Christian prophecy for the church and for the nations from a servant of God called to speak God’s word

Show the world you speak in tongues pentecostals!

I want to thank Alan Higgins from http://realchristianity.wordpress.com/ for this – it made me really laugh and laugh til tears were running down my face as it is just so ridiculous! It is one of the funniest things I have seen. But on the other hand, it’s not funny at all…. as it is for real in many circles, but sorry I cannot keep a straight face and stop laughing at the moment.  Especially when you read the blog entry below, which if you are like me, will set you off laughing all over again. (I am laughing at certain aspects of Christiandom and not God or the genuine gifts of the Holy Spirit before anyone accuses me otherwise! I believe in the genuine gift of tongues, but I have also seen many counterfeits of it.)

This is a Holy Ghost T-shirt in tongues!

 

‘You gotta sport your HolyGhostTees and let the world know you caught the spirit!’   the website this comes from. Holy Ghost Tees says – they also claim to be in ‘prophetic inspired’ colours. Other designs are also available!  http://www.holyghosttees.com/store.htm

Are they on the Elijah List yet? At US45.95 dollars each inc shipping and handling, they will fit in with all the rest of Steve Schulz’s tatt anointed stuff.

“Another righteous t-shirt….You start with the simple ones, of course. “E-Cal-A-Ma-She!” is a good one. Or, “E-Kum-Me-A Shun-Da!”

But as you grow in wisdom and maturity, you find yourself progressing onto exclamations such as: “Ro-Shum-Baa-Kaa-L-Le’-Lo-Cee”, or even the towering, “Hi-Pa-Pa-A-Shun-Da!” Soon, people will recognise you for the spiritual giant you are clearly becoming.

Yes, the Day of Pentecost has finally dawned on the humble t-shirt. HolyGhostTees of New York have splashed some of the most happening and holy instances of speaking in tongues on their designer t-shirts. Sadly, my own favourite praise phrase, “She-come-on-a-Honda” isn’t among them, but I’m praying they’ll be including it in the next printing.

Thrillingly, the website explains the background to each phrase. “Hi-Pa-Pa-A-Shun-Da”, for example, is “spoken with a level of authority or urgency. The power of this phrase is a Pilgrim of inspiration from Apostles, Bishops, Prophets, & Prophetess, Evangelists, Ministers, Preachers, etc.” O…K… a bit incomprehensible, but that’s the point of it all, isn’t it?”

  1. WOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWW…

    Comment by rebecca(the great) | May 18, 2008

  2. The Bible says, “FORBID NOT to speak with tongues”, but it appears, from the comments I’ve been seeing on this matter, that many want to (for all practical purposes) forbid everyone from speaking in tongues – by so defining what the true gift is, that absolutely no one can ever demnonstrate it. The idea that truly inspired PERSONAL tongues MUST AWLAYS BE (AND ONLY WAS) a common, translatable human language is just another way of demonizing everyone who ever did, or does, pray in tongues. I will soberly remind you that Jesus Christ accused certain persons of BLASPHEMY OF THE HOLY GHOST because they denounced a CLAIMED miraculous event that they (the denouncers) were not even there to see. HOW BOLD is the spirit of contempt against all things Divine in these days! What is the chaff to the wheat? If any of you want to read an ACADEMIC article that proves that the tongues spoken by the 120 in Acts 2 WERE NOT 17 different ORDINARY EARTHLY LANGUAGES, then send me a request at the above email address. FORBID NOT TO SPEAK WITH TONGUES!

  3. She needs to put on a bra!

  4. In one of his stories, J.John jokingly says “She-came-on-a-honda” and also “rubba-dinghy”! A friend of mine, who shall remain nameless, says “shandee-ba-cardi-an-coke”. How very naughty, but the whole Todd Bentley thing makes me wonder!

  5. My first thought when I seen that shirt was what does that mean? I looked at the picture first, and if it were not for the explanation of it, I would not have even stood a chance on the meaning on these shirts. How many people would have thought the same thing with no explanation? You might as well give bibles to people written in a language they don’t even understand, it would be the same thing! Or speak to people in a foreign language with no interpreter. Can you imagine having directions on how to cook, with letters in a different language? You would starve, if you didn’t know how to cook. They didnt even print the interpretation below, so what good does it even do anyone? So now they advertise their gifts using a pseudonym? Are they ashamed of the gifts if indeed they even have it? If not why not just print it for ALL to see and understand, at least in their own language. Wonder what the results of the people would be if they spoke a word from God using the same as whats on the shirts, would be? You can bet no one would show up to hear it in due time. Then what’s the point in the shirts? What they make their own interpretation, well gezzz I could do that and NO ONE could prove me wrong, for how could you? And if I nor anyone else can’t even understand the meaning on the shirts then HOW does this edify the people for God? IT DON’T IT CAN’T. People are actually paying 49.95$ each, then they’re paying for nearly NOTHING. Don’t people use their brains anymore? Are people so caught up in religious activity that they can’t even use their God given common since? The words on these shirts mean nothing except for what people want them to mean, which in turn means the shirts are only worth about 15$ at best. Someones making a killing selling these shirts, but go ahead people buy one, you got nothing better to spend your money on. But while your at it think about all the starving and unfortunate people in the world that could have used that money you just threw in the trash!!!!

  6. Good grief 50 dollars for a tee shirt? With fake tongues on it even!!

    Comment by cheryl | May 18, 2008

  7. Just for the record,I speak in tongues, and believe the Gifts of the Spirit are essential to the Christian walk and the life of the Church. Won’t be advertising the fact on a T-shirt though!

    Comment by Elizabeth A | May 18, 2008

  8. I wonder if the Apostles walked “tongues” iron-ons on their robes. Give me a break!!! It’s perverse and the fact that all the models look so seductive only adds to the perversity. a crying shame!

    Comment by pookie | May 19, 2008

  9. I meant to say walked around with…

    Comment by pookie | May 19, 2008

  10. Well, with all the “dumbing down” the generations being born now and those still to come will be buying the idea for $100 to just walk around naked like Adam and Eve right down Main Street. Never thought I would see this day either! But I am. Soap, t shirts, candy , and Don’t get me started on Music…

  11. “She-come-on-a-Honda” Sounds very dodgy to me! LOL

    The non christians use this very stuff as a way to polk fun at “tongues” speaking christians, just reminded me of a sketch in Absolutly Fabulas with Joanna Lumley and Jennifer Saunders….

    Comment by helen | July 25, 2008

  12. Dear Just another Christian,
    Yes I am with you on this. It has grieved me to see many websites demonising tongues, and saying that they were just for the early church, and that they passed away with the first apostle.
    One of them I struck up an email correspondence with said, (what I consider must be mainstream thought amongst their group) that tongues in the early church were needed to help transmit the gospel; but today we have other ways of doing it.
    I fear too, on a more general level, that Satan will have his way if he makes us suspicious of the real thing because of all the counterfiet things- I fear this will happen on a number of levels if we are not careful.
    While I am concious of the excesses of the ‘Faith’ (name it and claim it) movement there have been many revelations of bible truth to come out from it. So we should be discerning.

    Comment by Christopher | July 29, 2008

  13. I really enjoy how this web site talks about holiness but I find this article distasteful and mocking scripture concerning tongues. Speaking in tongues “edifies” the person who uses them. Using my “tongue ” changed my life and I found I grew closer to the Lord and was more sensitive and more concerned with holiness and obedience to God. Paul said, “I speak in tongues more than ye all.”

    After looking over this site is there anyone you do like and esteem in the Lord? I am really curious. Thank-you and bless you.

    Comment by mary A | August 29, 2008

  14. mary A – it mocks FALSE TONGUES. Big difference.

    Comment by endtimespropheticwords | August 29, 2008

  15. If you believe in the dispensations of christ…to speak in tongues was a very explicit time of biblical history and does not apply to our times. It had a time and a place in biblical history. I’d just as soon take up snakes. It all does just as much good. False prophets beware.

    Comment by elizabird | September 9, 2008

  16. you un-tonguesisgoodbelievers’ blindness is on your own heads, if you read corinthians, paul clearly states he speaks in thousands of un-intelligible words, and thanks God for it. Interpreting tongues is one gift, speaking in tongues is not a gift, its given to all. No man understands someone speaking in tongues, only God does, thats what the bible says.

    I never heard God or was EMPOWERED to do his will like when i started speaking in tongues. It does spiritual things, not just affecting the emotions.

    Comment by big man | September 13, 2008

  17. I think maybe the website SELLING the tee shirts are probably mocking tongues and Christians, but pretending to have a genuinely “spiritual” item to sell to superstitious and materialistic Christians. And these sellers spell “christians”: S-U-C-K-E-R-S

    Comment by DoubleGrace | September 13, 2008

  18. big man,

    Perhaps you should read Corinthians again and study some commentary. Paul’s words are:

    18I thank God, I speak in tongues more than you all;

    19however, in the church I desire to speak five words with my mind so that I may instruct others also, rather than ten thousand words in a tongue. [1 Cor 14:18-19 NASB]

    Here Paul is saying he/Paul is glad that he/Paul speaks in tongues more than the others who are glad they themselves speak in tongues. In the next verse Paul is using hyperbole in his comparison of 5 intelligible words rather than any number that some others may not understand.

    speaking in tongues is not a gift, its given to all. No man understands someone speaking in tongues, only God does, thats what the bible says.

    Please cite scripture to support this. Well, you cannot because speaking in tongues is not ‘given to all.’ Also, if no man ‘understands someone speaking in tongues’ then explain what happened in Acts 2 at Pentecost?

    Comment by Craig Dorsheimer [formerly Lee] | September 13, 2008

  19. “In the next verse Paul is using hyperbole in his comparison of 5 intelligible words rather than any number that some others may not understand.”

    This should read “any number of words in a tongue that some others may not understand.”

    Comment by Craig Dorsheimer [formerly Lee] | September 13, 2008

  20. Acts 2 is a manifestation of the gift of the Spirit, one of the nine gifts.

    Also, in response to the “5 intelligible words in CHURCH”, Paul says he thanks God he speaks in tongues more than all of them, meaning, he speaks at home, he speaks while traveling, while in worship. You can whisper your tongues and you are still in communion with God.

    But in front of the general assembly, he would rather speak in an understandable tongue to edify others! For if you speak in tongues you edify yourself. If you shout your tongues, you shout your edification.

    Comment by Joshen | April 19, 2009

  21. Good point Joshen. edify others, how hard is it? Jeez forget all the outward stuff, just love thy neighbour, help people, bless people, i think so much time can be spent on what is the Bible “saying”

    Love, Love , LOVE its not rocket science but hard ot practice
