Download or read book Learning to Speak a New Tongue written by Fumitaka Matsuoka and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2011-09-14 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learning to Speak a New Tongue attempts to respond to a timely question facing America today: What holds people together in a fragmented world? The response comes from a religious community that has not been very visible: Asian Americans. The author employs the threefold epistemological scaffold familiar to Asian Americans: (1) translocal value orientation embedded in the experiences of racialization, (2) a heightened sensitivity to pathos arising out of our dissonance with the societal norms and values, and (3) amphibolous spirituality, that is, a co-existence of multiple religious traditions without any resolution of their differences. The angle of vision embedded in this epistemological framework of Asian Americans' lives may well provide a clue to an alternate architectural paradigm in building a new peoplehood and to redefine democratic freedom as the historical paradigm of American peoplehood.

Download or read book Thinking in Tongues written by James K. A. Smith and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2010-06-15 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past several decades have seen a renaissance in Christian philosophy, led by the work of Alvin Plantinga, Nicholas Wolterstorff, William Alston, Eleonore Stump, and others. In the spirit of Plantinga s famous manifesto, Advice to Christian Philosophers, James K. A. Smith here offers not only advice to Pentecostal philosophers but also some Pentecostal advice to Christian philosophers. In this inaugural Pentecostal Manifestos volume Smith begins from the conviction that implicit in Pentecostal and charismatic spirituality is a tacit worldview or social imaginary. Thinking in Tongues unpacks and articulates the key elements of this Pentecostal worldview and then explores their implications for philosophical reflection on ontology, epistemology, aesthetics, language, science, and philosophy of religion. In each case, Smith demonstrates how the implicit wisdom of Pentecostal spirituality makes unique contributions to current conversations in Christian philosophy.

Download or read book Speaking in Tongues written by Kathleen Schwab and published by Called Writers Christian Publishing. This book was released on 2020-02-02 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered why your prayer language doesn’t sound like real words? And why is it so repetitive? Why does it usually start with the same few words or syllables? Maybe you’ve asked those questions at times. We’ve asked the same questions—and quite a few others—regarding the gifts of tongues and interpretation of tongues. Then we sought the Lord for understanding of these gifts and did our best to operate in them faithfully. He gave us many insights and answers, and then brought it all together in a book. That was something we never really planned. It just sort of happened. We aren’t megachurch pastors. We don’t lead multi-national ministries. But we did have a calling from the Lord to write a book and spread a message. What exactly is that message? Speaking in tongues and interpreting tongues are powerful gifts with practical use for everyday people like us. When people operate in these gifts, God blesses the person operating in the gift, but He also blesses the people around them. Other Questions We Explore in the Book: What does speaking in tongues feel like emotionally? What is the purpose of speaking in tongues? What are the benefits? How does the gift of interpretation work? Are biblical tongues earthly languages, or heavenly languages? Or both? We invite you to explore these questions with us, as you read through our book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ChallengeWe are going to present (and prove) a number of concepts in this study that are new and even revolutionary to the student of speaking in new tongues. Among these concepts are:• All men have (passively) spoken in tongues from birth, even before they spoke in their native tongue. This includes non-Christians.• Speaking in tongues is a natural and normal thing to do.• People were (actively) speaking in tongues hundreds of years before Christ was born.• New tongues are not real languages and cannot be understood by any man. They can be understood by God because of His power.• The believers in Acts Chapter Two were not speaking in new tongues.• Jesus spoke in new tongues.• By speaking in new tongues one can commune with God, heal the sick, and raise the dead.• You can learn to (actively) speak in new tongues, and do it at will.• Speaking in new tongues is for all intents and purposes gibberish. It is gibberish that only God (by His supernatural power) can understand.• A spiritual thing is not necessarily a supernatural thing.• Speaking in new tongues is a “merely spiritual” manifestation as opposed to a supernatural manifestation.• Speaking in new tongues is not “diversities of tongues”. • “Diversities of tongues” is both a spiritual manifestation and a supernatural manifestation.• Speaking in tongues is a co-operative effort between the spirit and the soul.Numbers. It is estimated that:• 600 million humans believe in the practice of speaking in tongues. • As of April 2006, 500 million humans practice speaking in tongues. • The number of those speaking in tongues has increased 168 million since 1988. • Denominations that promote speaking in tongues add 20 million converts to their pews each year.• 100 million Catholics identify with the Charismatic movement and speaking tongues. • If these statistics are true and continue. By 2025 there could be over 1.14 billion believers who practice speaking in tongues.
