I wrote it. And I think I've explained the subject. You're placing what Paul said in a completely different timeframe than intended by him. Once again, read carefully and understand who the letters were written to and subjects being addressed on THAT timeperiod. Gifts were short lived and served a unique purpose then. They had no bible as well now do. The church was brand new plagued with many issues as you can see by the content of tge letters. Also you can see the church was going astray early on. Read the 1st 3 chapters of Revelation; to the 7 churches of Asia.

clearly you don't understand that it is God in us that gives and operates the gifts so no she has no control over it because it isn't her that is speaking it is the holy spirit
but it would be the occult to you regardless you accuse her of claiming to have supernatural abilities and you accuse her of the occult if she says it is the holy spirit in her that does it no matter what she says it is a lose lose situation with you
so honestly it is the gift you are against and no matter what is said you have your mind set in stone and will not be swayed no matter what even though even the scriptures speak against you
but by all means show me otherwise can you prove it is the occult? is there scripture you can provide that shows that the gift has ceased? if not then all your doing is childish attacks and accusations with no basis or ground to stand on

I said I have experienced the gifts not all of them but some of them tongues prophecy for example no I didn't see tongues of fire but I did experience God's power through tongues and it certainly was an eye opener. I also have experienced his power from laying of hands as well not that it matters what I experienced or testify as you already don't and refuse to believe in the supernatural aspect of God
I don't know if your a calvanist but I do know you don't believe in the supernatural aspect of God who by definition is supernatural so I am not sure why it is a surprise to hear him operate in the supernatural.
But yes I am legally blind

People conflate being legally blind with being completely blind. All it takes is a little
research to find out that there is indeed a difference. You would think it easy enough...
1 Corinthians 12 verse 2-3 & from Romans 8 verse 9 ~ You know that when you were pagans, you were influenced and led astray to mute idols. Therefore I inform you that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, “Jesus be cursed,” and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit. You are controlled by the Spirit if the Spirit of God lives in you. The Spirit of truth proceeds from the Father to testify about Jesus.
