When I read the Scriptures I see that not everyone immediately spoke in tongues when they got baptized in the Holy Ghost, some prophesied! Now, if the argument against tongues as the initial evidence went along the lines that another supernatural gift could be the initial evidence I would be more sympathetic. But the reality is that the argument that is presented goes more along the lines that someone could receive the baptism as a second work of grace and yet there could be <strong>no evidence!</strong> This is unbiblical and an attempt for some to give license to their lack of fruit. The Holy Ghost has not gone into hiding. He has not gotten tired. He has not retreated. He was not buried with the original Apostles. There are Apostles and Prophets living today and the Holy Ghost is for all who believe with accompanying signs and wonders! I feel the preach coming on so I will end it there! lol You know, here is the deal.
