TRUE BIBLE TONGUES; SPOKEN LANGUAGES THAT BENEFIT THE HEARERS THROUGH UNDERSTANDING IN A LANGUAGE KNOWN TO THEM.
"...every man heard them speak in his own language."
1 Corinthians 14:4
Acts 2:6
"He that speakteh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church." (To speak to others in a language that is unknown to them does not benefit them, even if the speaker enjoys the truths they are speaking. However if that speaker teaches something in a language that can be understood, then that is a benefit to others. Also notice that the word "unknown" is italicized. This means this word was added by the KJV translators and is not literally of the original Greek scriptures. Students of the Scriptures will find that the Greek word for tongue directly references the distinct language or dialect used by a particular people. Since we know that "tongue" actually references "language", the added word "unknown" may be omitted as it may cause confusion or mis-understanding.)
Acts 10:46
"For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God." (With Understanding)
1 Corinthians 14:33
"For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints."
1 Corinthians 14:40
"Let all things be done in decently and in order." (No Chaos to be in Gods Churches)
