What happened to Jesus’ church?

[jiggyfly]

John, to say that the Holy Spirit aids people by giving them what they need for a specific ministry to a specific person at a specific time has nothing to do with the perfect word of God coming. The bible is our basis from which we form understanding. It is what the Holy Spirit brings to mind when needed.

May the Lord bless you and keep you till the day of Christ,

Which bible do you consider perfect?

Which bible do you consider perfect?

The autographs. That said, God has used Hebrew, Aramaic, the Septuagint, 5 Greek Manuscripts of the new testament and a KJV to aid me in understanding what he has said. The KJV is a good translation, not perfect but well merited for understanding the basic tenants of the Christian Religion.

People usually ask a question like this because they are looking for a place to trip you up in your words. May I ask what your honest motive was for asking?

In Christ,

Gary

I read my Bible line by line, when it says Spiritual Gifts are given by the Holy Spirit, that is what it says.
What has Derek Prince got to do with the scriptures?
You have lost me completely, I do not understand your logic.

I certainly am sorry for your confusion.

Yes, the spiritual gifts in 1 Cor 12 are given by the Holy Spirit:
(1) given once for all time, never to be taken back?
or
(2) given whenever required to be used by God through a person.

It is just Derek Prince's opinion ... through much experience for sure
(and/or through revelation?) that it is (2).
