Still though.....considering what all had happened that day with thousands being added to the church, it's strange there wasn't more detail in regards to the specifics of people receiving the Holy Ghost with tongues evidence.
Paul also never referred to his own personal Pentecost ..... in all the detail he presented when on the witness stand to Festus or Agrippa......no mention of it at all.
In fact none of the Apostles gave it much attention except where Paul provided teaching and guidelines for tongues usage when he wrote to the Corinthians.
Like I said earlier we do not downplay Pentecost. My husband has prayed scores of men, women, and children through to the baptism of the Holy Ghost. I was praying with a lady a couple Sundays ago who received. We believe it.
My issue is with saying a person hasn't become a child of the Father before they've spoken in tongues.
