Hello again,
I hope all is well for you.
He is convinced that God has no power to do anything that involves supernatural power
I never denied God had power to do anything. Quote me where I said this please. God many times in scripture demonstrated His power.
You are failing to see key verses in scripture.
1-God does not lie
2-Scripture is "God breathed", from God, by God, written by holy men moved by the Spirit.
Therefore, if God does not lie, and He is the sole creator and author of scripture, and scripture states that miracles will cease, then God will not go back on His word.
It is pretty much a common sense deduction here. By saying that these miraculous gifts still occur, you are saying that God is a liar, since God had "moved" Paul into writing 1 Cor 13.
Even when you point out this fact all he does is invent more heresies to cover up his original heresies. And you will notice that he is never wrong and that everyone that is not a cessationist is always wrong.
First off, I never claimed to be a cessationaist. I simply am a Christian that studies and follows scripture. Scripture states that those gifts cease after "that which is perfect comes". The gospel is the perfect word of God. It has been completed for a very long time now.
Second, you have never used any such evidence, NOR even any scripture (mainly because you cannot find such), to support your claim. So you have pointed out nothing but hearsay. As they say, "moot" point. That has been your pointing out of things thus far. No evidence, not even scripture, no links, videos, pictures, nothing.
You just cannot prove miraculous gifts are still in use. It is because they are not.
He accuses me of not answering his questions but they are sheer arrogance
So questions like...."What is "that which is perfect?" is of "sheer arrogance"?
Questions like "Has the word been confirmed?" is of "sheer arrogance"?
Please elaborate on this. I am puzzled how those are of "sheer arrogance".
Is it because you cannot or do not know how to answer them?
Also, accuse, as you have said, implies that I merely a claim you did not answer my questions. The simple fact is, you never did. It's not a claim, it is fact and truth.
And I can tell you that it does happen.
Then you will have no trouble at all providing me with some sort of way to prove this happens to this day. Miracles, signs, and wonders were to confirm the word (Mark 16:20 for example).
Where is your confirmation this happens now days?
Also, where is your scriptural evidence that this will continue after the word is completed and confirmed?
Still waiting on you to give me anything other than "just trust me it happens".
And you avoid my question which is what are you doing for the Lord????
My apologies, it was lost upon the heap of belittling statements. I do so sincerely apologize as it was not my intent to ignore that.
The talents I have been given, I speak to people about God and His word, visit the shut-ins when I can, help the behind the scenes things run for our Lords church in the area I attend. For example, cleaning the landscape or inside the building each week, ensure the website and facebook are maintained and in good order, things of that nature. I happily do these things and use my talents as the scripture has told me that it is how a Christian conducts themselves. I love our Lord and Savior and wish to obey His word.
