In this episode of Prove All Things, the hosts take a deep dive into the controversial topic of speaking in tongues. They explore personal experiences, common church practices, and what the Bible actually teaches about the gifts of the Holy Spirit. Through scripture and discussion, they explain how early believers spoke in real foreign languages—not mysterious babbling—and how modern “tongues” often stem from emotional influence, learned behavior, or false signs. The program encourages viewers to test all things and seek biblical truth about the Holy Spirit’s work in the Church today.
Most Christians today celebrate man-made holidays like Christmas and Easter, while dismissing God’s annual holy days in Leviticus 23 as “Old Testament” rituals. In this episode of Truth Unveiled, host Mike James shows that Jesus, His apostles, and the early Church all observed these holy days — and that prophecy reveals they’ll be kept again in God’s coming Kingdom. Each feast points to a vital part of God’s salvation plan, from Christ’s sacrifice at Passover to His future return at the Feast of Trumpets. Discover why these “feasts of the Lord” still matter for Christians today and how they reveal God’s ongoing work with humanity.
In this Armor of God episode, the hosts explore the incredible power of words—how they shape our world, reveal our faith, and even reflect the divine nature of Christ, the Logos. They unpack the Third Commandment, showing that taking God’s name in vain goes far beyond profanity—it’s about how we represent His character through our speech and actions. The discussion dives into the spiritual and even neurological impact of the words we speak, both to others and to ourselves. Ultimately, it’s a reminder that our words carry creative power—and with them, the responsibility to honor the God whose name we bear.

The Church of God International (CGI) traces its origins to the Church that Jesus founded in the early first century. Membership in the CGI consists of "called out ones" from around the world practicing Christianity as initiated by Jesus and furthered by the early apostles. The church begun by Jesus, the very one He promised would survive through the centuries, is alive and well. Today, disciples live the faith "once delivered to the saints" in this twenty-first century (Jude 3). They obey the same message taught by Jesus Christ, and they proclaim the same gospel taken to the world by the disciples. Members value the witness and teachings of Jesus Christ as the church's work.
The CGI home office is in Tyler, Texas. Incorporated in 1978, CGI has ministers and congregations scattered throughout the United States and Canada . We also have churches in Kenya, Jamaica, the Philippines, Australia, the United Kingdom and a growing number of countries around the world.

In Acts 2, we have the first example of the gift of tongues occurring. The Holy Spirit caused this miracle to occur (Acts 2:4), and the miracle was the ability to speak in foreign languages and to be understood by speakers of that language (Acts 2:5-12).
Later in 1 Corinthians 12:10, we read that some will have the gift of speaking in tongues (diverse languages) and others will have the gift of interpreting those languages. The same Greek word here, glossa, is used in Acts 2, where it was clear we are speaking about foreign languages.
