Turner discredited the statement that speaking in “tongues of the New Testament was ecstatic, nonlinguistic speech, while Luke recognized them as ‘xenolalia.’” Paul considered Xenolalia because it was unknown to the speaker. Turner argues three points in details: tongues, prophecy, and healing.
The author proceeds to differentiate between modern tongues with speaking in tongues of the New Testament. “The gifts of the Spirit are all prophetic, wisdom, revelation guidance, and oracular speech (including tongues)” Turner said that a Christian obtains those gifts even when they do not belong to a Pentecostal charismatic group. In addition, God is giving them direction to his children through prophecy. Turner talked about First Century Judaism, …show more content…
In addition, the Spirit empowers people to do a mission and gives them prophetic speech. Menzies confirms that the relation between Spirit baptism and speaking in tongues is a question of systematic theology. Since none of the Jews that were baptized with the baptism of the Holy Spirit recognized that glossolalia was the first evidence to prove the baptism. The doctrine of evidential tongues is treated in the categories of biblical theology. Fee’s arguments challenged Pentecostals. However, Pentecost fails to prove that Luke did not intend to present the occurrence of Acts so it can be as a model to future Christians. As a consequence, Menzies, considered that there are two problems since Luke did not confirm speaking in tongues as a manifestation of the baptism of the Holy Spirit. In contrast, Luke taught tongues as a standard. Fee’s argues that Luke did not consider teaching the doctrine to modern Pentecostals. Furthermore, he states that normative theology is related to Luke’s intentions to teach. Fee is basing his statement on Luke’s first intent. Luke separated the gift of the Spirit from saving faith. The question is: does everybody need to speak in tongues to be recognized as being baptized by the Holy Spirit? Some authors consider that not everybody speaks in tongues and if they do that is something personal and intimate between the person and the Spirit. Everybody possesses different gifts therefore; they can complement each other. Romans 12:5, “For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith.” Luke identifies the Spirit as a prophetic inspiration during Judaism. “Luke’s prophetic inspiration includes
