship (idolatry, child sacrifice/abortion, sexual sin, harvest and prosperity), domination over the male, etc.

As far as other topics, I give scriptural references along with the view.  I do not know what you are referring to exactly.  I view belonging to christ as the center of my life.  I see sin in the church and false doctrines, and I discuss it.  Christianity is failing because of the great falling away, but Jesus never fails.  

Jesus does not abandon us, if we belong to him.  If we reject him, we will end up in hell.  But that is not abandonment.  That is judgment we bring upon ourselves by rejecting Him.</description>

		<description>This is not scriptural.  When you are saved you receive the Holy Spirit.  It is Christ who baptizes you with the Holy Spirit.  There is no such thing as a second baptism of the Holy Spirit.

Also, regarding your bride book.  I was concerned with the chapter regarding Benny Hinn.  What is your current view on this television pastor?

Also, regarding the Jezebel spirit.  There is no scripture to support this premise.  Jezebel was a person in the Old Testament.  There is no Jezebel spirit.  There is sin and that is all.

Some of the other topics regarding the level of your faith.  Where in scripture are you getting all this from?  While some of what you say is true there is also an element of error in what you are saying.  You seem to have a very negative outlook on what it is to be a Christian.  If you want to know about faith being tested then I would suggest you read the Book of Job.

God does not abandon you and to tell people this is totally unscriptural.  Christ says he will never abandon or forsake you.  If you don&#039;t feel that you have a connection to Christ especially in your trials then I would have to say that you are a very immature Christian.

God is the one who sustains you through all things.</description>
