Tongues at Corinth: Languages, not Ecstasies!

 

 

Paraphrase on ‘tongues’ in I Corinthians 14:6-9

Continued Paul: ‘If I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you — except I shall speak to you either by revelation or by knowledge? … Even lifeless things which give off sounds, whether pipe or organ, unless they give off a distinction in the sounds — how shall what is piped or harped be known? For if the trumpet gives an uncertain sound — who shall prepare himself to the battle? So likewise you, unless by the tongue you utter words easy to be understood — how shall that which is being spoken, be known? For you shall be speaking into the air!’
