I just finished watching a video where a Christian apologist who claims to uphold sola scriptura was arguing cessation of the supernatural gifts of the Holy Spirit – which he deemed “Apostolic” – while saying that the “normative” gifts – teaching, administration etc. – are continuing. The funny thing is he did not/couldn’t support his argument by scripture just by his own lack of experience of the supernatural gifts. Where is this division of Apostolic versus normative gifts found in scripture? Another argument is that the canon is closed so there is no need for the supernatural gifts. Where is that in scripture? Who closed the canon? Which canon? The Protestant canon? Roman Catholic canon? Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo canon?
