00:02 - Everybody has the gift of miraculous healing.
00:06 Surely all he needs to do is to prove it.
00:11 But let's face it, we've been battling with COVID
00:16 and the so-called miracle workers
00:19 went into hiding together with us.
00:22 - Cessationism is the view that certain miraculous gifts
00:27 that stood as signs of an apostle,
00:30 speaking in tongues, healing, prophecies,
00:33 interpretation of tongues, gifts like that,
00:36 ceased with the apostles.
00:38 - Cessationism has fallen out of favor
00:40 because commitment to the authority of scripture
00:42 has fallen out of favor.
00:44 - When you turn on Christian TV,
00:48 you don't see expositors of scripture,
00:50 John MacArthur or Steve Lawson.
00:53 You see Joel Osteen, Joseph Prince, Kenneth Copeland,
00:55 Benny Hinn, Joyce Meyer, Paula White.
00:57 That's who you see because that's the mainstream.
01:01 - Speaking in tongues.
01:02 - You're gonna speak out of your spirit.
01:05 Don't worry about what it sounds like.
01:07 (speaking in tongues)
01:09 - Our understanding of speaking in tongues
01:12 must be guided by the scriptures, not our feelings.
01:15 - They were known languages
01:17 that were capable of interpretation
01:19 and not everybody speaks in tongues.
01:21 - If God speaks, it must be infallible,
01:24 inerrant and authoritative.
01:25 - And the Lord said to me, "Will you howl for me?"
01:29 I said, "Don't ask me to do that, Lord."
01:32 (howling)
01:36 - There's no longer the need for the gift of prophecy
01:42 speaking forth divine revelation from God.
01:46 - We have now the whole counsel of God.
01:50 This word is the final word.
01:54 (dramatic music)
01:56 - The apostolic gifts have gone.
01:57 They were never intended for our generation.
02:00 We have everything that we need from the Holy Spirit today.
02:04 - It's hard to get anyone who's gone through that
02:07 to come back and take a serious look at faith in Christ
02:11 focused on the gospel rather than focused on
02:14 these phony miracles.
