refused; I have stretched out my hand, and

25 But ye have set at nought all my
counsel, and would none of my reproof:

mock when your fear cometh;

CHAPTER 1:

21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.

Speaking in tongues is speaking scripture lines and not babel

Speaking in tongues is speaking scripture.

On the day of Pentecost in Acts chapter 2, the Lord’s disciples received the gift of speaking in tongues and the ability to rightly divide the word of truth.
The meaning of (cloven) is divided.
The meaning of (tongues of fire) is the word of God
The meaning of the (spirit) is the word of God.
This gift of speaking in tongues by the Holy Ghost is the ability to speak scripture lines which the Lord declared when he pronounced all of the book of the Lord with his lips from the beginning in the pure language made of pure words. This language is known as Jew’s language; and the Lord’s disciples on the day of Pentecost received the ability to not only speak the word of God, they also received the gift to rightly divide the word of God. They received understanding of all the mate lines of the Lord to give the interpretation of other lines which are in question.
Whenever those with this gift spake a scripture line and their understanding of the scripture line is heard by another and this other person had no understanding, this line of scripture is known as an unknown tongue.
Now these men who came to Jerusalem to worship heard these men with the gift of tongues and they marveled because the men who spake the Jews language were unlearned Galilaeans from the northern Israel.

(note, when people are filled with the Holy Ghost, they speak the word of God with boldness.):

Acts 4:31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.

Consider the Galilaean men had a manner of speech which those in Jerusalem knew was distinct from their own:

Mark 14:70 And he denied it again. And a little after, they that stood by said again to Peter, Surely thou art one of them: for thou art a Galilaean, and thy speech agreeth thereto.

Matthew 26: 71 And when he was gone out into the porch, another maid saw him, and said unto them that were there, This fellow was also with Jesus of Nazareth. 72 And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man.  73 And after a while came unto him they that stood by, and said to Peter, Surely thou also art one of them; for thy speech bewrayeth thee.

The men who came from the other countries were called devout Jews. Their fathers were scattered by God because many married strange wives and their children could not speak in the Jews language; therefore they could not keep the commandments of the Lord. These men however came to Jerusalem to observe the feast day of the Lord and were known as devout Jews. They were devout Jews because they kept the language in which they were born. The language in which a Jew is born is the Jews language and not the languages of all these strange countries where they lived.
The language in which devout Jews are born is the Jews language; the Hebrew tongue.

What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision? Romans 3:1
Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God. Romans 3:2
For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect? Romans 3:3
God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged. Romans 3:4

(Now read the following words of Nehemiah and Acts chapter 2 with the above in mind.)
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
In those days also saw I Jews that had married wives of Ashdod, of Ammon, and of Moab:  Nehemiah 13:23
And their children spake half in the speech of Ashdod, and could not speak in the Jews’ language, but according to the language of each people.  Nehemiah 13:24
And I contended with them, and cursed them, and smote certain of them, and plucked off their hair, and made them swear by God, saying, Ye shall not give your daughters unto their sons, nor take their daughters unto your sons, or for yourselves.  Nehemiah 13:25
Did not Solomon king of Israel sin by these things? yet among many nations was there no king like him, who was beloved of his God, and God made him king over all Israel: nevertheless even him did outlandish women cause to sin.  Nehemiah 13:26
Shall we then hearken unto you to do all this great evil, to transgress against our God in marrying strange wives?  Nehemiah 13:27
Remember, I beseech thee, the word that thou commandedst thy servant Moses, saying, If ye transgress, I will scatter you abroad among the nations:  Nehemiah 1:8
But if ye turn unto me, and keep my commandments, and do them; though there were of you cast out unto the uttermost part of the heaven, yet will I gather them from thence, and will bring them unto the place that I have chosen to set my name there.  Nehemiah 1:9

And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. Acts 2:1
And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. Acts 2:1
And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. Acts 2:2
And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. Acts 2:3
And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. Acts 2:4
And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven. Acts 2:5
Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language. Acts 2:6
And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans? Acts 2:7
And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born? Acts 2:8
Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia, Acts 2:9
Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes, Acts 2:10
Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God. Acts 2:11
And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this? Acts 2:12
Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine. Acts 2:13
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
The Lord’s disciples spake only one pure language and the precepts of the Lord are known as tongues, as stammering lips and another tongue. Peter admonished these devout Jews speaking only in one language, the pure language known as the Jews language and the devout Jews heard Peter saying the following in the same language in which the disciples spake:
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words: Acts 2:14
For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day. Acts 2:15
But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; Acts 2:16
And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: Acts 2:17
And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy: Acts 2:18
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
The spirit of the Lord is his word, his manner of speech, the language of God and not of man, nor of the flesh, nor of other strange countries.

It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. John 6:63
Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. John 17:17
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Speaking in tongues is speaking scripture lines. Paul’s understanding of scripture lines was unfruitful to the unlearned who heard the pure words of a scripture line or lines but they were without understanding. Every word of God is spoken in tongues by the Lord Jesus when he declared the end from the beginning and distinctly pronounced every pure word with his lips; he wrote and preserved every jot and tittle for all generations so that every person can know with certainty the words of truth.

(Isaiah 46:9,10; Genesis11:1; Zephaniah 3:9; Psalm 12:6,7; 33:11; 89:34; 68:11; Hebrews 12:2; Proverbs 22:20,21; Acts26:14,15; Matthew 4:4; Isaiah 34:16,17; Hosea8:12)

The apostles received the gift of tongues and the talent to rightly divide the word of truth by the Lord Jesus when cloven (divided) tongues of fire descended upon them.

Nevertheless these ye shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the cloven hoof; as the camel, and the hare, and the coney: for they chew the cud, but divide not the hoof; therefore they are unclean unto you. Deuteronomy 14:7

Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts. Isaiah 28:9
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little: Isaiah 28:10
For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people. Isaiah 28:11
To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear. Isaiah 28:12
But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken. Isaiah 28:13

Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces? Jeremiah 23:29

And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. Acts 2:3

I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all: 1 Corinthians 14:18

Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. 1 Corinthians 14:14
Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue. 1 Corinthians 14:19
Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee. Psalms 51:13

If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret.
1 Corinthians 14:27

And they said unto him, We have dreamed a dream, and there is no interpreter of it. And Joseph said unto them, Do not interpretations belong to God? tell me them, I pray you. Genesis 40:8

I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all: 1 Corinthians 14:18
Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue. 1 Corinthians 14:19

This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. Joshua 1:8

As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed’s seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and for ever. Isaiah 59:21

It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. John 6:63

To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them. Isaiah 8:20
For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life: Proverbs 6:23

As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction. 2 Peter 3:16

If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; 1 Timothy 6:3
He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, 1 Timothy 6:4

CHAPTER 16:

19 ¶ There was a certain rich man, which
was clothed in purple and fine linen, and
fared sumptuously every day:
20 And there was a certain beggar named
Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of
sores,
21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs
which fell from the rich man’s table:
moreover the dogs came and licked his
sores.
22 And it came to pass, that the beggar
died, and was carried by the angels into
Abraham’s bosom: the rich man also died,
and was buried;
23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in
torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and
Lazarus in his bosom.
24 And he cried and said, Father
Abraham, have mercy on me, and send
Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his
finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I
am tormented in this flame.
25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that
thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good
things, and likewise Lazarus evil things:
but now he is comforted, and thou art
tormented.
26 And beside all this, between us and you
there is a great gulf fixed: so that they
which would pass from hence to you
cannot; neither can they pass to us, that
would come from thence.
27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore,
father, that thou wouldest send him to my
father’s house:
28 For I have five brethren; that he may
testify unto them, lest they also come into
this place of torment.
29 Abraham saith unto him, They have
Moses and the prophets; let them hear
them.
30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but
if one went unto them from the dead, they
will repent.
31 And he said unto him, If they hear not
Moses and the prophets, neither will they
be persuaded, though one rose from the
dead.

27 And beginning at Moses and all the
prophets, he expounded unto them in all

yet with you, that all things must be
fulfilled, which were written in the law of
Moses, and in the prophets, and in the
psalms, concerning me.

doctrine? them that are weaned from the
milk, and drawn from the breasts.

precept upon precept; line upon line, line
upon line; here a little, and there a little:
11 For with stammering lips and another
tongue will he speak to this people.
12 To whom he said, This is the rest
wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest;
and this is the refreshing: yet they would
not hear.
13 But the word of the LORD was unto
them precept upon precept, precept upon
precept; line upon line, line upon line;
here a little, and there a little; that they
might go, and fall backward, and be
broken, and snared, and taken.

CHAPTER 9:

16 For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.

THE FIRST EPISTLE GENERAL OF PETER.

CHAPTER 1:

11 Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.

12 Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.

Who is the author of the book of the Lord and the epistles?

THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. LUKE.

CHAPTER 1

FORASMUCH as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us,

2 Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word;

3 It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus,

4 That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed.

THE ACTS OF THE APOSTLES.

CHAPTER 1

THE former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,

28: 28 Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.

29 And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.

30 And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired house, and received all that came in unto him,

31 Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.

2 That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour:

15 And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;

16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.

9 I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not.

10 Wherefore, if I come, I will remember his deeds which he doeth, prating against us with malicious words: and not content therewith, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, and forbiddeth them that would, and casteth them out of the church.

11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.

12 Demetrius hath good report of all men, and of the truth itself: yea, and we also bear record; and ye know that our record is true.

3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.

4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

THE REVELATION OF ST. JOHN THE DIVINE.

CHAPTER 1

THE Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:

4 JOHN to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;

5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.

10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,

11 Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.

17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:

18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for  evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.

19 Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;

22: 18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:

19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
