Can't really speak to that. I don't know them. For me.. if it was those 2 and one other person was asking about it.. I still would not start speaking in tongues. I would show them Luke 11 13 and other verses about what the bible says.

To post this on YOUTUBE .. for me is unwise. Brings no glory to the Father and helps the world make fun of us even more. Its not what MAN says.. always remember that. NOT what I say about it. Its what does the word say.. is what matters. What happen to so many in Acts is exactly what happen to me. Some on in a bible study asked if I wanted the Holy Spirit I said yes. They read verses about it to show me its in the bible. Then asked again if I wanted it. I said yes.. they prayed. Then stopped and said "you go it"

Nothing happen. See they took GOD at His word. It says ASK and HE WILL give. I got up.. went to sit down and .. it just came out. I wasnt trying to do it at ALL. Nor did ANYONE else speak in tongues when they asked me about this. JESUS is real.. the sweet sweet Holy Spirit is real.

So.. I wouldnt speak any bad about this video.. the love Jesus..just not doing this the right way.. praise GOD! Is what I say. By that I mean.. to just post it in public. The word of God talks about this. What it will do is cause the world to make fun of us even more. But I shared about the gift.. it is VERY REAL and .. I can't even wonder what my life as a believer would be with out it. He said you shall receive POWER after the holy Spirit come on you.. HELLO! Yes! Praise GOD.. LOVE Him so much

https://youtu.be/bSd9T-FZMdk Is this speaking in Tongues? My sister needs a little insight.

Thank you.
She is young and trapped into a false narrative. Let her go through it, eventually she will know Jesus Christ of Nazareth and not just a common Charismatic event.
Blessings

PS: It is suppose to be interpreted and is always a language. Read Paul's letter to the Corinthians. It is unfruitful.I am sure, bless her heart, she does not know better but if she really wants to serve the Lord document each and every "tongues" occasion, she will find that it is the same thing over and over and the Lord has refuted repetitive anything as this is what the heathens do.

This forum '...precludes people that do not believe in the gift (such as tongues) from teaching against them." New forum perhaps

All tongues can be interpreted 1Co 14:13 "Wherefore let him that speaketh in an unknown tongue pray that he may interpret"

Beloved friends, with all this in mind, be passionate to prophesy and don't forbid anyone from speaking in tongues," I Cor 14:39

There's a diversity of tongues =
"And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues." (II Cor 12:28) including the edification for the believer (II Cor 14:4) and the church such as the gift of tongues with interpretation (II Cor 14:5).

Tongues are a sign TO unbelievers OF believers. (I Cor 14:22 and Mark 16:17).

With the groups that received tongues in Scripture, it states "all" that were there received (Acts 4:31; 10:44-46; 19:2-6). With tongues, they magnified God (Acts 10:42).

"They were all filled and equipped with the Holy Spirit and were inspired to speak in tongues—empowered by the Spirit to speak in languages they had never learned!," Acts 2 TPT

Your doing just fine, you have received a gift.

It isn't that this gift isn't for everyone, or even that it's not real, it's that not everyone believes it is valid, or have received teaching from others against it by people who don't have the gift either, therefore they do not receive it.

When a new born baby begins to speak, what they say in not able to be understood by the Parents, or anyone else for that matter, they speak in short repetitive sentences, (Sound familiar)?

As you grow, as you age in the Lord, your Language will become more extensive, the more you use this Gift the more words and phrases you will acquire.

What you are speaking right now is what would be called a Prayer Language, it's between you and God.

Whenever you Pray, do it privately.

Mat. 6:6
But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

1Co 14:1-5
1) Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy.
2) For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
3) But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.
4) He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.
5) I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.

This is a gift God has given you to build you up Spiritually, don't put yourself into the position of ridicule by those who do not believe, that would be like an Atheist telling you your not Saved because, they don't believe in Salvation.

There is a lot more you need to know, if you don't have someone like a Pastor
who understands this Gift, then seek out Believers online who do, you could also Private Message me.

I have spoken in Tongues for over 50 yrs. my Prayer Language has changed over the years, different sounding Dialects, and words, the words your speaking now might only last for a few Months more or less, and then change
once you gain a more extensive Language, you may never speak these words your now using again.

Remember, it is the Holy Spirit doing the Praying for you, through you.

Rom 8:26-28
26) Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
27) And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.
28) And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

A Scripture for your Sister and Brother in law.

1Co 14:38,39
38) But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant.
39) Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.

The following was from the Jews about Christianity be a valid Belief, but what was said then can be applied today to this very situation.

Act 5:38,39
38) And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought:
39) But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God.

Remember KAYLA keep it private, what you have is between you and God, in your private Prayer time.

Be Blessed in Christ.

https://youtu.be/bSd9T-FZMdk Is this speaking in Tongues? My sister needs a little insight.

Thank you.
Yes, she is speaking in tongues according to the Bible. She repeated certain words. One of them was recognizable to me since I took a class in Spanish some time ago.

Boca, which means- mouth.
It is said that speaking in tongues is what Jesus said in John 7:38-39 "He that believes on Me, as the scriptures have said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. But this He spoke of the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were to receive; for the Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified."
