Not myself, however when I've seen this brought up before, the inevitable cry of "Now you're saying people don't need the Holy Ghost to be saved!!" rings out.
The "Three Step" plan has been so ingrained into the current generation of Oneness Apostolics that "speaking in tongues" is usually equated with salvation itself. That's a primary impetus behind the histrionics in the altar - "New babes are being born into the kingdom!" Maybe.
Taking Parham's "evidence of Spirit baptism" and adding to it G.T. Haywood's "Water & Spirit" doctrine logically leads to equating tongues with salvation.
