do you have to speak in tongues to know you are saved?

No. That is not even proof that you are saved.

NO you are not saved.  The Bible says, and I quote \n"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in rhine heart that God hath raised hi from the dead, thou shalt be saved". Romans 10 verse 9\n\nNow, just because I gave you a easy answer, does not mean its that easy to live saved.  there are the ten commandment that in the Bible and also the two Greatest Commandments.  you see.  God honours when you admit when you are wrong and ask for forgivenss.  When you ask, you can't make that same mistake again.  So try hard not to.\n\n\nI hope I answered you question.

You are saved when you have accept Jesus as your savior and ask him to come into your life.   Jesus died for your salvation.  \n\nSometimes we humans need to see a "miracle" or an answer to prayer to give us a boost in our spiritual lives.  I think you just had one.  \n\nGod honored your prayer so please do your best to honor God by keeping your promise.  It is you who will benefit by the knowledge of God's kingdom and His purpose and will in your life.  Believe me, God wants to bless you far more than you want to be blessed.  \n\nMay I make a suggestion about your bible?  I don't know which version you use, but I suggest you visit a local Christian book store and look through the many versions to find the one you understand the most clearly.  I prefer the Zondervan New International  Version Study Bible, but my husband prefers the New King James Version.  \n\nBefore you read the Bible, you should always ask that God open your eyes to the meaning and understanding of what you are reading.  Nothing will stop you from reading the bible quicker than not being able to understand it.\n\nFinally, have a plan to read it.  Most Bibles have a one year reading plan in them that includes daily readings from both the Old and New Testaments.  And do not be afraid to ask trusted Christians what a verse means.  You can study it together if you need to.

Yes I have.  I can tell you exactly the first time and where I was at.  I was going through a messy divorce and I was in the shower singing praises to the Lord and all of the sudden it was as though angels had taken over the singing what a beautiful sound it was.  Tongues is Gods way of communicating with us when we don't know how and we are losr for words.  Why are you asking such a question?

you cannot "learn" to speak in tounges. It is a gift from the holy ghost. Alot of people gain this ability through intercesory prayer. You must believe in and follow our lord Jesus to receive such a glorious gift!

Them refers to unbelievers or those who are not Christians. There is great misuse of tongues in the church. If everyone in the local church speaks the same language, say english, there is no need to speak in a tongue that not everyone is going to understand. God doesn't want confusion in the church. Also if you have the gift of tongues, you will not have to learn to speak it, you will speak naturally although you may not understand it. Either the person who speaks in a tongue is to interpet what is being said or someone else who knows the interpetation. If nobody can interpet the tongue than no one should be talking in that language.  Not everyone has the gift of tongues either.

just go by what the word says and not people.there are to many Church's out there who preach there opinion rather than the word.read that entire chapter of Corinthians.Paul does stress that speaking in tongues is necessary.he say that is is better to prophesy than speak in tongues and that tongues should be spoken only when someone has the gift of interpreting.god is a god of order and there are to many Church's who are out of order when it comes to speaking in tongues.1Corinthians has everything you need to know.

The trinity is in the Bible. Jesus said that he was ascending to his Father and would send the Holy Spirit in his place.\n\nDoes it matter? Well, yeah. When you accept salvation, you come to better know God the Father through Christ's mercy, and part of how you come to know God better is by heeding the guidance of the Holy Spirit, which is sent to you once you accept Christ.\n\nAs for whether or not you can still be saved if you don't believe this, it's a moot point. If you accept salvation, you will be sent the Holy Spirit, and you will--if you heed that guidance--come to know God the Father better. That is, whether you believe this beforehand or not, it is what will happen in your life if you are earnestly seeking the will of God.

True for the most part, but different people have different definitions of "saved." Also, many of the Christian denominations use this word differently, so I'm not sure what you mean by it here. Essentially, you're right. Just because one knows Jesus and what He did for us doesn't guarantee one's salvation. Both faith and good works are required to be saved. For more on this, read the letters of St. Paul.

The whole getting saved during the tribulation thing is set in stone, but it is no stone any human has ever seen. It all depends on what God's plan is. Ask Him. He know everything. Don't be afraid to wait a seemingly unending amount of time to get an answer. You might get none. Still, that is no reason to stop believing.

the holy ghost doesnt always let you speek in tongues. its a form of baptism that is given to you by the holy spirit. a gift for those who accept Jesus Christ as their lord and savior and believes that Jesus Christ died on the cross for the remitance of our sins.when god feels you are ready for this anniontment, he will pass it on to you. remember that god doesnt give you salvation to take it away. salvation is given to you by God for eternity. trust in God and keep faith in everything in life.

It's nonsense. The scripture it is taken from clearly States if there is no one to interpret the "tongues" then don't speak int hem When is the last time anyone could interpret the babble you hear in pentecostal churches?

Ephesians 2:8-9..."For by grace are ye saved, through faith; and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works lest any man should boast".\nWorks follow naturally as evidence of salvation, not to obtain it.

other tongues are languages there were many who were there that spoke with different tongues,that is why they spoke in tongues they didn`t know to edify those who didn`t understand.\nThe Holy Ghost Babtizes you  and you have an over flowing and that is the tongue of Angels or Stamering lips.I`ve seen people saved and filled up and they just get the stammering lips this is considered a tongue.I`ve had that happen.

I sure do. Speaking in tongues is evidence that the Holy Spirit is living inside of you. It is a special communication between you and God and it is a gift from him. Praise be to God!!!!

1 Corinthians 14:2\n\n"For anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God. Indeed, no one understands him; he utters mysteries with his spirit."\n\nI speak in tongues. I got it when I was 15. When I concentrate in praying usually it comes out by itself.

It seems that they are speaking gibberish, but that they don't know it.  They essentially trick themselves into having this religious experience.  This is not saying that someone CANNOT speak in tongues through the Holy Spirit, but only that if they did, only that the examples we see today do not appear to be actual supernatural experiences.  Every linguist who has studied various individuals speaking in tongues has stated that what is being spoken is not an actual language (not just a known language, but that it isn't language).  There are those also that believe they have the gift of interpreting these tongues.  But, when a recording of someone speaking in a tongue has been brought to several interpreters, the interpretations are not the same.  \n\nPeople can trick themselves into believing they are speaking in tongues, or that they understand these tongues, but when put to the test, these "miracles" do not seem to be miraculous at all.  These people are not bad people, just fooled.
