"Tongues and prophesy reach beyond the limits of logic and plain speech. Tongues are an ecstatic expression of the wondrous experience of the Holy Spirit. Tongues reach into foreign languages and beyond-like the many stops of an organ, opened up in full power, as the fingers touch one key after another. The sound is overwhelmingly beautiful, so much so that it drowns out and prohibits the accompanying sound of a singer's words. Communication is more by experience; it happens by touching the strings of emotion and the memory fibers in the heart. Such reactions are not subject to logic; they just happen!"
