Not necessarily for the natural ones, but more for the miraculous gifts. Some churches believe that these types of gifts have ceased, while others think they can still be used today. A common scripture passage used is 1 Corinthians 13:8 which says “Love never ends. As for the prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away.” This passage clearly states that gifts such as tongues and prophecy will pass away. However, there are other interpretations of this verse. Some believe that verse 12 of chapter eight tells a different story. People who believe that the miraculous gifts have not ceased say that verse 12 speaks of the return of Christ. “But then face to face,” is a saying often used to see God in person. It is an event that has not yet happened, so it is not possible that the miraculous gifts have ceased. Grudem states in his book that he clearly believes that miraculous gifts still exist and will continue to remain with believers and followers of Christ until the second coming. Now this leads to several questions having to do with the roles of churches with these gifts and what it means for the Scriptures if prophecy is still around. Regarding the role of the churches, I believe that there are clear signals for both situations. If the gifts are still present in believers today, then we should use them
