I'm not sure if I've heard that theory before. From my understanding, faith in Jesus is all that's needed to be saved. Of course, in heaven, language as we know it will cease to exist, and the various heavenly will communicate in some radically different form of language. But I don't think that on Earth, you have to have the Holy Spirit come down and make you suddenly start talking in a language different than your own for some reason or another in order to be saved. Beyond biblical stories, I've heard stories of people claiming that this has happened to them. But I don't think that it is a pre-requisite for getting into heaven.
