Go to Acts chapter 2 now. This is the most
Damning scripture to the parent charismatic Pentecostals yet. They use this
It's like the Matthew 7 paradigm
You know when you talk to a charismatic to like they they use Matthew 7 to try to prove to you
You can lose your salvation. It's like that's the worst scripture for you use
It's like it's like trying to use Romans 11 26 to prove that the Jews are God's chosen people
That's the that's the worst chapter you can use to try to prove that
You know and then you use Acts chapter 2 and they'll say yeah right there, you know
Tongues, okay. Now, let's see if that's true verse 1 and says when the day of Pentecost was fully come
they were all with one accord in one place and suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind and it
Filled all the house where they were sitting and there appeared unto them cloven tongues
Like as a fire and it sat upon each of them and they'll say there you go clothing tongues
You're just like fire came down
That's why they that's why they speak so funny because their mouth is on fire
No cloven first of all means divided if you look at the definition in Leviticus when it's referring to the unclean animals and the
Clean animals talks about the the cloven hoof and it says the parted hoof something that's divided
well
You said why would you why would he say a cloven tongue or a divided tongue because he's they spoke like 17 different languages here
You know, we're gonna look at the list in just a little bit, but they spoke different distinct languages
So everyone did okay, and it says like as a fires it goes well, but it says like as a fire
Well, there's a reason for that because they're preaching the Word of God
I mean if you remember Jeremiah when he was discouraged what he say I will speak no more in his in his name
But his word was within my heart as a burning fire
Shut up in my bones and I could not stay that's what happens when you have the Word of God in your heart
It's like a fire
in fact
if you remember the disciples on the road to Emmaus when Jesus Christ opened to them the scriptures and
Expounded unto him on all the scriptures the things concerning himself. What did they say after they say did not our hearts burn within us?
Why he talked with us in way open open to us the scriptures. Okay, so that that's that's a
natural response and
That's a that's a that's a byproduct of having the Word of God in your heart. Okay. It's like fire
In fact, David said this in Psalms 39 verse 3. My heart was hot within me while I was musing the fire burned
Then spake I with my tongue he said, okay
