Paul,
When I was younger I was heavy in the Catholic Church to the point of one step of entering the seminary. I started questioning the priests about that doctrine showing inconsistencies and contradictions. They couldn't answer and do what the pope says to do. I left after that type of answer. Later in the military I got involved with an charismatic church that taught the "Speaking in Tongues" but that was not wild gyrations or the confusions of many of those churches. They taught it that one at time in fellowship and 3 at most followed with interpretations. It did make sense to me at the time but after the Catholic Church and the theatrics of other demonization's I had some skepticisms. I left that organization.
They did teach Speaking in tongues for private prayer life. Here is where I am going with this question about this topic. I can speak in tongues, easy, nothing set up, without even thinking about it. I haven't for sometime with this burning question. One thing that was in scripture was that it can be in the language in man or of angels. SO with that said what is you r opinion on this topic? I have been following you , Billy, and Matthew for a while now and believe that churches have it backwards or more for control. Is speaking in tongues a slip of the tongue or is something else? I'm learning to meditate correctly and with the talks of other dimensions, our spirituality, plus other buried abilities. I hope that you have time to shed your opinion or some light on the practice.
