SIXTY-SIX THINGS A PENTACOSTAL CAN NOT FIND IN THE BIBLE by Pastor Mahan FIND THE BOOK, CHAPTER AND VERSE IN THE BIBLE THAT TEACH: 1. God commands or desires that people speak in UNKNOWN tongues. 2. There are UNKNOWN tongues spoken in Acts, Chapter 2 (Acts 2:8). 3. Pauls desire was that all would speak in UNKNOWN tongues (1st Corinthians 14:5). 4. Paul thanked God that he spoke with UNKNOWN tongues more than all others IN THE CHURCH (1st Corinthians 14:18-19). 5. Women should speak in tongues in the church assembly (1st Corinthians 14:34-35). 6. Angels spoke in unknown tongues. 7. Everyone should seek for the gift of tongues, rather than letting the Holy Spirit give utterance at a point of time dividing to every man severally as HE will (1st Corinthians 12:11). 8. Speaking in tongues is the baptism in the Holy Ghost. 9. The expression baptism IN the Holy Ghost occurs in the Scriptures. 10. All Christians are commanded by God to speak in tongues (1st Corinthians 12:30). 11. Unknown tongues are needed in an assembly where everyone speaks the same language. 12. The purpose of speaking with tongues to edify ourselves (Acts 2:4-11). 13. God commanded or desired that a man pray with an unknown tongue, although his understanding is unfruitful. 14. The baptism of 1st Corinthians 12:13 includes speaking in tongues. 15. The object of tongues is any person other than an unbelieving Jew who needs a sign, or one that underwent a previous Jewish baptism by John the Baptist (Isaiah 28:11; Acts 2:5-11, 10:45-47,19:1-8; 1st Corinthians 1:22). 16. A man cannot be deceived when he speaks with tongues (2nd Thessalonians 2:3). 17. The human spirit cannot be defiled (2nd Corinthians 7:1). 18. A man who is saved and has received the gift of the Holy Spirit cannot let doctrines of devils and deceiving spirits gain access to his mind, thereby giving place to the devil (1 st Timothy 4:1; Ephesians 4:27). 19. The body is redeemed already, and has no law of sin in its members (Romans 7:23-25; 8:23; Philippians 3:21). 20. A man can be devil possessed after he is saved. 21. We are not to forbid the speaking with UNKNOWN tongues in church (1st Corinthians 14: 39). 22. We need to practice our tongue gift daily in order to develop it, and to avoid losing it. 23. We are to seek the gift of tongues, rather than the gift of prophecy, in the church (1 st Corinthians 14:5, 39). 24. God doesnt mind people adding to His finished revelation (the Bible) if it is in the form of tongues, interpretation of tongues, or prophesy (Proverbs 30:5-6; 1st Corinthians 14:36; 2nd Timothy 4:1-4; Revelation 22:18-19). 25. Speaking five words with an unknown tongue is more profitable than speaking ten thousand words with understanding (1st Corinthians 14:19). 26. The gift of tongues is manifested by a babbling that no one present can understand, including the speaker (1st Corinthians 14:8-9). 27. A person who prays in an UNKNOWN tongue in the church assembly does not understand it himself. 28. The Holy Spirits intercessory groanings can be uttered (Romans 8:26) 29. More than one person at the same time may speak or pray in tongues in the church assembly (1st Corinthians 14:27). 30. Tongues are a sign to believers (1st Corinthians 14:22). 31. Unknown tongues are for the believer (1st Corinthians 14:22). 32. God commands or desires us to sing in unknown tongues. 33. Tongues were not to cease in and of themselves (1st Corinthians 13:8). 34. More than one in the church assembly is to interpret (1st Corinthians 14:27). 35. Tongues are not actual languages (Acts 2:6; Isaiah 28:11). 36. The fullness of the Holy Spirit is manifested by the speaking with tongues. 37. Jesus spoke or prayed in tongues. 38. You shall receive power after the Holy Ghost is come upon you, not to be witnesses unto the Lord Jesus Christ, but to babble in an unknown language (Acts 1:8). 39. The new tongues that Jesus foretold His disciples would speak with were unknown tongues (Mark 16:17; Acts 2:4-6). 40. Jesus was not serious when he said that His disciples, in addition to speaking in new tongues would be able to take up serpents or to drink any poison without it harming them (Mark 16:17;18) . And so, everyone who claims the ability to speak with tongues should also be required to drink any deadly thing. 41. The word shall in Mark 16:17-18 means sometimes or in the process of time, shall. . . 42. Others, in addition to the twelve apostles, spoke with tongues in Acts chapter 2 (Acts 1:24 - 2:1). 43. Tongues are to be a sign to Gentiles and to the Church (Acts 2:5- 11; Isaiah 28:11). 44. We are not to try the spirits whether they are of God, opposing any that are false (including tongues) as presumptuous against God Almighty (1st John 4:1-3). 45. The devil cannot do miracles (Exodus 7:11; Daniel 11:23; 2nd Thessalonians 2:7- 10; Revelation 13:4) 46. The Holy Spirit can manifest Himself contrary to the written revelation of the Scriptures (1st Corinthians 14:33) as long as the manifestation is supernatural (like tongues). 47. Besides the Old Testament saints and the original disciples, any person can receive the Holy Spirit more than once (1st Corinthians 12:13; Romans 8:9; Ephesians 1:13-14; 5:18). 48. A man who has received the Holy Spirit (Romans 8:9) is not receiving another spirit if he receives any additional spirit after his salvation (2nd Corinthians 11:4). 49. The prophecy about the Holy Spirit being poured out on ALL flesh has been fulfilled Joel 2:27-32). 50. There are Gentiles in Acts chapter 2 who arent proselytes (Acts 2:5-10). 51. Tongues in Acts chapter 2 were anything other than a clear declaration of the wonderful works of God (Acts 2:11). 52. Tongues protect us from the devil (Ephesians 6:10-20). 53. Satan is not anointed, and all that is anointed is good (Ezekiel 28:14). 54. Judas didnt have the signs of an apostle and wasnt a devil (Matthew 10:1-8; John 6:70). 55. Satan doesnt have false prophets, false apostles, and deceitful workers that transform themselves into angels of light and apostles of Christ (2nd Corinthians 12:13-35). 56. All that is spiritual is good, and we should open ourselves up to it (1st John 4:1). 57. Experience is to be taken as a higher authority from God than the written revelation of Scripture (Isaiah 8:20). 58. The Holy Spirit cannot be grieved, quenched, or lied to (1st Thessalonians 5:19; Ephesians 4:30; Acts 5:3). 59. Forbidding to speak with tongues is blaspheming the Holy Spirit (Mark 3:29-30). 60. Paul, or anyone else in Scripture, preached a full gospel (1st Corinthians 15:1-4). 61. We, rather than the Holy Spirit, decide what spiritual gifts we get, or transfer them to others by the laying on of hands (1st Corinthians 14:11). 62. Pentecost is an experience, rather than a Jewish Feast (Exodus 23:16; Acts 2:1; 20:16). 63. Jesus and His disciples sent people to doctors or erected hospitals after unsuccessful healing attempts (Matthew 10:1; Acts 5:16). 64. The tower of Babel was a good experience (Genesis 11:1-9). 65. Unknown tongues edify the church (1st Corinthians 14;4, 18, 19, 23). 66. CHARITY DOES NOT REJOICE IN TRUTH (1st Corinthians
