Few questions stir as much discussion within churches as whether the “miraculous gifts”—such as prophecy, healing, and tongues—continue today or not. Many believers hold strong convictions either for cessationism (the view that some gifts ceased with the apostolic age) or continuationism (the view that such gifts continue).

I prefer to have a childlike faith and leave the deep thinking to others” However, if you have a thought about God (whichContinue reading “The Impact of Theology: Enhance Your Understanding”
