Did you point and laugh??? Hahahahahahahaha!

Give it up. We won't play your game.

He missed out the one where it says that the Lord hangs the earth on nothing, and the other one that talks about the circle of the earth. the guy just wants to argue and have two horse races where he says and he says and he says and so on ad nauseum.

He asked the question to trap you. He's not interested in wanting to know more about the gifts of the Spirit. He just wants to have a two horse race with you about things that are pointless to the discussion.

I suspected that your question was a loaded one and not sincere.

If all else fails, kick the other players instead of the ball.

Last night I watched a Youtube video about a academic who went to Israel to prove that the resurrection never took place. He found so much evidence supporting it, that he became a committed believer in Christ.

When I was a mature student, I got down to my last $100 and so I prayed that I have never asked for money before, but I think I need to now. The very next day I got a phone call from a local postmaster (I used to work for the Post Office) offering me a part time job. That gave me enough funds...

Good post. Miracles of the sun is right away from the Lord showing compassion on sick people by healing them.

Granted. There is a difference between God making someone's name great, and the fellow making his own name great.

Sounds feasible, but I don't like to read too much into the Scriptures. However I do offer prayer to anyone who comes across my path with a medical condition. No unbeliever has ever refused my offer. They seem to appreciate that I care enough to want to offer a prayer for them. You want to...

And He does them today for exactly the same reasons. We are still in the church age. This means that the same Holy Spirit power is available to our modern church as it was in the early 1st century church. The reason why we don't see that power often manifested is due to the lack of...

In support of your insightful post: Unfortunately there is no Scriptural user manual for the five-fold ministries, and so there have been differences of opinion and practice about how these ministries are to be performed. Because Paul had only the Old Testament Scriptures as the basis of his...

There are certainly gifts of healing as specified in 1 Corinthians 12, and they are given to the body of Christ for strengthening, and not for building up the reputation of any one big-name fellow. Also, we need to bring James 5:14 into the equation to see that the gifts of healing is...

I have a record of 130 testimonies of people who were miraculously healed of all types of incurable medical conditions in Auckland NZ alone. I have also seen hundreds of testimonies from all around New Zealand of people being miraculously healed. These testimonies go right against your view...

I just had a good read of the chapter and came to my own conclusion about what Paul defined as prophecy. If the Holy Spirit speaks through a sermon or message wouldn't that be prophetic. What about a sermon where the Holy Spirit doesn't speak? Wouldn't that be a man-dreamed sermon? I have...

Actually, if we read the book of Acts carefully, the miracles of healing occurred in the context of the evangelism of the pagans to show that Jesus Christ has more power than their demonic gods. The same happens today among pagan people of the third world, and neo pagans of our societies. But...

That's what you get from kicking against sound doctrine! :cool:

Actually, Paul, in 1 Corinthians 14 equated prophecy with sharing insights from Old Testament Scripture as well as bringing a 'revelation'. He says that if someone is speaking and another has a 'revelation' the first speaker should stand aside and let the second one speak. I think that Paul...

Yes it is. Apart from the lunatic fringe who are never seen as part of the hard core of a church, I have a wide circle of friends in the Charismatic church, and they are not given to emotional highs at all. The "emotional high" accusation of Charismatics is just an old chestnut that has been...
