    About this audiobook

    What are the spiritual gifts? Do all Christians have them? Have the miraculous gifts ceased? The topic of spiritual gifts is often a point of contention among Christians. In Spiritual Gifts: What They Are and Why They Matter, Dr. Thomas R. Schreiner, a leading New Testament scholar, answers these questions. Schreiner shares his personal experience related to spiritual gifts, but more importantly, he unpacks what the Bible has to say about them. In doing so, he brings a spirit of humility and charity, reminding us that though spiritual gifts are important, we can have unity in Christ even where we disagree.

      THE WAR FOR OUR YOUTH Why creation still matters

      Dec 30, 2019

      We’re being told by public education systems, universities, media, some parents, and unfortunately many church leaders, that parts of the Bible are not relevant anymore and that we need to reinvent God’s word. So, with this situation, in order to und

    • 4/5
      Schreiner offers a helpful and nuanced cessationist position on the spiritual gifts. He argues that because the church is built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, we should not expect such foundational gifts today. However, there are many other gifts that the Spirit gives to mark out his work of new creation in our midst.
    • 5/5
      It presents a clear, well argued case for nuanced cessation. I found it very helpful.
    • 5/5
      Excelente libro, expuso su punto con amor y respeto. Coincido.
    • 5/5
      A generous, collegial yet robust apologetic for cessationism. Quite convincing.
    • 4/5
      Well written book with very well thought out points. I felt like Schreiner was sharing his journey to what he believes with us and not being argumentative or pushy. This would be a great book for small groups to read and discuss. I loved how he laid out his point of view with research, facts and loads of scripture. I recommend this book to anyone learning about spiritual gifts and how they affect us today.
