The were for the believers, period. Jesus put no time limitation on it. As long as there are believers, as long as there is a church, those words apply to his believers. Any time-restriction people try to place on those words is simply artificial.

When Jesus comes.
I agree with this.
As long as there are believers we can expect to see those signs of Mark 16.
As long as there are imperfections in the church we can expect to have the gifts of the Spirit.

Will the church cease to exist then?
I accept Mark 16:9-20 as inspired.
At the rapture, the church will be perfected and will no longer need the gifts of the Spirit as spoken of in Romans chapter 12 and 1 Corinthians chapters 12-14 nor the ministry gifts of Epehsians chapter 4.
That's my opinion.

Folks, I will join this discussion again in a few days... unfortunately, my schedule will not allow me to be here for a few days.

Well, maybe we can drag it out a few days. ( I wish I had that good problem of a busy work schedule right now.)






Anybody know anybody that has the gift of healing?

The Lord has used my Dad in this gift.

One lady healed from cancer. He speaks of her, but she was a visitor to his church and I never met the woman. He still speaks of her from time to time.

This happened a couple of years ago.
