Many Christians follow beliefs they were told, but which they never personally investigated. Both Protestants and Catholics in the Cessationist camp believe Baptism of the Holy Spirit and the 9 Holy Spirit gifts including prophecy and tongues have stopped and are no longer relevant.
CEASED? addresses core Cessationist arguments through extensive use of scriptures and questions - not answers - to present evidence, often from a different perspective than found in prior Cessationist debates and articles.
CEASED? examines basics including 4 baptisms and 3 unique Holy Spirit experiences: the 'with' [para in the Greek] as Holy Spirit draws a person to Christ; the 'in' [en] where Holy Spirit comes in a person when born again; and the 'upon' [epi] where a believer is Baptized in the Holy Spirit and Holy Spirit comes upon a believer to give power to witness for Jesus (Acts 1:8).
Protestants and Catholics have conflicting views on many issues including water baptism, Baptism of the Holy Spirit, Communion, traditions and the roles, if any, of the Pope and Mary. CEASED? reviews these issues and more, from a unique perspective, and provides insight on whether or not these and other gaps are significant enough to prevent Protestants and Catholics from worshiping and evangelizing together.
