The Manifestation Gifts Part 1

Perhaps the most misunderstood and in some cases abused of all the spiritual gifts are the manifestation gifts. The majority of believers fall into two distinct groups regarding the operation of these gifts. The first view, which we will focus on today, sees these gifts as having ceased. They support this view using 1 Corinthians 13:8-10, which states, “Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part. 10 But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.” They interpret “that which is perfect” to be the completed Bible thus making the manifestation gifts no longer necessary.
