Description
Did the gift of tongues cease in the first centuries of the church or does God intend it to be part of the church today? What about the gifts of prophecy, healings, and miracles? The debate about the so-called charismatic gifts of the Spirit has divided the church for over a century now, and it is a major part of theological distinction today. Many claimed to be have hurt by the teaching that these gifts continue. Many claim to have been healed by them, both body and spirit.
Join these four speakers as they debate this important issue in an irenic and informative series. Two of the speakers (Michael and Tim) are not charismatic, while two are committed charismatics (Sam and J. J.). Michael describes himself as a “want-to-be-charismatic” and Tim is a more committed cessationist (believing the gifts have ceased). Misconceptions of both charismatics and cessationists will be corrected while a persuasive case will be made for both positions. You do not want to miss the fireworks and man-hugs you will find during these lessons.
