Blaspheming the Holy Spirt: A Theory

 I was in church the other Sunday and the preacher began to speak in tongues, and I wondered, "what if this guy really isn't speaking in tongues, but is pretending?  Would that be blasphemy?"  So, what is blasphemy?  It is defined as, the act or offense of speaking sacrilegiously about God or sacred things; profane talk.  Therefore, does speaking in tongues, fall under profane talk?  Well, yes it would be profane if one were pretending to speak in tongues because when one speaks in tongues, he is speaking to God, so the sacrilege would stem from pretending to speak in a heavenly language.  Paul, said he went to heaven and heard words that can't be spoken on earth, but would rather speak 5 words in a known tongue than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue [1 Corinthians 14:19].  So why do people speak in tongues if it is frowned upon in the bible.

Well, the bible says that in the last days people will have a form of godliness but deny the power of God.  That's what speaking in tongues is.  When one is pretending to speak to God and making a show to be praised of men, he is denying the power of God to hear his words and grant his petitions.  

One of my friends has always boasted that he could speak in tongues and did so on numerous occasions, but recently told me that he converted to Judaism and no longer believed in the New Testament.  So, I asked him if he could still speak in tongues and he said yes.  I informed him that speaking in tongues was a New Testament ordinance delivered to us by Christ; therefore one must believe in Christ/Jesus to speak in tongues.  He could not explain himself.  Could it be that he was pretending to be a Christian the entire time, and never believed in Christ?  The bible says that if he had been one of us, he would have remained with us[1 John 2:19]...
