Where do you think it says that???
Where does it say anything close to that???

This is why our faith must be doctrinally rooted in scripture, not our imagination.
Notice you did not reply to how you can answer anyone who goes outside of scripture, except to"make it up as you go"
Why would God sending dreams and visions to his own elect in muslim nations in order to lead them to jesus be outside scripture?

You have not answered this at all....


scriptures tells us that the scriptures are now completed, and that God is no longer sending forth any additional revelations to us, but also states that God can confirm the message of the Lord Jesus as being true by signs and wonders in where the message is new and being challenged as not being true, would that not mean Islam?
Does God do any healings today at all among the redeemed then?

I guess that means that you win the argument. L8r.
Hello Sabertooth,
I do not think there is a debate, or argument.
Scripture informs us as to the Great and wonderful works of God.
Others give personal stories, or emotional accounts..
I am grounded in scripture as millions have been.
No need to win or lose anything, just to be faithful.

I never stated God sending forth any additional doctrines or messages to us today, but that is seperate from can God send visions and dreams to witness among Muslims today!

There have been reports about this, and it is probably true.

"...Finally, there was the matter of dreams. Though dreams have fallen into disrepute in the West, they retain their currency in the House of Islam. A common phrase found in many testimonies gathered from West Africa to East Asia began with the words, "I had a dream...." Like the wind itself, these dreams came as invisible harbingers of change. For many, they recall the words of Jesus to a nighttime seeker, "The wind blows where it pleases, and you hear its sound, but you don't know where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit" (John 3:8.)..."

This is not directly related to the gifts of the Spirit, but Christ reaching out to Muslims directly. According to this article, there is a significant amount of conversion from Islam to Christianity happening today.

A vision or a dream has a message in it.
If the message comes from God it is new revelation

you still have not answered the question you were asked.When you answer that we can move on.
post222,post 223
Where does it state in the Bible that God will no longer use those things to confirm the Gospel and Lord Jesus in areas never been evangelism as of yet until now?
What about the missionaries that have reported that when they got to their new lands, there were some who came forward saying that they heard someone telling them to prepare to listen to those coming to them with Jesus and the message now?

post222,post 223.....you offer no scripture. just imaginations, speculations like these people;

Here are a few of thousands of claims found on youtube and other places.

Are they true?

How can you tell if they are true or false?

These people claimed they had these experiences, were they truthful or lying?

On What basis can you with your view as expressed here in the last few days, comment one way or another?

How can you deny their experiences?

If they lived in Muslim lands, then they would be true?

Roman Catholics who see the virgin mary on a piece of toast, You cannot question their experience?

Romans 10:17 Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.

Also, creation is evidence for God, so much so people are without excuse for not knowing God.

I agree with you , but my understanding is that what God seems to be sending Muslims is not the actual Gospel, but more like listen to the message and about Jesus when it cow comes to them!
