A far cry from what goes on in most Pentecostal churches that I've been in. It's usually chaos.

You've yet to tell us what language 'these groups' speak and what the chaos is about. Most Christians are happy, you could be interpretation their happiness for chaos, I don't know. Why be critical, just don't attend them - they aren't for you.

And yet, here we have in America, people in churches in droves seeking tongues.

WHAT? What kind of churches do you go to in America? It's almost a non event in any church I've been in.

Calling it *evidence* is calling a rose by any other name.

You can dispute God's Word all you want but I'll take HIM at His Word, He knows BEST and it's true for me and those I know. Your experiences don't define what is Truth.

Chaos is when everyone in church is told to *worship in the Spirit* and everyone starts speaking out loud at the same time in tongues, all the while the *worship team* is playing their instruments *in the Spirit* which means that it would sound better if they were merely tuning them up.

It's a cacophony, IOW, chaotic.

When at the end of a service, people are told that if they want to be filled with the Spirit, that they can come up for prayer and the first thing asked is if they've spoken in tongues, something is out of line. And when someone is being prayed over for 20 minutes or more for the filling and haven't spoken in *tongues* yet, they aren't let go.

I know people who have faked it just to be let go.
