That is where I see the MAJOR problem in the Pentecostal movement, the huge emphasis on tongues, the least of the gifts, and its misapplication and use.

It's not like anyone's simply repeating the mistakes of the church in Corinth or anything, is it?

..and it’s not like anyone cannot go somewhere in SCRIPTURE to find out what happened. In order to keep from making the VERY SAME MISTAKES the Corinthians made. “yeah, but that was them. WE are different..we have more discernment than they had..WE can’t be fooled, and IF we are, then shame on the fooler. NOT on us, because we do not need to compare the Scriptures and study them daily to see if those things are so..it just FEELS right, so it MUST be..” And whatever you do, do NOT post Scripture or attempt to show through God’s Word your belief on the matter. It WILL be NOT be met with a reasoned discourse and conversation, using the Scriptures to guide and longsuffering and doctrine to explain. It will be met with wrath, indignation, scorn, belittling, hostility, and ridicule. Everything but Scripture. Corinthian hospitality at its finest.
