In this MCGI topic, Bro. Eli Soriano explained the true meaning of speaking in tongues, clearing up many wrong ideas people have about it. He pointed out that speaking in tongues is a spiritual gift from God, but it’s not something every Christian will receive, and it's definitely not a requirement for salvation. It's meant to serve a purpose within the church and not just be a display of emotion or excitement during worship.
Using the Bible, especially 1 Corinthians 14, Bro. Eli showed how Apostle Paul instructed the early Christians that speaking in tongues without interpretation doesn’t help anyone. If people can't understand what is being said, it doesn’t benefit the listeners. This teaching reminds believers that it’s more useful to speak clearly and understandably in church so that everyone can learn and be strengthened in faith.
The message encourages Christians to focus on love, understanding, and living a godly life rather than chasing after spiritual signs. Not having the gift of tongues doesn’t make someone less of a believer. What matters most is obedience to God's word and a sincere heart. MCGI’s approach helps people understand that true spirituality is seen in how we live, not just in what spiritual gifts we may have.
Speaking in tongue is the language of the holy spirit which devil find it difficult to understand.
