On Cessationism

I wrote awhile back that I don't think I'll ever become a cessationist. Perhaps I don't know what cessationism is. Vern Poythress' work, Modern Spiritual Gifts as Analogous to Apostolic Gifts... is helpful--perhaps cessationism only means that the canon is closed, and that when a man speaks, he is not absolutely authoritative as were the apostles--because he (and we) are fallible.

If there is room for miraculous gifts of healing, I would embrace that--I think the Bible is done being written. I wonder if that makes me a cessationist?

hmm. Very strange.
