Against the Tide

Just because one believes the Gifts of the Spirit are for the church today doesn't make one Charismatic. The Charismatic teachings are filled with error and heresy. Satan always counterfeits the True and he certainly has wreaked havoc on the church with the Charismatic movement today.

You or no one can prove to me with Scripture that the Gifts have passed away and are no longer necessary for the perfecting of the body of Christ. It's not there and as I showed above, the verse used by those who would say so, is not based on sound interpretation! Paul instructed the church about the use of the Gifts because carnality had entered into the Corinthian church...well carnality is still alive and well in the body of Christ today and sadly to say, it's alive and well in every denomination. That's why I don't follow man or denomination. I stand on the Word of God alone and the Holy Spirit is my teacher.
