‘Another Aspect Of Diverse Languages Gift.’
1 Corinthians 14:21-22.
a) Here is a Prophecy of Scripture from the Old Testament.
b) Apostle Paul interprets it thus:- The Gift of speaking in diverse languages is a proof for those people who do not believe.
c) This happens when the person who is speaking in and with the Gift speaks and does not understand but the hearers understand. There are instances on the mission field and in other environments in this generation where this has happened.
d) The Gift of prophecy is spoken for those people who are True Believers, for their:-
1- Edification.
2- Exhortation.
3- Comfort.

‘Let Me Leave.’
a) Nehemiah 13:6. Nehemiah requested of the King of Babylon, so that he could go back to Jerusalem where he was needed.
b) 1 Kings 11:22. When Hadad had heard of the deaths of King David and Joab, commander of the army he asked Pharaoh to let him leave.
c) Genesis 33:15. Esau, at a time of reconciliation with Jacob wanted to leave some of his men to help Jacob, but Jacob said that it was not necessary.
(Through this Second one, Let Me Leave, I can see the importance of considering other people in our decision making)

Respect for authority is a theme of the Bible through both Old and New Testaments. People who do not and will not respect authority are out of order and cannot be trusted. God will honour those people who respect authority.
