There is no reason to think that just because you don't go to church or barely ever pray that you cannot still speak with other tongues, the same as you once did however long ago.

That's the illogic of your position. It just means that God hasn't removed the Holy Spirit from you and that any time you do pray, He permits you to speak with other tongues because He is trying to edify you and build up your most holy faith. Perhaps He is trying to allow the Holy Spirit to make intercession for you to lead you back to repentance and belief?

Interesting. I hadn't considered that possibility before.

So talking like you know about something that the Holy Ghost did when you weren't there, when you didn't see it with your own eyes and hear it with your own ears, when other apostolics that were there would say you are wrong... and you think you are in a position to be able to judge what God did in this matter? That you think you are reveals your flaws. That you would even attempt to assert with certainty that God didn't do something given the above circumstances says far more about you and your walk with God than it ever could about me and my experiences. You really should repent lest God hold you accountable for diminishing the work of his Holy Spirit.

Because your experience does not match mine. Or my wife's. Or a bunch of other people I know. But it DOES match the experience of yet others I have known, who are mostly backslid and apostate now. So there's that.

Elaborate?

It’s an illogic position to think someone that does go to church, doesn’t pray and doesn’t even really believe can still have the Holy Ghost. He needs to repent, go to church and start praying.

Good grief.

Jfrog you have started a rather senseless argument...but I know how you can settle it!

Get yourself to a good strong Apostolic church, go to the altar, cry out to God in repentance and get a good renewing/ firstime infilling (no one seems to know which but it really doesn’t matter) of the Holy Ghost and submit yourself to a man of God! Then they can move onto a more beneficial debate!

Considering how adamantly some have claimed I did not get the Holy Ghost I would think it should be important to them to know whether I got it or not, seeing as it's not just an accusation against me, but also against God. Saying "Jfrog didn't receive it is also saying God didn't give it". They may have some repenting to do if God really gave it and they are saying he didn't.

To me it doesn’t matter if you really got it or not. Doesn’t matter to me if you had it or not. All that matters to me is you get it now and stay full the Holy Ghost!

Good advise right here.
