Apart from Tongues, 1 Corinthians 14 could describe an "on fire" Cessationist church during Bible Study

If you did, you would have produced the proof long ago.
The proof we receive is in us and it not something to capture and send .
Yes, but you don't have it.
I have participated in the "proof" as you call it , the Gifts of the Holy Spirit . But you can not see my participation .

Dear Heavenly Father I pray for you to send proof of the Gifts of the Holy Spirit in this present time to my brother Alfred Persson , let it be something he can not deny . In Jesus Christ's name we pray . Amen .

Self-delusion is all I see manifest in Christendom today, not true Christian signs and wonders.

God has already sent me proof about that, its in scripture for all to see:

Jesus Christ my LORD warned all "do not be deceived by false prophets" who do Christian-like signs and wonders:

15 "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.
16 "You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles?
17 "Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.
18 "A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit.
19 "Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
20 "Therefore by their fruits you will know them.
21 "Not everyone who says to Me,`Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
22 "Many will say to Me in that day,`Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?'
23 "And then I will declare to them,`I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'
(Matt. 7:15-23 NKJ)

Therefore, "Christian-like" isn't good enough.

If the same Christian signs and wonders appearing in the New Testament, happened today...it would be in the news 24/7 just like it was in the media of the 1st century, causing people from all surrounding cities to see for themselves:


12 And through the hands of the apostles many signs and wonders were done among the people. And they were all with one accord in Solomon's Porch.
13 Yet none of the rest dared join them, but the people esteemed them highly.
14 And believers were increasingly added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women,
15 so that they brought the sick out into the streets and laid them on beds and couches, that at least the shadow of Peter passing by might fall on some of them.
16 Also a multitude gathered from the surrounding cities to Jerusalem, bringing sick people and those who were tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all healed. (Acts 5:12-16 NKJ)
