Is Prophesy for Today? A Biblical Case for Continuing Prophecy. Prophecy is one of the most debated gifts in the church today. Some claim that prophecy ended with the apostles, while others insist it continues in full force. Yet the real question is not what traditions say, but what Scripture itself teaches. The Bible not only affirms prophecy in the New Testament church but also instructs believers how to discern and test it.

Have the Gifts Ceased? A Biblical and Historical Case for Their Continuance. The debate over spiritual gifts is not new. For centuries, some Christians have argued that miraculous gifts—prophecy, tongues, healing—ceased after the age of the apostles. This view, called Cessationism, is still held by several denominations today. Others, known as Continuationists, believe the gifts remain active until Christ returns.

Few topics have been more misunderstood or more emotionally charged in the Christian world than healing. For some, healing is a central part of faith, with bold claims and extravagant expectations. For others, it’s dismissed as a relic of the apostolic age.

One of the most divisive issues in the modern Church isn’t over salvation or the gospel—but over spiritual gifts. Some Christians say that tongues, prophecy, and healing ceased with the apostles. Others insist they’re still fully active.
