THE TONGUE Philippians 2:1-2: “If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.” Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that one of the greatest needs in our churches today in America and around the world, is that we have that kind of unity and harmony, being of one accord. We should have conformity one to another without opposition. In Acts 1:14 the 120 people in the upper room were in one accord. Ten days later, in Acts 2:1, it tells us that on the day of Pentecost they were in one accord. In the Old Testament they had a celebration which continued seven weeks. Each week ending on the Sabbath. Those 7 weeks, which equals 49 days, always ended on the Sabbath. The following day, which would be the 50th day and the 1st day of the week, was Pentecost, which comes from the Greek word “pentecoste” meaning 50th. Therefore, in Acts 2:1, it was on the first day of the week, the 50th day of the celebration, that they were all with one accord in one place. Verse 2 tells us: “And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.” So after the house was filled, they were all sitting there surrounded by and in the presence of the Holy Ghost. Then in verse 4 came the indwelling of the Holy Ghost. It states: “And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.” Verse 6: “Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded because that every man heard them speak in his own language.” They were confounded because those speaking were from Galilee and verse 5 tells us: “And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.” And yet each one heard the preaching in their own language. That was the miracle! And according to verse 15, all this took place at 9 AM on Sunday morning! Three thousand people were saved and baptized that day. You see, good things happen when the church is in one accord. That is what Paul is speaking about in Philippians 2. Ladies and

DR. CHARLES SMITH MT. ORAB BIBLE BAPTIST CHURCH www.bbcmtorab.com gentlemen, we have bigger fish to fry then for us to be fussing with one another over petty little things. Souls are lost and going to Hell. We need to forget those differences that are separating Christians and instead concentrate on getting the Gospel of Jesus Christ out to the lost people! We are not all going to agree on everything; but we do not have to be argumentative and contentious about it! Husbands and wives do not always agree, but in a good marriage they love each other in spite of the fact. And so should we who are Christians. We can agree to disagree and go on with it. The Holy Ghost came on the church when it was of one accord. Do you know what it means when you have mouths that run on and on with offensive things? The Bible tells us that we have an uncontrollable evil. James 3:5-6 states: “Even so the tongue is a little member and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue amoung our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.” Verse 8: “But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.” In Acts 6 there was murmuring and contention in the church over what widows got the larger portions. And can you believe it, there is still murmuring, complaining, and contention in the churches today over measly, unimportant things while all the while people are dying and going to hell! Murmuring, complaining, and contentions are all deadly poisons in the church. That ought not to be! Are we losing focus on what is important and what is not? It is not ourselves we ought to be focused on! The only focus should be on the work of God!
