Too bad the Catholic casts doubt on that which has not happened to him/her.    When I was 12 I was confirmed in the Lutheran church.   It meant that I had to stand before the congregation and answer a whole bunch of questions.  I was sacred silly and devoid of answers.\n\nMy pastor took our class down into the basemant and prayed for us.   All of a sudden the fear completely left me and I felt powerful and taller than everybody else.   I had always been very shy and timid like my father.  \n\nThe feeling left after the ceremony but I wanted to find it again but didn't know how.   I searched for 29 years for that power and boldness till I walked into a small pentecostal church and found it again and was baptized in the Holy Spirit for good.\n\nMy speaking in tongues gift is now the ability to perform in music and to speak and testify about my love for Jesus boldly and without fear.   I thank God for a true born again experience.\n\nGod works in mysterious ways and be very careful putting down others for the way they act when filled with the spirit.   Running, screaming, laughing are all things that God has given to us to express ourselves.   Don't put the Holy Spirit in a box.. Seek Him and He will set you free.   Would you jump and shout like the cripple in the Book of Acts Chp. 3?    Why not???

I have only been called once to exorcise posessing spirits.  The evidence abounded, though.  Perfume bottles would fly up from behind picture frames and hurl themselves at the woman who was involved.  After asking God's protection, I walked into the room.  \n\nThe bottles flew at me just as they did at her, but when they got about 2 feet away from me, they stopped in mid flight and dropped to the ground.  I asked if she had any books on witchcraft, and she said no, so I thought about the things that the Bible mentions as evil, and asked if she had any books on astrology.  She had many, but the Spirit told me that just wasn't it.  \n\nI asked her if she was SURE there wasn't something else.  She himmed and hawed around, then said, "Well, I have this."  She reached into her bookcase and pulled out a Satanic Bible.\n     \nI cast the demons out in the name of Jesus, then took the books to the middle of a barron street and burned them.  When the books finished burning, a large wind came out of nowhere and blew the ashes away.  A thought came into my head about the Holy Spirit being like a wind... you don't know from where it comes or where it goes.\n     \nThey asked what they should do next, and I told them to find a church that they liked and stay in it.  About 10 years later, the couple called me and thanked me for what I did.  I had to explain that it wasn't me who did it, but God working through me who did it.  Everything seemed fine after that.\n     \nAs far as medical treatments go, they can treat the physical symptoms to some degree, but they can't remove the source of the problem.

No. \nSource 1:\n    * 1 Cor. 12:7-11, "But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; 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. But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will."\n\n    * 1 Cor. 12:29-30, "Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles? Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?"\n\nNot all speak in tongues because God doesn't give the gift to everyone.  Speaking in tongues is not THE sign of salvation, but A sign.  If anything, the fruit of the indwelling Spirit of God is listed in Gal. 5:22-23 is the sign of salvation.  \n\n    "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law" (Gal. 5:22-23).\n\nSource 2: Was there a point in time when you surrendered your life to Christ? Was there a moment of brokenness when you recognized that you are indeed ungodly and cannot become righteous by your deeds? Have you invited Jesus into your heart and made Him Lord? Has there been a change so that you are no longer living for the world, but living for Christ. Walking in obedience out of love for God is evidence of salvation. Speaking in tongues is not.

God also tells us to test the spirit, and I say you were not inspired by God to write this, but maybe inspired by satan himself. \n\nI cannot give you any proof since you are blind/deaf/dumb to the ways of God.

Yes! speaking or praying in tongues is a way to communicate with God that only He understands. It takes complete submission on your part and to focus on His glory and to praise and worship Him. I was only and am only able to pray in tongues if I think of only Him and my heart feels so complete. It is an act that should be achieved by every Christian. God wants us to have a relationship with Him and I think this is one of the ways to display your filling of the Holy Spirit. Continue to read the bible, Know Jesus is our Lord and Savior, and get others to come to Heaven with you.

are you speaking in tongues?

Yes. I do ouija sessions, especially on Samhain when the veil between the world of the dead and living is at its thinnest.

If you cannot translate what you say and share those prayers with others then its just random gibberish. Most cases of speaking in tongues are fake.
