Mr. Andy Underhile: Chyrsostom & Augustine on Pentecostalist Babblers

 
These Pentecostalist Babblers, asserting their divine prerogatives, intruding themselves forcibly on others, disrupting the peace and unity of Christ's churches, erroneously exegeting Acts 2 and 1 Cor. 12-14, misreading the Abrahamic covenant (and other Old Testament prophets), asserting their Diotrephian and Corinthian supremacy quite odiously, and debating words for gain, profit, an audience, narcissistic privilege, gross self-indulgence, and a generally rudeness...they deserve what we give them: STRENUOUS AND UNREMITTING REBUKES! WE'LL FIRE AT WILL!  IF YOU ARE A BABBLER AND PENTECOSTAL, YOU WILL HATE ME AND I WILL STILL BE REBUKING YOU TO WARN OTHERS. YOU WILL HATE AND I WILL WARN THE SIMPLE.  HUCKSTERS!

Chrysostom - writing on 1 Corinthians and the gift of tongues said, "This whole place is very obscure; but the obscurity is produced by our ignorance of the facts referred to and by their cessation, being such as then used to occur but now no longer take place. And why do they not happen now? Why look now, the cause too of the obscurity hath produced us again another question: namely, why did they then happen, and now do so no more?" (AD 347-407). Homily XXIX. 1 Corinthians

Augustine - comments on Acts 2:4: "In the earliest times, "the Holy Ghost fell upon them that believed; and they spake with tongues," which they had not learned, "as the Spirit gave them utterance." These were signs adapted to the time. For there behooved to be that betokening of the Holy Spirit in all tongues, to shew that the Gospel of God was to run through all tongues over the whole earth. That thing was done for a betokening, and it passed away." Homily 6 on the First Epistle of John
