Please get it clear speaking in tongues does not at all mean you are spirit filled. As The Bible also says tongues shall cease.
it depends who you ask...some will teach that you are not holy ghost filled unless you have spoken in tongues at least once..as the initial evidence...others will say you need to speak in tongues on a regular basis...others will tell you that speaking in tongues is a false doctrine.......my personal belief is the first one i mentioned
No, speaking in tongues is just one of the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

29Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles?
30Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?

Being filled with the Holy Ghost refers to the ongoing experience of having the Holy Spirit's presence and influence in your life, helping you grow spiritually.

'Ghost' is a poor translation and 'Spirit' is a better one.A true Christian will have an 'outward' change as the old self is buried and the new self is born as that person is now 'begotten' in the God Family. The Holy Spirit will guide that individual to follow Jesus Christ - the perfect example for all mankind.Answer :It has become increasingly common for Christians to suppose that the full gospel includes the baptism of the Holy Spirit with evidence of speaking in tongues. Thus the question is: Is speaking in tongues the evidence of being baptised by the Holy Spirit? First, as the apostle Paul makes plain, believers are "all baptized by one Spirit into one body" (1 Corinthians 12:13), yet not all who believe speak in tongues (vv 10, 30). Thus tongues may be a manifestation of the baptism of the Holy Spirit, but tongues cannot be the manifestation.Furthermore, even if one does speak in tongues it is not a guarantee that they have been baptized in the Holy Spirit. For as Paul put it, " Though I speak in tongues of men and angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling symbol (1 Corinthians 13:1).Finally, as Scripture makes clear, the normative sign of the baptism of the Holy Spirit is not speaking in tongues but the confession of Jesus Christ as Lord, repentance from sin, and obedience to God (Romans 8:1-17, 1 John 4:12-16).
