Am confirmat ca fiind adevărate unele lucruri rele din confesiunea mea (pentru că erau adevărate)
Am respins unele acuzații la adresa bisericii mele (pentru că erau nefondate)
Nu am vorbit niciodată de bine cultul meu. ( încă... :1:)

Tu te-ai rugat Maicii Domnului iar m-am rugat lui Dumnezeu
In cazul tău a fost o experiență singulară, în cazul meu una repetată.

Tu zici:am laudat pe Maica Domnului in limbi. Eu îl laud pe Dumnezeu în limbi
Tu zici: Am auzit glasuri multe. Nu întotdeauna dar în unele ocazii am auzit glasuri din cer
Tu zici: am văzut ingeri in ceruri, in cateva fractiuni de secunde. Nu întotdeauna dar într-o astfel de experiență am văzut mii de îngeri cântând laude lui Dumnezeu.
Tu zici: Am STIUT ca-i zic Maicii Domnului tot timpul. ȘTIU când vorbesc în alte limbi că îi vorbesc lui Dumnezeu și El mă ascultă
Tu zici: Stiam ca o laud pe Maica si "am vazut" ca o laud. Știu că îl laud pe Dumnezeu și „văd” că îl laud

Pacat ca s-au dus pe pustii aliniatele in postul asta:)

Citat:

Felicitas Goodman, a psychological anthropologist and linguist, studied a number of Pentecostal communities in the United States, Caribbean and Mexico; these included English, Spanish and Mayan speaking groups. She compared what she found with recordings of non-Christian rituals from Africa, Borneo, Indonesia and Japan. She took into account both the segmental structure (such as sounds, syllables, phrases) and the supra-segmental elements (rhythm, accent, intonation), and concluded that there was no distinction between what was practiced by the Pentecostal Protestants and the followers of other religions.[9]

Citat:

In 2006, the brains of a group of individuals were scanned while they were speaking in tongues. Activity in the language centers of the brain decreased, while activity in the emotional centers of the brain increased. Activity in the area of control decreased, which corresponds with the reported experience of loss of control. There were no changes in any language areas, suggesting that glossolalia is not associated with usual language function.[10][11][12] Other brain wave studies have also found that brain activity alters in glossolalia.[13]

Citat:

Some kind of hypnosis or trance has often been suggested as the explanation for glossolalia. Much glossolalia takes place in heightened states, whether in Pentecostal Christian or non-Christian contexts.[9] A New Zealand researcher, Heather Kavan,[18] found that whether a person experienced trance or hypnosis depended on the type of group with which they were affiliated. Kavan found that most New Zealand Pentecostals and Charismatics did not experience trance except during the baptism of the spirit. However, meditators in a yoga-based purification group experienced frequent intense trances, of which glossolalia was an occasional manifestation. Kavan suggested that there are two types of glossolalia– spontaneous and context-dependent– and the former is more likely to occur in groups that are radical, experiential and charismatically led.

Citat:

Our findings that glossolalia can be easily learned through direct instruction, along with demonstrations that tongue speakers can initiate and terminate glossolalia upon request and can exhibit glossolalia in the absence of any indexes of trance[…] support the hypothesis that glossolalia utterances are goal-directed actions rather than involuntary happenings.[20] That glossolalia can be learned is also seen in the traces left behind by teachers. An investigation by the Lutheran Medical Center in Brooklyn showed that the influence of a particular leader can shape a group's glossolalia: where certain prominent glossolalists had visited, whole groups of glossolalists would speak in his style of speech.[21]

Eu as fi foarte atenta cu chestia asta. Si daca ziceti ca e dar al Duhului, atunci de ce au parte de el si paganii in ritualurile lor?
