**What ive learned so far**
1 corinthians 13:7-10
Which suggest to me that tongues will be stillled,to me meaning stopped.
**Also i found there to be two kinds of tongues.. 1.Xenoglossia: (a.k.a. Zenolalia, Xenoglossia) This is the miraculous ability to spontaneously speak a foreign language without first having learned it, or even been exposed to it. *Example of Xenoglossia Acts 2:1-13
Filled with the Holy Spirit, the believers began to speak in other languages they neither learned nor understood. The result was that many passers-by heard the gospel proclaimed in their own languages. In bewilderment, they became convicted by the message they heard and became believers in Jesus Christ.
2.Glossolalia: The Interpreter's One-Volume Commentary on the Bible defines glossolalia as: "the ecstatic utterance of emotionally agitated religious persons, consisting of a jumble of disjointed and largely unintelligible sounds. Those who speak in this way believe that they are moved directly by a divine spirit and their utterance is therefore quite spontaneous and unpremeditated. *Example of Glossolalia 1 corinthians 14:2
Iam still studing this,so i havent made any conclusions yet,but it is very interesting.If anyone knows of any other verses or studies i would appreciate them.I will post more as i find them..GOD Bless

I just wanted to see how yall interpret these..
1 corinthians 12:3
1 john 4:1-3
1 john 4:15
Do they mean if a person cant say with his mouth Jesus is the son of GOD/Jesus is Lord that they dont have the holy spirt?

I heard a story once,and i cant seem to find it now,so ill do my best to tell it in short..
There was a mom and a 5 year old girl at a baseball game whatching her son play.As they were sitting in the bleachers,a storm was brewing out in the distance.The wind started to pick up,and blew through the ball feild.The mom noticed her little girl with a smile on her face and asked what was going on,the little girl said,do you smell that?The mom answered no what is it?The girl said it is Jesus,i remember his smell from when he held me when i was sick.Needless to say the moms eyes welled up with tears as she hugged her daughter,for she remembered when she almost lost her girl 2 years before.
Well thats the basic story,i know i didnt do it justice,so if someone knows the story could you please post it?Thanks

I agree..
"God gave us these little ones for just a short time,he said there your blessing,but remember there mine.A child is more precious than silver or gold."
Just a few snipets from the song by Betty Jean Robinson,Babies dont keep..

Be careful makeing this statement..
"one more thing, i don't consider myself to be a Christian anymore therefore i am not held to the standards of the bible like you are."
So are you saying you know him, but you reject him now?
