'Yes and No.'
Everybody who has received the Holy Spirit speaks in tongues as a sign.
But not everybody also operates in the gift of tongues.
In other words, in the bible, we find two types of speaking in tongues.
- The accompanying sign of speaking in tongues, according to Jesus in Mark 16:17:
"And these signs shall follow those who believe ... in my name ... they will speak with new tongues ..."
- And the gift of tongues, according to Paul in 1 Corinthians 12:10-11:

Have you already received the wonderful<br />
gift of the Holy Spirit since you became a<br />
believer in Jesus Christ?<br />
If not yet, find out how you can easily receive<br />
Holy Spirit today—even if you have already tried<br />
to receive many times before.<br />
There can be only one of two reasons why<br />
you haven’t received the Holy Spirit yet.<br />
1) You may not yet clearly understand that there<br />
is a Holy Spirit and why we can receive Him. You<br />
may be in the same position as some disciples<br />
from Ephesus in Acts 19. When Paul met them,<br />
he asked them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit<br />
when you believed?” They said to him, “We<br />
haven’t heard whether there is a Holy Spirit.”<br />
2) Or, you may be in the same position as some<br />
believers from Samaria in Acts 8. They had<br />
“believed” and “they were baptized.” But they<br />
still hadn’t received the Holy Spirit at that point.<br />
So then Peter and John came and “prayed for<br />
them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit.”<br />
Whichever position you are in—your time<br />
to receive Holy Spirit has come!<br />
