Speaking in tongues is described in the [[New Testament]], initially in the [[book of Acts]] where "tongues of fire" descended on the heads of the [[apostles]] accompanied by the occurrence of speaking in foreign languages unknown by them to proclaim the gospel. Today, some Christians speak in tongues, particularly in charismatic congregations and [[Pentecostal]] churches. ===Speaking in tongues in the New Testament=== ===Speaking in tongues through Church History=== ===Speaking in tongues today=== ===Different viewpoints on speaking in tongues=== ==Quotes== ==Links==* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossolalia Wikipedia - Glossalalia] {{returnto}} [[Christianity]] -> [[Christian doctrine and debates]][[Category:Christian doctrine and debates]]
