Last week John Truitt explained why he believes the gifts of the spirit are still available for Christians to experience. Today, Greg Deuble pulls on his own biblical research and personal experience to present an opposing case. What's fascinating about Deuble is that he believes in God's miraculous activity in the world today. However, he doesn't believe that speaking in tongues (glossalalia) is genuinely available anymore. Rather, based on his reading of 1 Corinthians 14.21-22, he makes the case that the purpose for tongues ceased the moment Gentiles destroyed Jerusalem, its temple, its people and dispersed them.
