Ephesians 4:13-15
13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:
I glad that we all have come into the unity of the faith and have intimate knowledge and we’re come into the fullness of Christ, NO, we are more fractured as in on other time, many in the Church (oops, Christendom) are shallow, immature and nominal Christian’s, NO, we still need every gift). 🙂

Christians are fine, here look 2 Peter 1:4 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 5 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

Basically, fear or ignorance.
Every human who is born again of the gift of the Holy Spirit can manifest speaking in tongues. The Holy Spirit gives them the ability, it's up to them whether they do it or not.
Agreed. But if a person is born again, they are a Christian.
1 Cor 14:5 ESV Now I want you all to speak in tongues, but even more to prophesy. The one who prophesies is greater than the one who speaks in tongues, unless someone interprets, so that the church may be built up.
...all scripture is by revelation, by the way.
No, they're the same thing.
They aren't gifts, they are manifestations.
Every true Christian is born again. They have the "infilling" of the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Cornelius and his family were brand new Christians, and they immediately spoke in tongues.
The gift of the Holy spirit will not control you.
Sure you can. Brand spanking new Christians can speak in tongues. Cp. Cornelius.
The Amplified Bible adds words that are not in the Bible.
..ok

Christianity has speaking in tongues, a manifestation of the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Luke 11:
11 If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?
12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?
13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?

Actually, I had a little quiet chuckle about this, you latest post.
NO, there not the same!
We need building up in our faith daily, so the prayer language is given us to use at anytime, it is an utterance given by the Spirit to use whenever and wherever, but I suggest one do so under their breath when in public. The gift of tongues is for where two or three are gathered in his name, I would not believe it if it was used in at work, at the dentist, nor anywhere that they have not gathered in his name. 🙂
