I see the Holy Spirit also upon certain people in the OT! But what I see different in the NT is that it is available to ALL believers...not just certain ones!No, would call that "Rightly dividing the word of God!"
Do you eat pork and lobster? if you say that yes I can, that would be because you divided from the bible that law was not in effect to restrict your dietay eating..
Same way, discerning that the HS operates in a different fashion today among us than in Acts!
The church is still here! THe manifestations of the Holy Spirit was given to the church! I do not see where and for what reason God would take that away from the church! He gave the Holy Spirit and He will never leave us or forsake us! The manifestations are for edification, exhortation and comfort! Why would he take that away?
THey are still here! Yes, there are false out there but that does not disprove the real! The word does not back up your theory of ceasing until WE SEE FACE TO FACE AND KNOW AS WE ARE KNOWN!
