Bible Note: Doc, On this point, I think I have to disagree with you. I do believe that the spiritual gifts in the Bible are alive and still should be in practice today. Many today have come to abuse these gifts and falsely use them. I think you are correct, when anything is being presented as a message from God, it has to be put through the highest degree of discernment. If any part of the message doesn't line up with the Biblical truth, it should be disregarded. Does God still speak to His people today? YES! Will He ever say anything contrary to His Word? NO! Our dependency should be on Christ, not the miracles or gifts, these are blessings. Brad |
