To cease or not to cease:
Spiritual gifts today?
by
Book Cover & Preview Text
Many have had traumatic experiences in zealous church/house-group gatherings that indelibly imprinted them for life. Traumatized 'sheep' have found a safe haven and a sympathetic ear in equally zealous heresy hunters, who see their life’s mission in attacking and criticizing (some of it justified) people who are sincerely trying to fulfill the great commission and provide spiritual help. It is my intention that this book will help both the ‘traumatized’ and ‘critics’ see, that what has been misused and misrepresented, is in many instances, a sincere desire to cultivate normal New Testament Christianity.

About the Book
Miracles, signs and wonders happen today! Countless people the world over testify to God’s miraculous power and intervention in their lives. While personal testimony is inspiring to many, for others, it’s simply not sufficient. Cessationism says that the supernatural gifts of the Spirit ceased when the New Testament was complete; this is a common belief held by many clergy and laity alike. This book challenges that misconception and seeks to scripturally demonstrate that these supernatural gifts have not and will not cease until Christ returns.
