Prophecy (In Tongues)

“Behold, I send my messenger, and he will prepare the way before me. And the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple; and the messenger of the covenant in whom you delight, behold he is coming, says the Lord of hosts” ( Malachi 3:1, English Standard Version). Malachi 3:1 is a passage that often brings up dispute and conversation among interpreters and scholars on whether or not it is a key predictive messianic text. This passage has been cited in the New Testament by Jesus, and refers to undefined messengers of YHWH. Through the article “ Is the Messiah Announced in Malachi 3:1?”, Malone breaks down the text by clarifying the characters and evaluating the titles used to identify the messianic connection.

So what do interpreters who understand tongues as ecstatic utterance do with Acts 2? Those who believe that tongues can be either foreign languages or heavenly languages have no trouble

The purpose of this paper is to research and analyze the preterist and futurist views of interpreting the Book of Revelation and determine which view provides the most accurate Biblical interpretation. As Richard L. Mayhue states, the "word 'preterist' comes from the Latin term praeteritus which basically means 'past' in regard to time." A preterist interpretation of the Book of Revelation, therefore, asserts that incidents described therein have already come to pass. A futurist interpretation, on the other hand, suggests the opposite namely, that Revelation is a prophecy of things to come.

“ I want that quiet rapture again. I want to feel the same powerful, nameless urge that I used to feel when I turned to my books. The breath of desire that then arose from the colored backs of the books, shall fill me again, melt the heavy, dead lump of lead that lies somewhere in me and waken again the impatience of the future, the quick joy in the world of thought, it shall bring back again the lost eagerness of my youth. I sit and wait.”

Jesus tells of how the lord will send a messenger to prepare the way for the second coming. He also explained the importance of tithing and how we will receive blessings.

The second prophecy that resurfaced originated in Ezekiel chapter thirty-seven with the fulfillment the Israelites returning to the area they originally lost control over. “Then God said to me, “Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Listen to what they’re saying: ‘Our bones are dried up, our hope is gone, there’s nothing left of us.’ But God says: I’ll dig up your graves and bring you out alive—O my people! Then I’ll take you straight to the land of Israel. When I dig up graves and bring you out as my people, you’ll realize that I am God. Then I’ll lead you straight back to your land and you’ll realize that I am God. I’ve said it and I’ll do it.” (MSG Bible) Similar to the message provided in the first prophecy, this

The gift of Tongues has been becoming more and more popular over the past 10 years. Christians appear to have differing views on the matter. Some think it is a sign of the HOLY SPIRIT, other think it is a manifestation of demonic forces. There are Bible verses to

Throughout the book of Revelation, we see through Johns visions how God will fulfill his promises in the second coming. He beings the chapter by saying, “Just as God fulfilled his promises in the first coming of Jesus, so he will fulfill his promises about his second coming. Jesus will come again and complete God’s eternal plan of salvation; he will introduce the perfected kingdom” (147). At the end of Revelation, we see a glimpse of how magnificent the second coming of Christ will be. Those who are saved, will never experience pain, sadness, or death ever again; Christians will be reunited with the Father. While all of this is yet to come, we must remain faithful to God and anticipate his second

First I want to say these two essays “ speaking in tongues and Search of our Mother’s Gardens” are very strong stories were it reflect the struggles of the women in our society by giving an idea and feeling of their lives. The essay “Speaking in tongues: a Letter to third world women writers by Gloria Anzaldua”, it really got my attention in different ways. It is a very strong essay how I mention before were it portrays the common problem that all these different woman’s cultures face in our society, by telling us how Latinas, Asia’s, Indians and black women, are know to be categorize as “dumb dangerous beast”. I can have a voice, plus I do agree with Gloria Anzaldua, were she say that only ignorant people with no education have these wrong

This is very important. This is a revelation from Jesus himself, the anointed one. God gave this revelation to show us “what must soon take place.” And we have to take it to heart because “the

The world has become more confused than ever and this may be a sign that the End Times is drawing near, but renowned evangelist Billy Graham reminds people that they should be prepared for these times, especially for the return of Jesus Christ.

Whether they are found in the Bible or a fairy tale story book, many of the stories we all love today have one thing in common, they all contain a prophecy. But what is prophecy? A prophecy is a prediction of what the future holds for a character, whether it be to slay a dragon, become king, or even to kill one’s own father and marry their mother. Prophecies may change from one story to the next, but one thing remains constant; a character will change their attitude and outlook on life once they have heard the prophecy of what they are destined to become.

How have you seen some of these dichotomies in the life of the Church? Provide at least 1 example and subsequent explanation of what happens when one side gets emphasized (doctrine) while the other is neglected (e. love)? I grew up in the Pentecostal church where speaking in tongues was essential to be filled with the Holy Spirit. For example, a person that accepts Jesus Christ as their personal savior but does not speak in tongues is not saved. That's been contradictory to the bible and makes people believe they are not saved because they do not speak in tongues. How do you reconcile the tension that exists on such apparent dichotomies? I believe speaking tongues is not an essential element of the Holy Spirit. I think should just focus on

My friends, this reminds me of the promises, written by the prophet Joel who prophesied that in the last days God's Spirit would once again fall
