Some charismatics and an assortment of sympathetic observers, spurred on by modern linguistic analyses of audio recordings of modern tongues vocalizations, argue that modern tongues and the tongues in Corinth alike are not real languages at all. The questions Bruce Edminster seeks to answer in \u003cem\u003eThe Gift of Tongues\u003c\/em\u003e include whether the Corinthian gift is the same as the one found in the book of Acts, what is the meaning and significance of the word \"edification\" in the context of the Corinthian phenomenon, and is the gift of tongues \"real\" language, the language of the angels, or a non-language? Further consideration asks what should the \"gift of tongues\" should be used for? Evangelism? Personal devotion? Self-gratification?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bruce A.
