I have never heard anyone who spoke in tongues reveal anything that is not already revealed in scripture.

I believe the Tongue Speaking today is a counterfeit.

As a spiritual gift, it is possible to communicate to man that which is already in scripture, but not being recognized in the present context.

God is not a god of confusion, though, so without the tongues being interpreted, they are good for nothingness, which is not an attribute of God.

1Co 14:27-33
(27) If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret.
(28) But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.
(29) Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.
(30) If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace.
(31) For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.
(32) And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.
(33) For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.
