    Pentecost

    "filled with the Holy Spirit" and able to "speak in other tongues."

    This is what happened at Pentecost.

    The Bible makes it plain that speaking in other tongues means that native speakers of languages unknown to the spirit filled Christian will hear their own language.

    It is not a lot of random gibberish. That is just carney talk.

    Most Pentecostal churches ignore the truth.
