    Is cessation an observation or theology?

    Hello! I hope your day is going well. The bible says some really exciting things that happened in the New Testament in regards to healing all who came looking for it: Acts 5:12-16 The apostles performed many signs and wonders among the people. And all the believers used to meet together in...

    Is cessation an observation or theology?

    To answer the OP in a slightly tongue in cheek way, there's a reason modern day prophets aren't banned from playing the lottery. God Bless.

    What did the duck say when it bought lipstick? “Put it on my bill. Why were the teacher’s eyes crossed? She couldn’t control her pupils. Apparently, you can’t use “beef stew” as a password. It’s not stroganoff. Why shouldn’t you write with a broken pencil? Because it’s pointless. What do you...

    Is cessation an observation or theology?

    Hello Lovette. Yes it's good to be cautious, to test everything and pray carefully. The Lord warned of false prophets coming, so we should be careful and alert: Matthew 24:34 For there shall arise false christs and false prophets and shall show great signs and wonders, insomuch that, if it...

    Is cessation an observation or theology?

    Hello. I hope you're having a good day. Where I would perhaps disagree with your viewpoint is similar to where I disagreed with Gideon's above. Take the writings of St Paul for instance, 2 Peter 3:16 says that the writings of Paul are part of scripture. That is perfect, pure, flawless, on the...

    Is cessation an observation or theology?

    Hello Gideon, good to hear from you. Where I would disagree with your viewpoint is in two places. Firstly, take for example the Missionary/teacher. When the Apostle Paul wrote a letter to the church in Galatia, this letter is considered to be part of scripture, on the same level as God...

    Is cessation an observation or theology?

    Hello Lovette, thanks for your reply. Good to meet you. I would agree that apostles were a special calling, the Epistles that the Apostles wrote were considered to be the very word of God, on the same level as God himself speaking, they are part of the closed Canon of scripture that has not...

    Is cessation an observation or theology?

    Hello! Just a couple of Qs perhaps for friendly discussion Are there Apostles today? If so, who are they? If not, would that mean Apostolic gifts have ceased? If the gifts are in existence today in the same measure as the New testament times, why did the Canon close with the book of...

    Is Salvation instantaneous and permanent?

    Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life (John 5:24) :)

    can you guys post something funny please?

    How do we know God likes coffee? Because the Bible says, He brews. Why wasn’t Boaz a nice man before he got married? He was Ruth-less. Who was the world’s first comedian? Samson. He brought the house down. The Pharisees believe in the resurrection of the dead, but the Sadducees don’t. That’s...

    King Charles is crowned king

    Hello Lanolin, Perhaps if all 'Christian' national leaders had the same moral perspective as the Prince of Monaco then that would not be possible. IMHO the issue seems to be that having 'Christian' values as a 'Christian' politician seems to be the exception rather than the rule. God Bless You :)

    King Charles is crowned king

    Yes you're right, a slip of the pen, the Prince of Monaco refused to sign abortion into Law because of his faith. The British Monarchs signed abortion into Law. As Jesus said, by their fruit you will know them. God Bless You :)

    King Charles is crowned king

    Hello! The acts of Parliament that many Christians in Britain find to be repugnant were signed into law by the Monarch, for example abortion. On the other hand the King of Monaco refused to sign abortion into law in his country. When the foundations are being eroded what can the righteous...

    can you guys post something funny please?

    A bald guy walked into a general store. 'Do you know where I can get a Toupée?' The shop assistant looked surprised and said 'Not off the top of my head!' What do you call a barber who only cuts bald people’s hair? Unemployed. What do you call a couple of chimpanzees sharing an Amazon account...

    Ephesians 2 is not preaching faith alone.

    Hello. I agree. Having an attitude of gratitude for what God has done for us, we will try to do things for his Kingdom. God Bless :)
