It is my firm conviction, based on the Scriptures, that the gift of “tongues' from Acts 2 is speaking a previously unknown language.

We see tongues spoken only two other times in Acts when the Gospel reached the concentric spheres mentioned in 1:8 and then it ended in Acts 19 when the Gospel reached the so-called “remotest part of the earth” (cf. Ac. 2:4; 8:17; 10:46 and 19:6).
