Episode #21 - The Heresy of Cessationism 10 (The Godfather)
In Episode 10 of the "The Heresy of Cessationism" series, Daniel delves deep into the examination of cessationism, dissecting arguments from theologians like Warfield. By scrutinizing the inconsistency in assessing biblical miracles versus contemporary testimonies, Kolenda challenges the rational basis of cessationist beliefs. He explores the philosophical underpinnings of David Hume's skepticism and advocates for a theological approach over a rationalist one. Ultimately, Kolenda asserts the unbiblical nature of modern cessationism, urging listeners to adopt a more scripturally grounded perspective.

Episode #18 - The Heresy of Cessationism - 7 (Miracle Workers)
In this episode of Off The Record, Daniel delves into the intriguing theological debate surrounding the frequency of miracles in the Bible. The spotlight is on Cessationism, a belief that asserts miracles, particularly the charismatic gifts of the Holy Spirit, are rare or have ceased altogether. Contrary to this perspective, Kolenda takes a closer look at the Bible, arguing that miracles are woven into its narrative fabric, appearing on almost every page.
He meticulously highlights passages from both the Old and New Testaments, illustrating the prevalence of divine interventions and supernatural occurrences. Exploring all the different stories of miraculous healings, supernatural transformations, and celestial interventions, Kolenda builds a compelling case that miracles are not confined to a particular era but are rather an integral part of the biblical narrative.

Episode #14 - The Heresy of Cessationism 3 (Has Prophecy Ceased?)
In this episode of Off The Record, Daniel asks the question: Has the gift of prophecy ceased? He examines the differences between Old Testament and New Testament prophecy, highlighting that New Testament prophecy serves a different purpose and does not hold the same consequences as its Old Testament counterpart. He argues that cessationism's strict standards do not align with the nuanced understanding of prophecy presented in the Bible. He also challenges the idea that all prophetic activity ceased after the apostolic age, emphasizing the ongoing importance of God's guidance and revelation in the lives of believers.To view the previous parts of this series about "The Heresy of Cessationism" visit:The Heresy of Cessationism 1 (The Scriptures)https://youtube.com/watch?v=M8fr1ovkPeAThe Heresy of Cessationism 2 (A Cascade of Lies) https://youtu.be/M8fr1ovkPeAScriptures referenced in the text are as follows:Deuteronomy 18 - This chapter sets guidelines for prophetic standards in the Old Testament.1 Corinthians 14 - Particularly verses 29 and 31, which address the testing and order of prophecy within the church.Numbers 11 - Refers to the passage where Moses expressed his desire that all of God's people were prophets.Acts 21:11 - The passage where Agabus prophesies about Paul's future.Acts 10:19, 15:28, 16:7 - Various passages from the book of Acts that illustrate examples of divine guidance and direction.Acts 2:17-18 - The prophecy of Joel about the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, quoted by Peter in Acts, which promises sons and daughters prophesying and people seeing visions.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Episode #13 - The Heresy of Cessationism - Part 2 (A Cascade of Lies)
In this episode of OFF THE RECORD, Daniel Kolenda delves into the "Cascade Argument," a common assertion made by cessationists arguing that the gifts of the Spirit have ceased, even without explicit biblical evidence. Cessationists like Samuel Waldron and Tom Pennington make this argument, implying that the absence of apostleship justifies a broader discontinuation of gifts like prophecy and tongues. Daniel highlights the dangerous precedent of making such assumptions without strong biblical support. He counters this interpretation by referencing passages where the Apostle Paul encourages the exercise of spiritual gifts, like prophecy, in the Corinthian church. Daniel addresses another cessationist argument, that the foundation of apostles and prophets was laid once and does not need to be reestablished. He asserts that the scriptures Cessationists often site are discussing different things and that the foundational apostles and prophets are not the same as contemporary ministry gifts, allowing for the latter to continue in the church.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Episode #12 - The Heresy of Cessationism - Part 1 (The Bible is Continuationist)
Join Daniel Kolenda in this insightful episode of OFF THE RECORD, where he delves into a controversial theological discourse that has long fueled debate within Christianity: Cessationism versus Continuationism. In this enlightening discussion, Daniel navigates the heart of the matter, unraveling the theological distinctions that set these two perspectives apart. He also explores the pivotal questions surrounding the enduring presence of spiritual gifts like prophecy and speaking in tongues in today's church. Cessationism contends that the miraculous gifts of the Holy Spirit have ceased, a belief that sharply contrasts with the Continuationist viewpoint, which asserts that these spiritual gifts remain accessible to Christians today. Daniel raises questions about the selectivity inherent in Cessationism – a stance that accepts certain spiritual gifts while discarding others. He suggests this selectivity may stem from a reluctance to align with the more charismatic aspects of the faith. His examination extends to the theological foundation of Cessationism, revealing the absence of explicit biblical support for its tenets, while underscoring scriptures that affirm the ongoing significance and relevance of spiritual gifts. This episode is for anyone looking to dive deeper into this theological debate, offering valuable insights to listeners seeking to engage with the nuances of this enduring discussion within the Christian faith.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
