" 'In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams."

"This event is said to take place *in the last days* and what took place was the words out of the mouth was understood by all in their own native language, no interrupter was required it was literally the voice of the Holy Spirit. Has NOT happened yet."

Sorry, but there's nothing in either verse about it being "understood by all in their own native language".

OTOH---I've got several folks in my ROMAN CATHOLIC Bible study class who have had incidents of both speaking in and interpreting "tongues". And the Church has many instances of women saints being prophetesses.

Acts 2:1-6 Describes the *event* so ... Could you please then interrupt Acts 2:6 Now when this was *noised abroad* (literally = this voice having come) the multitude came together, and were *CONFOUNDED*, because that every man heard them speak in his own language. ?????? Verse 9 describes the languages that were present that understood one voice in their own language. This does not speak about an unknown gibberish tongue rather one that everyone understood in their own language out of one mouth.
