Neither do you. ^^ (above) is the miracle of "tongues" as outlined in your book. This is not what you do or what you experience.
The other references to tongues not only describe other tongues but describe what is said. Such as "for they heard them speaking in tongues and magnifying God" in
Acts 10.
I believe the term for what you do is "glossolalia" which really pales to and is not the same as what is described to be a real unusual event (
Acts 2) - one that I don't believe has ever been repeated in any of your lifetimes.
Unless you have a specific example. Otherwise you completely ostracize people until they blah blah blah for a few minutes and join your club.
Sorry dude, that's how I see it. Maybe i'm wrong but that's what it looks, smells, and sounds like.
