Again we have the definite instructions of the Holy—Spirit of God as to the conduct to be observed in this matter. "If there be no interpreter, let him [the speaker in an unknown tongue] keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God " (1 Corinthians 14:2828But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God. (1 Corinthians 14:28)).
These instructions were set aside when the writer was present at a Tongues' meeting. A man spoke in a tongue, or what was claimed to be a tongue, and there was no attempt at interpretation. There are meetings where interpretation is attempted, but very often these instructions are ignored. Is this a mark of the special infilling of the Spirit?
