And they were all filled [that is, diffused throughout their being] with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues (different languages), as the Spirit was giving them the ability to speak out [clearly and appropriately].

• Is it possible for one to be a child of God without being able to speak in tongues?
• what happens when you pray for the gift of speaking in tongues bUt you don't receive it?
