I'm going to quote some passages that will describe the sort of experiences a Christian is supposed to have based on the New Testament:
"14 Are they (angels) not all ministering spirits, sent out to render service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation?" Heb. 1:14 (NASB)
"12 For our struggle is not against [e]flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places." Eph. 6:12 (NASB)
"20 And He *said to them, “Because of the littleness of your faith; for truly I say to you, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you." Mt. 17:20 (NASB)
"12 Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these he will do; because I go to the Father." Jn. 14:12 (NASB)
" 6 even as the testimony concerning Christ was confirmed [d]in you, 7 so that you are not lacking in any gift, awaiting eagerly the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ," 1 Cor. 1:6-7 (NASB)
Also, 1 Cor. 12 talks clearly about the "gifts of the Spirit."
All of these passages make it clear that the supernatural is to be a part of the experience of every Christian. In other words, it is to be a normative experience of Christianity. Your thoughts?
