But also for those other then the disciples as in bold. Does that mean only those who heard from the disciples are the very last ones? I wouldn't think so. That would carry on through the generations of believers who also matured in the Faith.
I agree, it would also carry on to others.

My question is: What is the general attitude and practice of Messianic Jews in regards to the manifestations/gifts of the Spirit (tongues, prophecy, healings, words of knowledge, etc.)? Are they believed to be in operation today? And, if so - is this more of an intellectual acknowledgement, or do Messianic believers tend to actually practice the gifts and demonstrate God's power during services or in events connected with the community?

Thanks for any answers!

For me, and I am only speaking for myself, If the apostolic writings teach it clearly as being something for the church then I believe it.

I am biased in some respects as although I am a sabbath keeper (amongst other aspects of a Torah lifestyle), I also attend a 'normal' church on sundays which is thoroughly charismatic/pentecostal in its outlook.

Is that Chesterfield MO? I too believe in the clear teachings of biblical God being the same today and for always, and does require His followers to also stand on the same foundation. I too attend a variety of groups/churches who have gems in the spiritual walk, that I receive the blessings of fellowship with. Our synagogue is very biblical studious in its services to its congregation. It doesn't stop the members from experiencing or presenting a spiritual life.

I believe we can be a vehicle for works by Our Father as Yeshua said we would do even greater works.
My 2 cents.

Agreed! Yeah!

God hasn't changed; He is the same yesterday, today, and forever more. If those things were in operation back then, they still can be today. Personally, however, I don't believe that speaking in tongues is how most Christians believe it to be. Bibically, I don't believe they mesh. Paul tells us not to covert to speak in tongues but to prophecy (and by that I don't believe he means coming up with new things. One who tells others about the Bible still prophecies). God gives His people gifts in His timing when they need it for His work. I love it when the Bible says that 'the Spirit came upon them' because you know that something supernatural is about to take place. And it always has a purpose. It is not something that they just do. I know many who think that by professing these things it proves that they are right with God. We show our faith by our works and how we live. Not so much by what gift of ministry we have been given.'For not the hearers of the Law are just before God but the DOERS of the Law shall be justified.' 'For faith without works is dead.'The gifts of the Spirit are love, joy, peace, longsuffering, temperence, meekness, and so on. They are the gifts that show that God is working in us.

The majority of Messianics who we know are also very charasmatic and so yes, they and we, do very much believe in the Gifts of the Spirit. The last few "get togethers" we have had have been full of prophecy and words of knowledge.

I personally believe that a New Pentecost will come through Jewish believers to many ppl, His born by the Spirit covenant ppl will be filled with His mighty power again, as at the begining & will be manifested before many.
