BOOMM, I do not equate Spirit filling with Spirit baptism. I do not see anywhere in the Bible where the phrase "filled with the Holy Ghost" speaks of regeneration and/or salvation.
Acts 2:38 does not promise that the person will be "filled with the Holy Ghost," it promises that they will receive the "gift of the Holy Ghost" which taken in context is eternal life. Those who turned back to God would receive LIFE. That tongues may be a sign of Spirit "filling" has nothing to do with
Acts 2:38.

Likewise, what do you present for evidence of a person having the infilling?

There are many manifestations of Spirit "filling". BUT, I would say that evidence of the presence of the indwelling Spirit of LIFE is FAITH. He that believeth is passed from death unto life (
John 3:15-16, 36;
5:24; 6:40,47; 11:25,26).
