Speaking In Tongues Does Not Equal Salvation.
Isn't this statement clear enough?

Well, I heard it as "repent, be baptized in the name of Jesus and receive the gift of the Holy Ghost." Which I believe is the three-stepper position?

Tongues is not the baptism. The ANOINTING is the baptism. Tongues FOLLOW the anointing.

Amen and amen. This is the very accusation people have against whom they call "three steppers" and it is a strawman. No matter how anyone slices it, you cannot accuse something that is claimed to be initial evidence of what is required for salvation to be thing required for salvation based upon that claim. --no matter who among the three step crowd mistakenly treats it as though it were.

Not in EVERY case, but most, IMO.

Re: Speaking In Tongues Does Not Equal Salvation.
Every person I've ever known to receive the Holy Ghost, always, without fail, spoke in another tongue. Seems that was also evident in the folks mentioned in the Bible who received it.

Re: Speaking In Tongues Does Not Equal Salvation.
1Cr 13:1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become [as] sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
Which carries more weight? Charity or speaking in tongues?
Can one be saved without charity, or speaking in tongues or either?
Speaking in tongues is not the ultimate test of salvation!

Amen, and even though (as the original post implied) speaking in tongues is not what saves you, it is the initial evidence of receiving the Holy Ghost and receiving the Holy Ghost is part of what is required for salvation. (along with repentence and baptism in Jesus name).
