Prophecy & Tongues: Dead or Alive? 🔥 We’re challenging cessationism & making the case for supernatural power in the church today!
Did miraculous gifts really stop with the apostles? This week on Remnant Radio, Joshua Lewis, Michael Rowntree, and Michael Miller are diving into the Straight Truth Podcast’s case for cessationism and pushing back as continuationists. We’ll review Dr. Richard Caldwell’s arguments about “sign gifts” and the closing of the New Testament canon, offering a biblical defense of the Holy Spirit’s ongoing power. Discover why we believe prophecy, tongues, and healing are still vital for Christian theology, spiritual warfare, and building up the church.

Hey Guys, Josh Lewis here. Have you ever wondered if the miraculous gifts of the Holy Spirit—like prophecy, healing, and tongues—really stopped after the apostles? Cessationists claim they vanished throughout church history, but that's a myth. In Remnant Radio’s new ebook, History of Spiritual Gifts: The Myth of Cessationism, I dive into church history to reveal the active use of spiritual gifts by early church fathers
