Tounges of Flames

The Apostles along with other followers of Jesus
meet and elect Matthies to replace Judes as a member
Of the twelve on Pentecost  The Holy Spirit descends on them

The Apostles hear a great wind and witness
 tounges of flames descend on them
Therefore the Apostles have the miracalous
power to speak in tounges

And when they address a crowd
each member of the crowd hears their speech
in his own native language
