The Friday evening session started with testimonies fro Peter Staines and Veronika Ott about how the Lord had led them into partnership with Apostle John Alley.
John then proceeded to talk about the error of cessationism, the doctrine that the gifts of the Holy Spirit and miracles ceased after the death of the first apostles or the completion of the New Testament.
Biblical errors of cessationism as evidenced in a polemic against NAR
1.Signs and wonders = miracles but see Hebrews 2:4
2. Signs are meant to confirm a message from the Lord. But miracles often come without a message
3. Signs and wonders confirm end times teaching by NAR
3. They assert that people always responded to Jesus’s miracles with faith. False.
4. If NAR miracles are to equal Jesus’s miracles, they should be easy to see.
5. Miracles will be so highly acclaimed leads to public news.
6. Surely the world would know if these miracles happened by NAR people. Countless people get miracles, but they are to meet needs not to be signs. The world is not interested in miracles and tends to ignore or dismiss them.
7. For the time being the NAR people have not changed the world in the way they claim.
