I have read a number of their responses and it is past being an assertion, it is clearly an observation. They are all delusional and lack real depth of intellect. IOW...dull.

How convenient, a build-in excuse to ignore the obvious. And a rather poor excuse at that. A great example of the depth of the delusion that Pentecostals live in. 1st Corinthians 14:32 "and the spirits of prophets are subject to prophets;" Wait...wait let me guess. This verse does not...

It's the same reason the Pentecostal "faith healers" are not banned from hospitals and morgues.

And this is what the OP is about. The Pentecostal movement is claiming the "witness and testimony" narrative is still among us. The Pentecostal movement today still claims human resurrections are happening today. Presidente has puts forward people such as Craig Keener and Mahesh Chavda on this...

The question is are you believing in the Holy Spirit and its power? It seems you are putting your faith into unproven claims of "wonders" and not the Biblical examples of "wonders".

If you would simply read the OP you would understand that this is about the claims of the Pentecostal churches. And there are no "signs, healings and wonders in broader sense". If there were there would be no need to insist on its existence. If the New Testaments manifestations were active...

Intellectuals won't take this seriously? What does their view on the validity of the claims of physical supernatural manifestations have do with the rest of the 99% of the population from experiencing the New Testament Age that you claim we are all living in? What about the rest of us? The...

You say you don't agree with the OP but your words seem to say the opposite. You state: "You know, the devil once mocked such a charlatan - "Jesus I know, Paul I know, but who are you?" The OP is about the false claims of the Pentecostal movement, they are the "charlatans" you are speaking...

The OP (which I suspect you have not read) labels cessationism as an observation of the lack of supernatural physical manifestations of the Holy Spirit as it was during the age of New Testament. I agree with the OP that we are not living in such an age. Do you also agree?

You are fooling no one by sidestepping the issue. Again, the question is not "have to be added" the question is can it be added to scripture? The etymology of the English word "canon" is a strawman. If the Holy Spirit gives us a prophetic message should it not be given the due respect of...

Not to pile on but have you really read the OP? Are you agreeing that the Pentecostal movement is but "snake oils with a Christian facade"? The OP is calling the Pentecostal movement out not "paying them attention and/or giving them credits". You seem to see the Pentecostal movement as "just...

This is not a matter of "should" the supernatural prophesy be added, it is an issue of "can" these supernatural prophesies of the Holy Spirit be added to the Bible? And you know it. The Pentecostals and their ilk have claimed to be given prophesies by God for decades and never once added any...

You are sidestepping his point, this is easy to see. If prophesy is a supernatural event why do all Christian groups (expect the Mormons) accept that the canon is closed? Even Bibles published by Pentecostals will not add their own supernatural prophetic words that was given to them by the...

Labeling the mundane claims of modern Pentecostals as physical supernatural manifestations of God is a mockery of the Holy Spirit. When the actual miracles (such as the ones of the New Testament) truly appear, those like you will be ashamed of your words. Observing the natural world around us...

This is a classic example of not understanding the use of a generality in grammar. A common error.

No, this is exactly what you are saying. The story of the Prodigal Son teaches us that we are to come to our senses. The offer to repent is given to all but few take it.

Wounds of His crucifixion. Made by men.

Can you not understand what Genez is telling you?

People claiming to believe someone they met has some esoteric knowledge or that they saw someone get healed does not make them a reliable witness. It just makes them a claimant. Example: I have mentioned before that you seem rather dull. This is my claim and I sincerely believe this to be...

This is not about people lying about personal experiences, that is about the lack of the prima facie that should be quite evident if we were living in a continuation of the age of the miraculous. You are attempting to defend this narrative of ongoing physical supernatural manifestations of the...
