I beg to differ on that. The Apostle Paul clearly establishes tongues as an evidence of the baptism of the Holy Spirit. "Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good.To one there is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, to another the message of...

I believe that tongues were the first biblical evidence of people receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit and thus it is the initial meaning first evidence of receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Yet personally I believe that speaking in tongues will accompany someone who has received the...

The disciples did not have the Holy Spirit when they believed but had to wait for the fulfillment of the promise at Pentecost (Acts 1:5;8). When Pentecost came the 120 in the Upper Room (including the disciples) were filled/ baptized with the Holy Spirit and the first evidence was speaking in...

Ephesians 4:4-6 "There is one body and one Spirit--just as you were called to one hope when you were called, one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all!" Here we see that yes they are three distinct persons but they are of ONE. And the...

The only things I wish could be added is "the baptism of the Holy Spirit". But I understand that not all Christians believe in it or have experienced it. So that is just my little 2 cents!LOL!

Yes for the Holy Ghost is the greatest teacher! I'm not bashing or saying that the rules put in place are negative and not helpful but they are simply not biblical. Doctrine is secondary to the Holy Writ!

I agree with wholeheartedly with what you said! Biblicaly there is no foundation for these requirements. I'm not saying that they are not helpful and beneficial but they are not mandated by the Holy scripture.
