The toe, beyond being an important extremity, was considered the sign of stability in power and maneuverability. Ancient warriors often severed the big toe of their captive rulers to assure they would not be able to mobilize effectively against them again in the future. A leader with a severed big toe was greatly ashamed. See Big Toe. 1527. Token—A symbolic sign delivered by God as a partial or preliminary miracle that foreshadows the word of the Lord spoken by a prophet, dream, or otherwise sent by God to a recipient. 1528. Tongues—A biblical term for praying in the Holy Spirit as stated in Jude 1:20. Praying or speaking in other tongues is a gift of the Holy Spirit that is ordained to the church. That it is an expected function of the New Creation minister is seen in 1 Corinthians 12:28, 30. It is referred to in 1 Corinthians 12:10 as a special manifestation of the Holy Spirit when operated in a Christian gathering. Praying in tongues seems to differ from generally speaking in other tongues according to 1 Corinthians 14:14–15 as compared with other 1 Corinthians references. Beyond all that, we are told that there are tongues of men versus tongues of angels. This revelation further helps us understand the scope of power and affect of this practice. Praying in other tongues, according to Scripture, enables Christ’s people to commune with Him and the Father spirit to spirit. Moreover, they are able to command the invisible forces of creation accurately and without bias or personal objectives. The benefit of speaking in other tongues is that Christ’s believers are free to draw on every language ever uttered out of the mouth of Creator God as needed in heaven and on earth to conduct His spiritual and eternal affairs on the earth. 1529. Topical Study—A Bible student’s assignment where a concentrated area of study is spotlighted to examine its posture on a specific theme or sphere of human life. The Scriptures studied all share the same topical theme for relevance and support of a teaching premise of doctrine.
