In this episode, Dr. Scott Aniol explores the biblical teaching on the gift of tongues, explaining how this miraculous gift—properly understood as the gift of languages—was given as a sign of Spirit baptism. He delves into the purpose of this gift in the early church, specifically how it pointed to the unity of all believers, Jew and Gentile, in the body of Christ. Dr. Aniol further examines the scriptural basis for the cessation of the gift of tongues, arguing that it fulfilled its purpose and is no longer in operation today.
Join Dr. Aniol as he carefully walks through key passages in the New Testament to clarify the role of tongues in redemptive history and why it is not a normative practice in the church today.
Key Topics:
• The biblical definition of tongues as languages
• Tongues as a sign of Spirit baptism and unity in the church
• Scriptural evidence for the cessation of tongues
• Why tongues are no longer a normative gift for the church
