1 | Why no prophets anymore? | 1 Cor 14:5 | BradK | 235844 | ||
Hello Edb, Allow me to share my perspective on 2 points: 1. In all fairness, I can find 3 positions regarding the question as to whether God still speaks today: Continuationism- This view holds that miraculous sign gifts are still being given and, therefore, God still speaks directly in various ways today. Hard Cessationism- This view holds that miraculous gifts ceased with the death of the last apostle and the completion of the New Testament. Therefore God does not speak directly to people today. Soft Cessationism- This view holds that miraculous sign gifts could still be given today, but believers need to be careful about outright acceptance of people's claims of possession. I personally would be in the Soft-Cessationist camp. In saying so, I have modified my view from that of a Hard Cessationist over the years from study:-) While this is certainly an important issue and one that carries much emotional baggage, I don't feel it a test of fellowship. It's not a core doctrine of Historic Orthodoxy; 2. Regarding Doc's statement. I realize you find it objectionable, but I don't see any "violation of forum guidelines". While I also don't want to presume to speak for him, he is free to share his view regarding this matter. He did so. You are as well. You did so. I fail to see this as any violation, my friend. Sorry! Doc is not pressing this matter or carrying on with any bias, so beyond your objection to his view, what's the problem? I don't see one:-) May we simply agree to disagree agreeably on this point? Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

Who said anything about Doc on the forum? What you are bringing up is something that wasn't discussed openly. But now that you did let me respond if I had characterized something pertaining to Reformed Theology that was doctrinally fundamental to their belief system in the manner that Doc did with a doctrinally and commonly held practice of Pentecostalism I guarantee you it would immediately have been censored. |
