   the instances of tongues that took place. In 1875 R.B. Swan writes that he   
   and others spoke in tongues. 1879 – W.J. Walthall also receives the baptism   
   of the Holy Spirit, speaking in tongues. In 1880 in Kara Kara, Armenia a   
   strong Pentecostal Movement breaks out with speaking in tongues. The same   
   year tongues is reported in Switzerland, and on and on. This also includes   
   the revival of Topeka Kansas in the 1900’s. All of them are a part of the   
   vast spreading movement of the spirit of God as these last days grow to a   
   close. No one can deny that there is definite historical proof to the   
   presence of tongues in the Church throughout the centuries. God has always   
   had a people called out for his namesake. His word has always been a part of   
   the hearts of men, and so it continues today.

   Foot notes remain to be posted. I did not write this but those that are   
   “cessationist’s” will have to deal with the evidences, and determine   
   whether they be of God or the Evil one.   
      
   Scripture declares that it is not to be forbidden. Also that in the early   
   ekklesia when people turned to God and were born again that it was an   
   evidence of who was and who was not. For those that did speak and or   
   prophesied, were determined to be worthy of water baptism.
