    The verse has its own context :

    Which makes it apply inside church as well as outside church. Anyone means anyone.

    Right. I never even mentioned the physical church.

    So where did you get "within earshot" from ? Are the devils that are within earshot supposed to make a recording then bring that to other devils who are able to translate ?

    They do if they're there to hear you pray them. That's all I meant. Not in an omniscient way. :)

    Paul was instructing the church concerning tongues, and one of his points is the fact that when a person speaks in tongues before others, he is not naturally understood...except by those to whom God desires to speak, personally.
