Speaking in tongues is ALWAYS worship.
Throughout the book of Acts, the believers always spoke in tongues glorifying God after the Holy Spirit fell upon them.
Never at any time was the gospel preached by tongues speaking.
I do not see any two kinds of tongues in any other books either, when speaking of the gift.
Tongues were a sign to unbelievers so they were not something necessarily private either.
The worship of the Father in Spirit and in truth does not rule out worship in ones own language, but much so called worship comes from the flesh and not from being filled with the Spirit.
The beat of the jungle , and the repeating of the same phrases over and over in song, are not the sounds one will hear in Heaven, nor on earth in true worship.
Leading people to worship does not require loud noise and amplifier equipment.
Most public meetings of believers (they are evangelical) who speak in tongues are not the meetings of the saints described by Paul in 1 Cor.ch s 12-14.
The Spirit of Heaven---
Act 2:1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
Act 2:2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
Act 2:3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
Act 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Act 10:44 While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.
Act 10:45 And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Act 10:46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,
Act 10:47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?
Act 10:48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.
Rev 5:11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;
Rev 5:12 Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.
Rev 5:13 And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.
Rev 5:14 And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.
Joh 4:23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
Joh 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
