I was using the other poster's terminology. I realize that is one interpretation of gifts of healing.

What do you think the 'accountability age' is?

Look, that passage isn't about 'preaching.' Like I said, 'preaching' shows up in references outside of the assembly (it depends on the translation. The KJV deviates from the norm in Acts 20.) It doesn't call it preaching, but there were women who told the apostles of Christ's resurrection...

This passage has been dubbed the Great Commission: Matthew 28 18 ;And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20...

I don't see any restriction on women preaching in scripture. The scriptures that mention either preaching or teaching... mention teaching. __Generally__ in our Bible translations, 'preach' is used for evangelistic proclamation outside of a 'church' setting.

Do Paul's letters contain commands to believers that they evangelize? Paul wrote letters to Titus and Timothy also, btw.

This is really foolish. Very poor logic. But it is typical of your posts in this thread so far.

That's not even rational. Who cares what your hypothetical Dr. Joe thinks, and how is that relevant to the conversation. You were writing as if there is no evidence to examine and I was asking if you researched claims that exist before making your proclamations of fact.... that don't line up...

I asked him if he had researched the claims that had some documentation. Goo look at how I wrote it. This was based on how he was arguing. Based on scripture, it is not reasonable to assert all miracles are false. It is also unreasonable to pretend there is no evidence to examine. I can...

I believe in spiritual gifts, but I see that as a problem. But I think we should expand it to include glorifying God, discipleship and edifying other believers, and doing good to all men, especially them that believe.

I told him there were claims. I believe I said I hadn't researched it, but asked him if he had researched the claim in the book he wrote with a death certificate printed in it. I haven't read it yet. The point was that he didn't research claims, just made his statements. And you like to just...

Btw, I can't think of any scripture off the top of my head that says that the Holy Spirit is involved specifically in mundane healing, but if scripture is silent on the matter, I would find it incredibly foolish to argue that He is not. Psalm 107:20 says He sent his word, and healed them, and...

Maybe he was talking about people getting saved.

You are just being obnoxious here, as you have been throughout the thread. I would prefer an intellectually honest conversation where we discuss issues, rather than where one person tries to 'win' by ad hominem style attacks, trying to impugn the other's motives. My post was straightforward...

Tell me about your beliefs on 'real healings' returning. Where does the Bible teach real healings left and then others returned. If you are sick, and you pray for healing and God answers your prayer healing you in two days, isn't that a 'real healing' if God answered your prayer? God is also...

I think we agree with the verse, but not all of us re-read it to say 'they have ceased.... it has vanished away....'

I would also point out this quote is an example of being obnoxious.

You need to understand what the Bible is. The New Testament is the writing of the apostles in the early and their closest associates that communicate the Daring revealed by Christ and to the apostles through the Holy Spirit. It is not every prophecy the Holy Spirit has given. If you will...

So, base doctrine on no scripture at all? Just get a chart and write 'church age' on it, and base doctrine on that, right? Show me where the Bible mentions 'the church age' and the other aspects of the doctrine you promoted in your post above.

Sorry, I just find your post to be obnoxious and a bit foolish. Why would genuine prophecies have to be added to the Bible if not all genuine prophecies in Biblical times (according to scripture) are in the Bible. And you know it. Irritating comment is it, that 'And you know it' stuff? Why...
