Sad to watch people do mental gymnastics with scriptures to supposedly prove THEIR belief. I was an Atheist and prayed and asked God sincerely to give me what is REAL. I told him I didn’t want to just be religious. I was filled with the living water that Jesus spoke of and praised him in a language that was unknown to me. People waste a lot of time and energy teaching falsely that tongues and miracles have ceased.

[EtinosaOsayi]

Speaking in tongues have not ceased. If the Holy Spirit still indwells believers today, then His gifts are still active. Tongues inclusive

[mrsmathews]

It would have ceased for some but not for me. It was a glorious experience for me that I can never forget all the days of my life. On December 27th, 1981, at a usual Sunday service, God baptized me with His Holy Spirit. Nobody prayed for me. It was while I was listening to the preaching of the word of God that He filled me with His Spirit, and I spoke in tongues for a very long time. It was like fountain bursting forth. My whole body became numb with the power of God. I still can feel the joy of that experience

Speaking in tongues have not ceased! Every gifts of the Holy Spirit have not ceased. I am a pastor of small church here in the Philippines I use the gift of speaking in tongues in deliverance and casting out demons and it is very effective. To God be the glory.

Derek Prince has testified in a video that he started speaking french on a boat - which he did not study, only to find out there was a frenchman near him which was word from God to this frenchman.
I got saved through watching a Derek Prince call for repentance video to a room full of people to become christians, long after Derek left this earth, so only between Paul's and Derek's testimony, I decide to believe Derek. Plus I received the gift of tongues by His Holy Majesty.
Love you all and love brother Paul. Remember, we have much more in common to hold on to rather than to be divisive over whether speaking in tongues is real or not. Love is above all!

Music in the background completely unnecessary

[emmanueljoshy]

For anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God. Indeed, no one understands him; he utters mysteries with his spirit. 1 Cori 14:2. What kind of phonetics is that?.
This gift is still there. Apostle Paul spoke in tongue more than anyone else.

[raywilson]

As being raised in a Presbyterian church that NEVER taught the new birth and being saved 9 years after leaving that church. And 6 months later being filled with the Holy Spirit I've spoken in tongues for 49 years. I love Jesus.

Paul washer is a great preacher however he completely missed on the subject of tounges. There is no biblical basis of tounges ceaseing.

[EvangelistRobertBlack]

1 Corinthians 14:14-15, I will pray both ways!! With my understanding and with the tongues

[karlcobarrubias]

So, his argument is: 1. Let's look at Ephesians and assume that Apostles and Prophets ceased, but let's ignore the inconsistency of our logic because Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers are still here today, and we wholeheartedly accept those offices. The minor changes that happened, only happened to Apostles, Prophets and tongues. Prophets can't exist because that means that we would have to write new scriptures. God never speaks directly to people anymore, and you should ignore the promise first mentioned in Joel that people will dream dreams and have visions in the last days. 2. Let's look at Acts, but let's not look at 1 Cor 12-14 for clear teachings about tongues and especially let's not look at the debunked ceasing argument in ch.13, we'll just mention it in passing. And let's not discuss the description of tongues by Paul as "not speaking to people, but to God" (12:2), but only use Acts ch. 2 to say that these are only languages spoken by a person who never learned that language even though there is not a single case in the rest of the book of Acts where tongues happen in this manner. Even Paul who said he "spoke in tongues more than you all" is recorded in Acts speaking to crowds in Greek or Hebrew and not supernaturally with the gift of tongues. And since there are abuses and fake tongues, let's discount the possibility of real tongues and ignore church history. 3. Since it looks and sounds like gibberish, there's no way it could be from God, but I don't have a verse that definitively proves that it ceased and is not for today, nor have I ever seen it in my church or churches that I have attended, but it is my feeling that it has ceased and you should take my word for it in this 3:46 minute video instead of weighing it with the scriptures, eyewitness accounts, testimonies, church history and the fruit and growth of the charismatic and Pentecostal movements while the denominational churches are shrinking and are being taken over by woke culture.

Just because Mr. Washer has not had the experience himself doesn't mean it has ceased. He needs to write out every scripture that speaks about the gift and allow the Lord to open his eyes and heart! Tongues are also used for private prayer and building ourselves up in the Holy Faith. I have seen the Lord do amazing things through that gift in spite of my personal reservations and negative opinions! The Lord, The Holy Spirit, had to educate me on it too, i was myself a sceptic! There are guidelines in scripture though, and they must be followed!

[TrevorMartindale]

“They have ceased because no one is doing that” … pretty bold claim. I was once in a service where someone who didn’t usually go to the church was visiting and suddenly started speaking a tongue. Unbeknown to her there was a man in the congregation who said she was speaking in perfect Mandarin (Chinese) - he was studying the language and asking God to confirm if he should be a missionary in Taiwan. Not only could he interpret the tongue but the message spoken out was a confirmation for him that he should go incl. detail of what he can expect to achieve & experience while he’s there. Go figure!

[sahoo]

All the cessationist should come to India's rural areas and northeast nagaland and hear the stories of uneducated tribals christian. There's tongue, healing, miracles that have given birth to many churches.

[MicahKibiwot]

I was filled by the Holy Spirit withe the evidence of speaking in new tongues on August when I was in Form 3 during a KSCF rally, a Christian youth convention in Kenya. It was great. Words can't explain.

[luis.salgado]

Tongues have NOT ceased!! So many supernatural testimonies and scripture say otherwise. My youth Pastor once went on a work business trip to Brazil, he met with clients and he prayed for the owner of a company in tongues, turns out he was speaking to him in fluent Portuguese sharing the Gospel and telling the owner of some very personal things only he would know of himself! That day he and his workers who witnessed that accepted Christ.

[concieblessed]

Noo tongues have not ceased. The dangers we face are that these Washer guys question everyone and they cannot be questioned. In these end times we must allow the Holy Ghost to be our chief mentor.

[setfreeministriesjoshsales]

I was baptized in the holy Spirit in jail and spoke in tongues when I got saved!

[awordforyouofficial]

I agree with Paul on many issues of the scriptures except for the ceasing of the gifts. If you haven't experienced it or seen it it doesn't mean that it has ceased.
There is no a strong scriptural evidence to prove his argument.
In the meantime we will keep on speaking in tongues

[judyD.]

I assure you, it has not ceased. Everything God is ALIVE. I had a sleep paralysis incident last year and once I could speak Jesus came out of my mouth then tongues. This happened after I was broken and knew I needed God like I've never known Him my whole life. A whole mindset change happened and it's been the wildest ride of my life! ❤
