Have you ever considered how many different gifts of tongues from God there might be?I thought you didn't want to discuss things? I'm not 100% right in everything, neither are you. But, when the Bible is clear on something as it is with tongues, it sad to see people reject it over their emotions, or in your case, length of time being a Christian (since 1980).
Have you ever spoken an actual foreign human language with your gift of tongues?
"To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:" I Cor 12:10
Some years ago I recognized not less than three according to the scriptures. That not many manifest them at all in some church groups is an indication to me that at times and in places some people are ignoring Apostle Paul's admonition and perhaps replacing the Way of God with their hermeneutics or even just the way that their people have long chosen to do things:
"Quench not the Spirit." I Thess 5:19
