The miraculous gift of healing along with the gift of divine revelation were given to the early church. These gifts were given temporarily in the apostolic era for the purpose of confirming and authenticating the apostles' message. See Hebrews 2:3,4 and 2 Corinthians 12:12. See also the Book of Acts for numerous examples of this occurrence. .... "With the New Testament revelation now complete," writes John MacArthur, "Scripture becomes the sole test of the authenticity of a man's message, and confirming gifts of a miraculous nature are no longer necessary to validate a man or his message." See 1 Corinthians 13:8-12. MacArthur continues, "Miraculous gifts can even be counterfeited by Satan so as to deceive even believers (Matthew 24:24). The only gifts in operation today are those non-revelatory equipping gifts given for edification (Romans 12:6-8). No one possesses the gift of healing today, but God does hear and answer the prayer of faith and will answer in accordance to His own perfect will for the sick, suffering and afflicted (Luke 18:1-8; John 5:7-9; 2 Corinthians 12:6-10; James 5:13-16; 1 John 5:14,15)." (MacArthur Study Bible (Word Publishing), p. 2196). ..... Anyone who claims miraculous gifts of healing or any other special revelation today today does not and cannot base his claims solidly on Scripture. He is therefore making a false claim and should be viewed as a false prophet and a charlatan. --Hank | ||||||
