List: Five Words Better than Tongue Talking
While there is no place or purpose for the supernatural power of tongues any longer in this dispensation there remains those who confuse the rest of us with their so-called power to speak in unknown tongues.
Paul says to the Corinthian believers that he would “rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue” (1 Cor 14:19). Below is a list of five word phrases that Paul spoke that were more beneficial than tongue talk.

Editor’s note:
If we replaced every ten thousand word tongue talking with one of these phrases by course then we might finally hear the gospel in Pentecostal churches!
