Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the cessation of the miraculous gifts (charismata) that accompanied the first Christian communities after the death of the apostles. Focusing on early Christian writings, the book argues against the common belief that these charismata lasted for several centuries after the Apostolic Age. Challenging the idea that these gifts gradually faded, it demonstrates that they ceased abruptly with the apostles, as they were exclusively tied to their mission of establishing the Christian Church. Delving into the origins and functions of these miraculous manifestations, the text explores their multifaceted nature and their significance as credentials of the apostles' authority. Ultimately, the book sheds light on the relationship between miracles and revelation, emphasizing that the completion of divine revelation in Christ marked the end of the age of miracles. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
