If tongues are necessary for salvation, in the verse we are discussing, then all of these are necessary for salvation:
- cast out devils
- speak with new tongues
- take up serpents
- drink any deadly thing
- lay hands on the sick
Do you teach you must do all of the above list in order to be saved?
Mark 16:15-20 teaches this (and
Acts 2:38 identifies with this as well).
1.Salvation includes two acts of obedience: Faith (believing) and baptism.
2. Signs (works if you will) follow that obedience.
Simple.
So... If you don't speak in tongues, are you saved, or not?
