Just For Pastors 39: Don’t Stand in the Way of Tongues

In our last post, I said that pastors must pray in tongues. Not only that, you must not stand against tongues in your congregation. 1 Cor. 14.39 says Do not forbid to speak in tongues. So many pastors, even whole denominations today, forbid speaking in tongues. When I was in a Christian group at my university, when I was studying computing, we were told to never speak in tongues.

I have heard of pastors telling people who speak in tongues in private to leave their churches and never come back, that contradicts Scripture. You should be encouraging everyone in your church to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit and speak in tongues.
