This is just what i needed today! Now i can impress the head pastor

I guess I need to speak in tongues so I can express the right words to a person that has offended me or I don’t necessarily like? So does that mean God speaks through individuals to reconcile relationships with other people? I mean if I am a follower of Christ I don’t need a prophetic word to ask for forgiveness. Kinda seems like they are mis-using the importance of the Holy Spirit. The spirit of God within me compels me to forgive as Christ did. Anywho, I don’t like that the young lady said she didn’t understand it completely but something to the tune of resting. I am pretty sure that when God speaks you understand especially if tongues is being interpreted. Thoughts?

sounds like she is singing a poorly articulated “kyrie elision”

Ew. Ew. Ew.

I couldn’t even watch all of it.

It was causing a trembling in my soul.

All I can say is, what the hell was that???

So are u against singing and speaking in tongues? Or are you saying that you think that they misused it here? I haven’t got to watch but a minute of the video so I was curious.

What the F? That was the most disturbing thing I have seen in a looooonnngg time!

I figured this had to be Bethel Church in Redding, California.
Is that how Kim Walker learned?

Maybe she thinks TBN is going to do a knock off of American Idol

This is just…weird.

You can’t “learn” to speak in Tongues, you receive it as the Holy Ghost gives the utterance.

You, too can speak in tongues! Repeat rapidly:

disturbing, couldn’t make it through the whole clip. that is what we call peer pressure.

I can’t even watch that for more then a minute!! Ugh!

only watched a bit. pretty bizarre. the lady in the first 18 seconds sounds like she is saying “kill the nation” over and over again.

How about hetieyoutieheuntomybowtie!

dude speaking in tongues is getting hipper.

That’s Bethel School of Supernatural Worship. I was there. Yeah, I attended. Yeah, I sang. Sometimes I sang in tongues (Yeah, I believe that the gifts of the spirit mentioned in 1 Corinthians are still vibrant and active today. I also believe that there are a right and wrong way to use them.)

You should understand that these are closed sessions, they aren’t recorded. This is some random attendee’s video. They aren’t teaching people to go randomly do this on the street. This is taught (in context) to supplement your prayer life and is modeled after Paul’s “praying in the spirit and with the understanding and singing in the spirit and with understanding.”

It is VERY weird when you view it in this context, but I imagine Jesus teaching his disciples how to pray would’ve been a little awkward to look at too if you viewed it as a random youtube clip.

Just a thought. I mean, I understand the stuff about people being freaked out if they don’t believe in speaking/singing in tongues, I just wanted to offer some perspective from the other side of the “disturbing” comments.
