Thank you for pointing out this term to me, I had no idea that people doubted that God could act today as He did in days of old.
I think one of the reasons I have such little respect for so much Cessessationist hogwash is . . .
it insultingly to God pretends that He essentially rolled up the sidewalk and went home leaving us more or less at satan’s mercy without Holy Spirit’s power.
What an outrageous idea!
It will also explain the reaction of some to the debate on certain christian subjects. Some I believe really believe this stuff especially when they quote from this cessationast ilk( like John Macarthur or James White both anti charismatic and catholic).
“I had no idea that people doubted that God could act today as He did in days of old”
That’s an inaccurate characterization of Cessationism.
More accurately- Cessationists believe that it is a “good and necessary inference” from Scripture.
It’s not much different than our Dispensational FRiends believing that God is acting today according to a different plan than earlier epochs.
