You know, as I was writing that I thought to myself, "what an idiot I am." Although I am sure some of those who have recorded people speaking in tongues are a honest as the day is long, the fact remains, it's not a very valid reference for the phenomena. That is, unless you've experienced it yourself. What I can tell you is this. When I was in high school I took French. It is a common second language in school, I know. I also attended a Pentacostal church camp. I witnessed people speeking in Tongues. I heard at least on of the group members speaking French, and speaking it quite fluently. I did ask that person if they know French or had ever taken a course, and they assured me they hadn't. Again, this is something you take at face value, as the person could very easily have been lying to me.

Therefore, even if I did present audio or video evidence of the phenomena, it really would be invalid as it is quite easy to be skeptical of the legitimacy.

Believe what you will. I know what I saw and heard.

Wonderful testimony. Thanks.

And, right you are . . . none are so blind as those who will not see. And without an AUTHENTIC EXPERIENCE

AND/OR HOLY SPIRIT MOVING UPON THEM SUPERNATURALLY . . . they are unlikely to choose to see or allow Him to remove their blindness.
