Re: The Biblical response to ACTS 2:38
I am of the belief that if tongues were the only bonifide sign a person has receved the spirit it would work
The examples in the bible, when tongues were used as a sign, it just happened. no coachng, no one told them, now you are going to speak in tongues.
We see no examples in the book at failed attempts to "Get It"
No examples of alter workers jiggling jaws, praying in seekers ears,
No examples of someone being told, that was really a nice try, you almost got it, come back and try again next Sunday night. BTW pray and fast all week and try to make yourself better or good enough so God can come into your life.
We make a mockery of grace, mercy and forgivness when we tell people they have to make themselves good enough for God to save.
While we were yet sinners, He loved us and paid for our sin.
