Acts 10:46-48 King James Version (KJV)
46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,
47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?
48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.
Acts 10:46-48 New King James Version (NKJV)
46 For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God.
Then Peter answered, 47 “Can anyone forbid water, that these should not be baptized who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?” 48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then they asked him to stay a few days.

These are my thoughts, please share yours.
46 Speaking in tongues isn’t intended ever to bring glory to self but to give glory to the Lord. We should always magnify God with not just our mouths but also thru our actions.
47 The Baptism came after they received the Spirit which shows salvation happens before baptism and that baptism isn’t apart of it but evidence of us being committed to our walk with Him in sanctification.
48 They baptized them and they stayed with them for a few days, this most likely would have been intended for discipleship and is something we as the church don’t focus enough on today.
