Now who's derailing the thread?
how's that?
Re: Churches that Don't Allow Tongues and Prophecy in Meetings disobey Bible
former pentecostals themselves saying why the premise of the Op is false is derailing?
i'll repost it later..
Now who's derailing the thread?
Gee SarahM777, but it is all right to say the gifts of the Spirit is no longer is necessary for the church, when Jesus himself spoke about them, and then tell us this is God's way now. You are doing exactly what you blame others of doing.The sad part is when they say that it's OK with God to do so and it's that it's still suppose to be from God,they make God out to be a liar,because their saying didn't really mean what He so plainly said.
Again, refusing to comply, answering only when it's convenient. Why is it you are the only one you believe can make demands? Why can't something be demanded of you? Because you're the Great & Powerful Oz? Always leaving when convenient, or properly translated, you don't have an answer.

You just keep projecting the blame on everybody else. It's everybody else but you and your pack.

Would you apply the same reasoning to those who deny that certain spiritual gifts are given to the saints or to the commandments to allow them and not forbid them in the church?
i complied. yesterday i posted a ton of scriptures on apostles - the ones in scripture - about Jesus saying THERE WERE HIS WITNESSES.
i asked several times if you were among them. seen Him in His resurrection?
you're pretty old, by my reckoning, then.

if they were the REAL gifts, they still wouldn't would be in the churches right now.
the real gifts were partial.
the complete Revelation is here.
Pastor Stephen.
is it possible to know what direct revelations the Lord had graced your church with?
have you shared them with the greater Body?
if not.....why not?
Here we go again.................. with your psychological projection, stating I'm the one who has the problem, that I'm the one not listening to scripture. Don't think you can flip that on me, I know better.
Urban Dictionary: psychological projection
1. Projection is the psychological phenomenon where someone thinks everyone else is doing and thinking what they are. It is usually seen as the externalisation of a person's negative traits, placing blame on an outside force such as the environment, a government, a society or other people.
2. Projection can also extend to philosophy and knowledge. This occurs when a person or small group of people assume that everyone else is working with the same ideas and/or information that they are. When this fails to happen, however, it can lead to pluralistic ignorance. A telltale sign of this is when a speaker says that "Everybody knows that...(a certain course of action)" is either beneficial or harmful, so society should avoid an impending catastrophe by following the course of action that the speaker proposes.
3. Another common forum for projection is in internet arguments, where it is usually pathetically obvious to everyone except the projector. The problem is recognized in intelligence analysis, in the form of cognitive traps for intelligence analysis.

use it to mature. the faith has been delivered once for all.
unless you have new information - in which case we need new Bibles.
Stephen,
Are you aware that physcology has it's roots in humanism? It was never based on Biblical principals. The man who started it was an atheist.
Would you apply the same reasoning to those who deny that certain spiritual gifts are given to the saints or to the commandments to allow them and not forbid them in the church?
After I have come to a saving knowledge of Christ what remains? What needs revealed that the Holy Spirit does not reveal through the word of God? As a saint of God do I not have the mind of Christ?If your knowledge is complete, tell me, what did the seven thunders in the book of Revelation say?
Why would you believe that stuff about the Greek aorist and 'them that believe' if your knowledge is complete? Wouldn't you completely know Bible doctrine?
Do you believe your understanding now so exceeds Paul's when he wrote I Corinthians 13 that his is like a child's in comparison?
Are you also aware that the medical field accepts psychological projection,that it's a symptom of narcissism, it's a fact, & that you're doing it?
NOPE.
As usual, you go to the Internet and search with buzzwords.
Some of us would rather use Bible commentaries, encyclopedias, and dictionaries.
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia:
3. The Wider Circle:
It is sometimes said by those who recognize that there were other apostles besides the Twelve and Paul that the latter (to whom some, on the ground of 1 Cor. 15:7; Galatians 1:19, would add James the Lord's brother) were the apostles par excellence, while the other apostles mentioned in the New Testament were apostles in some inferior sense. It is hardly possible, however, to make out such a distinction on the ground of New Testament usage. There were great differences, no doubt, among the apostles of the primitive church, as there were among the Twelve themselves—differences due to natural talents, to personal acquirements and experience, to spiritual gifts. Paul was greater than Barnabas or Silvanus, just as Peter and John were greater than Thaddaeus or Simon the Cananean. But Thaddaeus and Simon were disciples of Jesus in the very same sense as Peter and John; and the Twelve and Paul were not more truly apostles than others who are mentioned in the New Testament. If apostleship denotes missionary service, and if its reality, as Paul suggests, is to be measured by its seals, it would be difficult to maintain that Matthias was an apostle par excellence, while Barnabas was not. Paul sets Barnabas as an apostle side by side with himself (1 Cor. 9:5f; Galatians 2:9; compare Acts 13:2f; Acts 14:4, 14); he speaks of Andronicus and Junias as "of note among the apostles" (Romans 16:7); he appears to include Apollos along with himself among the apostles who are made a spectacle unto the world and to angels and to men (1 Cor. 4:6, 9); the natural inference from a comparison of 1 Thes. 1:1 with 2:6 is that he describes Silvanus and Timothy as "apostles of Christ"; to the Philippians he mentions Epaphroditus as "your apostle" (Phil. 2:25 the Revised Version, margin), and to the Corinthians commends certain unknown brethren as "the apostles of the churches" and "the glory of Christ" (2 Cor. 8:23 the Revised Version, margin). And the very fact that he found it necessary to denounce certain persons as "false apostles, deceitful workers, fashioning themselves into apostles of Christ" (2 Cor. 11:13) shows that there was no thought in the primitive church of restricting the apostleship to a body of 12 or 13 men. "Had the number been definitely restricted, the claims of these interlopers would have been self-condemned" (Lightfoot, Galatians, 97).
You see, zone, the difference between you and me is that you search for scriptures on the Internet that are already prefabricated and twisted to your taste. You never bother actually reading the actual scriptures to search out the rest of the facts. The bible says to show yourself approved to be able to rightly handle the word of truth. Scanning the Internet is hardly rightly handling God's truth. That's why such people are termed "Internet theologians", because all they know is what they see on the Internet.

Why anyone would believe in cessationism is beyond me too, since it's just as secular because it's not biblical at all.Does not matter if they do or not. It still has it's roots in humanism and was started by an atheist. Why any Christian would use secular humanism is beyond me.
