(bold is my emphasis)
"And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language.And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes,Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God.And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this? " Acts 2:1-12
The alleged "faith healers" fail to "...rightly divide the word of truth..."(2 Timothy 2:15).
Ask Benny Hinn/his "proponents" why he needs an interpreter when he has his "healing sessions' in foreign countries, such as Russia? "Back to Pentecost!" "Nyet!"
"And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them." Mt. 21:14
Ask Paul Crouch and his gang why they wear glasses?
"...mischievous madness...", I say(Eccl 10:13).
In Christ,
