Abstrakt

This article has been pre-occupied with the exaggerated relevance given to glossolalia among some pentecostal churches in Nigeria leading to false practices, Confusion and crises of identity among young christians even within the Catholic Church. It has begun by clarifying the notions of Pentecostalism and glossolalia as believed by pentecostals in Nigeria as well as the notion of the baptism of the holy spirit as a foundation for glossolalia. Then it has looked at glossolalia in the scriptures by making exegetical analyses of them using the historical-critical and canonical methods to test proof the pentecostal belief system on glossolalia and its growing influence in Nigeria, and concluded with the teachings of St. Paul in 1 Corinthians 13:1 as the proper approach to the place of glossolalia in the economy of salvation.
