Do Pentecostals think they are the only ones saved and if so why?

Answer

As one who has belonged to a Pentecostal church for almost ten years, I can say emphatically that the answer is no. I have never met a Pentecostal who thinks so. We believe that salvation is by faith in Christ and in his death for our sins on the cross, nothing else. Belonging to an organization, Pentecostal or otherwise, has nothing to do with salvation.

Answer

I do believe that you must emphatically have the pentecostal tongues as mention in the book of Acts. You must be born again!!

I just want to add that to speak in tongues does not equeal being born again. One can be born-again, without speaking in tongues.

Tongues is NOT a sign of being born-again. The bible tells us that the only sign of this is "fruit". In other words, if you're truely born-again, your life-style and actions will show it! Tongues is a "gift", and gifts are given out to whoever God wills to give them too, so not everybody suppossedly can/should/will speak in tongues. The bible tells us that where tongues are spoken, an interpreter should be there to interpret what is being said. Tongues are supposed to be "foreign existing earthly languages" but often that is not the case! That is why an interpreter is supposed tobe present!
