Q&A#11 What Should We Make of the Sign Gifts?
July 16, 2018
Alastair Roberts
Today's Question: What is your view of the miraculous gifts (like prophecy and the gifts of tongues) in the New Testament period? Did these discontinue with the closing of the Scriptural Canon or, maybe, they took on a new form after this? And how did the Scriptures relate to the work of the prophets in the New Testament?
