From Grace and Truth Recommend by Matt Tongues
Revisited
By Renton Maclachlan.
Renton
recently did a couple of lectures in Wellington RC which were rather helpful. He
has stood for CHP and runs a wee radio station in Porirua challenging the
secular humanist worldview 24/7. The
thesis of Tongues Revisited: A Third Way is: Biblical
Tongues are normal human languages, normally learnt and normally spoken. i've
just about finished the book - i'm halfway through the copious (and very
interesting) footnotes. i'm not 100% convinced that his thesis is correct, but
any reservations i have are not due to poor arguments on his part, but only the
weight of orthodox scholarship which disagrees with him. A well-argued reply to
the arguments presented in the book would be something worth reading. The
book is about $30. It would be worth buying a copy just to support this guy's
work. i recommend this book to anyone who has any involvement at all with our
charismatic & pentecostal brothers. Recommended by matt , 19/11/2001. |
