The Age of Miracles and Revelation in the Church

Introductory Early church experienced earthshaking accomplishments From 40 to 65 years of revelation of NT truth Period of miracles possibly a bit longer Important to understand this period

The Coming and Work of the Holy Spirit Coming promised. Jn. 14:26; Lk. 24:49; Acts 1:8 His work with the apostles. Comforter. Jn. 14:16-17 Guide into truth. Jn. 14:26; 16:12-14 Bear witness. Jn. 15:26-27; Lk. 24:44-49; Acts 1:8 Convict the world. Jn. 16:7-11

The Coming and Work of the Holy Spirit His work with the Christians. Gifts to some by laying on hands “Indwelling” promised to obedient. Acts 2:38; 5:32; Rom. 8:9 Came on Pentecost. Acts 2:1-4

The Age of Miracles in the Church Performed by apostles. Peter & John. Acts 3:1-11; 9:40-41 Paul. Acts 13:9-11; 14:8-10; 16:16-18; 20:8-10 Could impart to others. Cf. Rom. 1:11; 2 Tim. 1:6; I Cor. 12:4-11

The Age of Revelation in the Church H.S. to reveal. Jn. 14:26; 16:13; I Cor. 2:1-13 Both oral and written. Eph. 3:1-5; I Cor. 14:37 Needs for written word: Disciples scattered. Acts 8:1ff Ref. to deal with problems. (Epistles) For future generations. 2 Pet. 1:12-15

The Church Now Governed by the Written Word A perfect law. Jas. 1:25 Wholly adequate, being… Inspired – “given by inspiration” 2 Tim. 3:16-17 Authority – “profitable for doctrine…” Sufficient – “thoroughly equipped”

The Church Now Governed by the Written Word A perfect law. Jas. 1:25 Wholly adequate, being… Finality of the revelation “Once for all delivered” Jude 3 All things needed are given. 2 Pet. 1:3

IN MEN! IN THE BOOK! THE WORD OF GOD ORAL WRITTEN ALL WRITTEN All ORAL Holy Spirit to REVEAL ALL TRUTH Jn. 16:12-14; Eph. 3:1-5; I Cor. 2:6-13 NO REVELATIONS Jude 3 NO MIRACLES Word Confirmed Hb 2:1-4 Can read. Jn. 20:30-31 ORAL MIRACLES to CONFIRM Mk. 16:17-20; Cf. Signs I Cor. 12:12 2 Thes. 2:15; 2 Pet. 3:1-2; I Cor. 13:8-13 WRITTEN ALL WRITTEN Mystery Revealed, Eph. 3:1-7 Grace of God, Appeared, Preached, Written. Tit. 2:11-12; I Pet. 1:10-12; 5:12 Can partake of Divine Nature, 2 Pet. 1:3-4 Complete in Christ by the Word, Col. 2:10; 2 Tim. 3:16-17; Jas. 1:25 All ORAL Acts 20:20-27 Chart adapted from Ferrell Jenkins

Conclusion The word is sufficient for God’s people in all they are to do. Not now in an age of miracles nor of further revelation. His word will judge us finally. Must respect it here.
