The Importance of Speaking in Tongues

If any person is depressed and have the gift of the Holy Spirit, well then I love you, but I don't pity you because you've got something here that will build you up. Speaking in tongues promotes spiritual growth. The word edify means to build up, promote spiritual growth. When you pray in tongues, your spirit prays - it's not your body. Your body is still the same. You just have to get him out, you have toget him to where he's in control.
