The term xenoglossia is a technical term only and it is not found in the Scriptures.Yes, the Acts of the Apostles uses the term Xenoglossia to describe Pentacost. The idea there is that the early Christians were able to speak other human languages, undoing Babel, undoing misunderstanding.
As Paul plainly tells us in 1Cor 14:2Ironically in charismatic churches the opposite is happening. People begin babbling incoherently and considering it good...
For anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak to people but to God. Indeed, no one understands them; they utter mysteries by the Spirit.
So if anyone makes the claim that they (or another) understood what someone was saying to the Father (never to man) in tongues in the congregational setting, then you can rightfully challenge their claim as tongues is not intended for man to understand, but to God alone.
