Re: Why Imply No Tongues = No Salvation?
Jesus said that the believers would handle snakes.
Where is the insistence that we ALL handle snakes as part of passing through the birth canal of salvation?
Where is the insistence that we ALL drive out demons?
Where is the insistence that we ALL heal? Using Oneness logic, are we not "safe" until we lay our hands on someone who is sick and see that the Lord heals them?
But we insist that a person is not "safe" until the Lord confirms their new birth by speaking in tongues?
Doesn't anyone see the inconsistency in this?
In the New Testament, there is one person who plainly asks the question, "What must I do to be saved?"
Was the answer given incomplete?
According to many, yes Paul's recorded answer was incomplete and even inconsistent with the truth of God's Word. However, Paul's answer to the Phillipian jailer seems complete and consistent with all of the very plain scriptures related to salvation.
