They Heard Them Speak With Tongues

They Heard Them Speak With Tongues

We do not see tongues anywhere is Scripture as something that is taught. Tongues is a gift that comes from God. Here in Acts 10, we see the Gentile believers being given the ability to speak in tongues as a sign to the Jewish believers that the same Spirit had fallen upon the Gentiles as fell on the Jewish believers in Acts 2.

Does 1 Corinthians 13 indicate that with the closing of the canon of Scripture that the gift of tongues will cease? The use of the word “perfect” in verse 10 is often taken to mean this by cessationists. However, in 1 Corinthians 1 would indicate that the “perfect” to come is most likely to be Jesus in His second coming.
