My prayer is for all who disagree deal with the person who taught you incorrectly rather than argue against what’s clearly explained in the Bible. One of our problems as Christians is we follow too much and don’t lead our own spiritual lives. It’s in the Book! When we’re judged, you won’t be able to rely on what you’ve been taught! Please listen, read to understand and not to argue back, then help the next person!

With all due respect. I just wanted to throw this out there. I am telling you that there are different countries that I have heard of that if you go there to minister you better be sure that the gifts of the Spirit are operating with you or you will pack up and leave. Why you may ask? Because they see the work of witchcraft in operation consistently and if you can't demonstrate that Jehovah is all powerful you will be unable to reach them. This is why I am convinced that the gifts of the Spirit has not ceased. All power belongs to our awesome God.

The Gifts are still here hallelujah!!!Ephesians 4:11-16 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:
From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love. also in the book of Acts 2:17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams. & In Mark 16:17-18 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. Also in Joel 2:28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions, Glory to God Almighty he have blessed us with the gifts.

Instead of going home and reading our Bibles and asking God to give us true understanding we was at church every Sunday asking God for a word

The gifts of the Spirit are alive and well.

When we read I Corinthians 12 and 13, we see that Paul is instructing the church, not the disciples or Apostles on the use and misuse of these gifts.

He talks about hoe they are for the building up, the edification of the church.

Well, the church is alive and well, so we must assume that the Spiritual are as well.

Amen

I agree with you that the ceaseionists are over correcting due to all the false prophets and abuse of gifts . Im in the same place you are with going by scripture not what man thinks.

I lean more towards cessation of specific gifts but not all gifts. What do I mean by that? I mean the "miraculous" outward gifts that validated the apostles are not operational as they were in the early church. But the gifts are for the edification of the church e.g. gift of teaching, gift of service, etc. These sort of gifts I think are still active in the church.

I could be wrong, but I believe the gifts are present in the context of missions. We see this in the Bible during the early establishment of the church. Remember, the sign gifts were to authenticate their message.

Thank you Corey I really appreciate your input when I was sitting in a church where people were operating up under whatever gifts God was dealing with me then about the truth that was in the Bible and he still dealing with me now

I believe you are fo real about your Christian walk, that being said you also remind me of a modern day Thomas. I do believe the Lord still works the same today ONLY in his timing, I agree with you that YES in these last and evil days more miracles WILL be done in the name of the Lord as well in the satanic realms as well. It's a strong possibility that someone in your own family Corey who never served the Lord, didn't want to hear about him etc. WILL do the everything you've read in the Bible ALL to the glory of their God. Be blessed

Joel 2:28
28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:
Acts 2:17
17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:

The answer is simple if we are still in the last days which we are and people are still dreaming dreams than prophecy hasn’t ceased because dreams haven’t ceased nor has any of the gifts of the spirit.
All flesh means everyone has the ability to receive the Spirit of God if they desire him. Salvation comes from hearing the preaching of the gospel and spiritual gifts come the same way through the preaching that Jesus Christ is a healer & deliverer of the spirit as well as the body of the believer, but if you don’t believe what is preached than you want receive either salvation or the baptism of the Holy Spirit!!!! If the gifts have ceased than Christ hasn’t risen from the dead and there is no salvation in the gospel.
Jesus said these words himself Mark 16:17-18
17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
If you are a believer the Holy Spirit will manifest himself in your Ministry if you are a unbelievabler he want because you will only preach the parts that you personally believe in and if all you preach is the cross than the only Manifestation you will see is the salvation of the believer but if you preach Christ the healer you will see the healing power of the almighty Christ in your The Holy Spirit is limited by unbelief, The word of God says nothing is impossible to those who believe It’s that

My opinion, i might be wrong:
In Ac 2 the Tongues were real languages, thus required no interpretation; while in 1-Cor 14 there are certain Tongues included that require the Gift of interpretation. I don't think Divine "interpretation" is the same as human "translation" that you learn in the flesh. The Gifts of the Holy Spirit are spiritual, not academic.
1. There were prophets from Jerusalem whose prophecies are not recorded in Scripture, except by Agabus, concerning a famine, a warning that was acted upon:
Ac 11^27-30 ; (Ac 13^1)
2. Also, the prophecies by the 4 daughters of an evangelist at Ceasarea are not recorded in Scripture; the prophet Agabus also gave a prophetic warning to Paul:
Ac 21^8-11
3. Timothy received personal prophecies concerning his ministry and Gift:
1-Tim 1^18 ; 1-Tim 4^14
4. It seems that the Gifts will only cease at "the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ"; knowing now only in part until we see Him face to face:
1-Cor 1^7 ; 1-Cor 13^9-12
5. Some disciples at Ephesus spoke in Tongues and prophesied after receiving the Holy Spirit, these prophesies are not recorded in Scripture:
Ac 19^6
6. Also, why would God inspire Scripture for us concerning the Gifts in the church if already expired? These Gifts, including prophecy, are given, not to add to Scripture, but to edify and equip the church:
1-Cor 12 & 14 ; Eph 4^8-12
7. Jesus and John warned us against "false" prophets, not against all prophecy; test the spirits:
Mat 24^24 ; 1-Jn 4^1-3
8. We should not despise prophesy:
1-Thess 5^19-21
9. We are encouraged to desire the Gifts, especially prophesy, but are given by the Holy Spirit as He wills:
1-Cor 14^1 ; 12^11

If we are still living in the church age than all these gifts still exist.
