Quote by Daniel Schwindt

“Modern man is an island, in a historical sense. Every society born of revolution is an island, and it is an island that floats, like a thin film on the surface of history. He is always moving, disconnected from all that came before him, and never holding still long enough to strike the roots necessary to pass something on to those who will come after.”

“Speaking in tongues is a language of spiritual expression, not meaningless babbling. The Bible describes it as speaking in languages known to God, but not necessarily to humans (1 Corinthians 14:2). This gift allows believers to communicate with God in a deeper way. It's a sign of the Holy Spirit's presence and work in a believer's life. Notably, Jesus' speaking after the Holy Spirit descended at His baptism was not in unintelligible sounds, but rather declaring God's praise and will. Similarly, the disciples' speaking in tongues on Pentecost was in known human languages, declaring the wonders of God (Acts 2:4-11). Let's focus on understanding and using this gift in love and order, recognizing its purpose is to edify oneself and the church through spiritual growth.”
