It's pretty interesting that many say certain gifts do not happen because people do not believe.
Romans 11:29 says Gods gifts are irrevocable. So gifts never ceased because people didn't believe.
Gifts are irrevocable by God you just posted that therefore Gifts have not ceased. The only place any of us found tongues will cease about moving past these to maturity loving each other and not downing one another for Love believes all things hopes all things and you knoiw the rest right

My understanding of what is conveyed is within the following cut and paste of Holy Scripture, the bold in particualr:

2Ti 3:1 Know also this, that in the last days shall come dangerous times.
2Ti 3:2 Men shall be lovers of themselves, covetous, haughty, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, wicked,
2Ti 3:3 Without affection, without peace, slanderers, incontinent, unmerciful, without kindness,
2Ti 3:4 Traitors, stubborn, puffed up, and lovers of pleasure more than of God:
2Ti 3:5 Having an appearance indeed of godliness but denying the power thereof. Now these avoid.

I am accountable to Father via Christ and his finished work completed in and by the croos where all beleivbers have everything they need for life anf Godliness.
cool:)
today you forgot what you said yesterday.
that's alright though.

I have answered this the gifts will never cease for God will never cease and God is Love Sister beyond this worlds understanding and only in the new Spirit of life provided at the cross the ressurection can one recieve this type of Love best described in 1 cor 13. Flesh does not know this nor can recieve this typeit is unnatural and we are called to die to sin (flesh) and be raised from the dead in the Spirit of God.
Again God never will cease and wiull use the Gifts as God wills not man.
i didn't ask if God would cease.
that's ridiculous.

does He part the Red Sea every sunday?:)

I responded to coconut and now you are wanting me to attack you? Really?
Nice attitude you have there.
It's one thing to disagree but to ask people to attack you is a bit out there. If you're here only to argue then I have nothing to say to you from this point on.

sorry i must say something i dissagree with you on that stand point there are still apostle and prophets today plus they where not more powerful then today because it wasnt them that had power the Holy Spirit worked threw them He did the signs wonders and miracles not them :) and the Holy Spirit still does them today for those who are willing
You and I don't have to agree on this my friend. I haven't any doubt that you are one of God's beloved in Christ :)

Luke11:13If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?

Nothing was ever directed at you personally, but if you take it that way that is your own conscience doing that for I have not condemned you or anyone. I do not have that right
My conscience Sister is clear and do Love and care for you

You know it is unfortuante for interpretations that get misplaced and to say something that was not said and i do remember a long tiime ago back when I first started posting here and we got off on a wrong foot where you thought I posted something wrong that I prooved I did not and you were fighting back then with Red and both of you were trashing each other. And this is flesh that always wars with no Love. Yet I know that the Love of God is in you both but flesh as I see here just keeps popping up and all I have ever said is I see this and am hopefully getting you to see this in order to walkin the Love of God that he has spread about in your heart Sister you are loved

Is that inclusive the Lonely Sailors' Church (LSC)?
For God's kingdom is not of this world if it were then Christ would not have gone to the cross to save us and make us citizens of heaven then put us back here as ambassadors representing the peace, the Joy, the righteusness found in the Holy Ghost of promise that is given to us by belief in the finished work of the cross
Ephesians 2:19Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God’s people and also members of his household
Philippians 3:20But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ,

Hebrews 8 very enlightening of truth in God through Christ revealed by the Holy Ghost
