Speaking in Tongues: Scientists Study Brain Activity
My favorite quote from the whole video is this one: "Buddhist monks & Franciscan nuns were found to be in control of their frontal lobes while meditating, while those who were speaking in tongues were not." This shows that the power of God is real, that speaking in tongues is a real gift from God, and that God is the Only True God!
Here is what the Bible says about tongues. I speak in tongues. I have seen people healed from sickness when I prayed for them. I have gained the power to overcome my sins when I started daily speaking in tongues.
Do you speak in tongues? If so, please describe your experience with speaking in tongues. What do you think is the purpose of speaking in tongues?

@MusicologyNut85@xanga - Thanks for your response. I speak in tongues on a daily basis as well as experiencing it in church, so it's not a question for me. I appreciate your opinion, though.
1 Corinthians 14:22
Tongues, then, are a sign, not for believers but for unbelievers; prophecy, however, is for believers, not for unbelievers.
This verse is the reason why I believe that speaking in tongues should only be a sign for non believers and not for believers to abuse and claim it helps them get closer to God. I believe that this is from the perspective of the presbyterian/reformed church as well and since I adhere to the presbyterian tradition, I too feel that speaking in tongues is not a very important gift of the spirit.
