We have all seen or heard of those evangelists who promise those in the audience that if they just have enough “faith” and come forward to have hands laid upon them they will be “healed”. It is so emotionally charged, hyped, and over-the-top showmanship that folks forget, it is all about God and not about … More Thursday Thoughts- “Cessationism” – 10/03/2024
