Modern Tongues Movement

Was speaking in tongues designed to be the outward evidence of the baptism of the Holy Spirit? Was the gift of tongues given as a permanent or a temporary gift to the church? Can tongue speaking be used for private devotions and self-edification? This book presents a careful study of the modern tongues movement with it's historical antecedents. It offers a thorough Scriptural study of the Biblical phenomenon and evaluates the current movement in the light of that study.
