Was he baptized in Jesus' name and speak in tongues? Man, I sure hope so. Heaven wouldn't be any fun, without Jesus there.

Some of the old timers used to preach that Jesus spoke in tongues on a few occasions such as:
Mark 5:41
Mark 7:34
Mark 14:36
Mark 15:34

Wow... that's just amazing. People will use Scripture however they want, pulling from it ammo to support a pre-existing belief or idea. The eisegesis is just unbelievable.

Amazingly, entire movements and salvation plans defined by tongues, and there is no explicit teaching on the matter. But we get our fancy eisegesis decoders out and play connect-the-dots to concoct all sorts of foolishness -- anything but the plain teachings of Jesus.

Reminds me of a story.

Some years ago my son told me about his youngest son.
One of the Sunday School teachers said something about Jesus dying.
The little guy said, "Well, I wondered why we never saw Him around here."
