In this episode of Off The Record, Daniel Kolenda continues his series on "The Heresy of Cessationism" asking the question in part 4: "Has the gift of speaking in tongues ceased?"
By dissecting key passages from 1 Corinthians 14, Daniel challenges the Cessationist belief that glossolalia in the New Testament is referring exclusively to unlearned, human languages. Instead, he presents a compelling case that tongues, as described in Corinth, are primarily a spiritual language that “no one knows.”
Daniel also offers a rebuttal to the common cessationist idea that there is no justification for enjoying tongues in a private, devotional, personal edification capacity.
Finally, Daniel shows how the 1 Cor. 14:22 does not teach that tongues intended to convince Jewish unbelievers of the truthfulness of the Gospel as many cessationists claim.
