The Gift of Tongues

i recieved the gift of tongues in one day..
iv'e recieved the holy spirit/born again but knew nothing about it until i actually seen a movie, but was so fasinated with it that i started researching. Once i got the biblical understanding on it i prayed for the gift of tongues (because it's already our birth right, he expects us to speak in it. it just depends on your Faith) and i DEMANDED my spirits to speak in other tongues then i just spoke but i automaticly knew it wasnt just some jiberish

I suppose I need more scripture. I like to know what the bible says about this and is it clear about it?

Hi,
Some of the clarifying scriptures would be:
1 Corinthians 12:10b....to another speaking in different kinds of tongues,[a] and to still another the interpretation of tongues.[b]
1 Corinthians 14:13......For this reason anyone who speaks in a tongue should pray that he may interpret what he says.

You said speaking in tongues is a way for your spirit to express to God with words that you yourself can't come up with. But your interepratation after your song is pretty simple, I have those words in my vocabulary. So why not speak in your native tongue?

Hi,
I tried to send you a reply in the normal way on YouTube but there was a glitch - I hope that you don't mind me sending you a private message.
With regards to this answer....
When we communicate with God in the richness of His own language we can express much more than we can in our own native language. This you rightly pointed out with the words used in the interpretation on the video.

The important thing to take note of is that the words in my language are an INTERPRETATION and not a TRANSLATION. What I am saying in my own language is a 'sense' of what I was expressing in God's language.
Do you speak in tongues?

When you look @ verse 5 Paul said he would rather have everyone prophesy. He who phrophesies is greater than one who speaks in tongues, unless he iterprets, so that the church may be edified. The reason for the gifts is for the church to be edified. And if one can not understand how can one be edified?

Cool - watch out for the 'Interpretation' video.....

There will be a video on tongues and interpretation being released in the next few days. Please watch out for it. Have you subscribed to my videos on YouTube? Alternatively, if you send me your email address you will freely receive the Gist videos each week into your mail box.
Every blessing,
Peter

In public, the person speaking in tongues should also seek God for the interpretation of what he/she says. The tongues and the interpretation then become a means through which God can bring His prophetic word to build up all who can hear.
