1. Significance of the Tongue Gift.

Out of all the gifts mentioned in 1 Corinthians 12:8-10, only speaking in other tongues was not performed in Old Testament times. People began to flow in this supernatural ability only after the ascension of Christ and advent of the HolySpirit.

Speaking in tongues is therefore proof and declaration that, truly Christ is glorified; seated with the Father from and has sent us the Holy Spirit who now lives within (not upon) us just as promised.
