This is part 2 of the Dismantling of the Doctrine of Cessation

In this Presentation I demonstrate the Historical Evidence which completely destroys the Doctrine of Cessation for both camps, namely:

1) Those that believe miracles ceased with the Death of the Apostles

2) Those who believe that when the Bible was completed miracles ceased

I call the Church Father’s to provide their testimony on the subject matter, and leaves no way to escape the verdict.

This single presentation leaves no Death Nail unhammered into the coffin to which Cessation belongs.
