This refers to the time now and the time to come.
When we are with God IS the only time it will be perfect.
So, when John, the last apostle died, the gifts just ceased? The gifts become dead. Effective immediately! LOL.
Or???
How many received 'gifts' before they ceased? How many bibles were handed out? Did it begin in the Ottoman Empire, the , LOL, can't you see how odd it is to see that the gifts wouldn't just cease?? Diminish? Maybe, like I just said in 'Speak God' thread, Romans were killing Christians so much in 3rd century that the gifts likely decreased . Idk, I guess I need to have been alive in Roman times, seems odd though that the gifts God gave the people, NOT just the apostles, would suddenly stop. Do you SEE the wealth if writing by Paul on the gifts ! The ministerial offices of prophet, apostle, preacher, this was ORGANIZATION being laid out for churches to follow age to age. The power of the Holy Spirit akin to the power of preaching the Gospel, the SAME, the Word, made flesh the Word made Spirit. Dichotomy. One. Ans, don't forget God, He is in three, too
Why, why, why, why. No worries either feed, Christbro, I just feel His leading, I have NO dog in this fight,cfar as spiritual gifts go, I've asked for but never received any tongues speaking, prophecy, etc, that I know of, anyway, but, don't matter my perfect salvation is found in my Saviour's grace and following Him in myvlife, His no matter what. And, has He at times shown me signs (wonders) of His power, His eye on this sparrow? Absolutely! I have fairy He has.
Anyway, nuff fer now, feedbuddy, my one verse, I think, of Proverbs 4 perfectly points to the 'perfect" of 1 Cor. 13:8-10 .
Feedme, talk to me ONLY about Scripture of 'the perfect come' and 'face to face,' if you can , in 100 words or less, appreciated
