Comments on: What are “tongues” in Acts 2? (Part 1) http://www.4-14.org.uk/tongues-in-acts-2-part-1 …Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves… Fri, 29 Aug 2008 02:44:07 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=abc By: Don Clark http://www.4-14.org.uk/tongues-in-acts-2-part-1#comment-8020 Don Clark Sun, 29 Apr 2007 19:28:20 +0000 http://www.4-14.org.uk/170-tongues-in-acts-2-part-1#comment-8020 I wasn't there at Pentecost. I am puzzled why some of the group apparently did not hear anything but noise. They thought the disciples were just a bunch of drunk. So, I have tried out a psychological explanation on my blog. http://donclarks.blogspot.com/2007/01/maybe-pentecost-never-happened-at-least.html I wasn’t there at Pentecost.

(I acknowledge that the words "ecstatic" and "heavenly language" aren't necessarily helpful, but it's hard to choose words that everyone likes!) I'm aware there are a myriad of understandings of tongues. I have 14 on my list! I'm trying to keep this list short and simple. How would you want to define charismatic tongue-speaking?

Are you only talking about Acts 2 here are are you saying that there are five main theories concerning the gift of tongues overall? If you are just talking about the gift of tongues in Acts 2 then I agree. But if you are talking about the gift of tongues throughout Scripture then I would like to point out that you completely missed the charismatic/pentecostal understanding of the gift of tongues.
