Dear viewer: I am posting this article and videos below because for centuries there have been many Christians from mainline Protestant Denominations that have been peddling a man made doctrine known as cessasionism. This was a doctrine that was created by John Calvin during the Reformation Age. Simply put, many of these Christians believe that the gifts of the Holy Spirit together with signs, wonders, and miracles ceased to operate when the last Apostle John died and the Sacred Text(Bible) was finally canonized. For more details go to the following link:
THE ORIGINS OF CESSATIONISM
Below I am sharing actual 21st century video footage as well as scriptural evidence refuting this false heretical doctrine.
REMEMBER: THAT YAHWEH THE SELF EXISTING ONE IS THE LORD GOD THE KING OF THE UNIVERSE. AND HE IS THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY AND FOREVER AMEN AND GLORY BE TO HIS HOLY MAJESTIC NAME!
What is the Shekinah glory of God?
2/13/2017
Shekinah means "dwelling," or "one who
dwells." So, the Shekinah glory of God would refer to the personal
presence of God. The word Shekinah does not occur in the Old or New
Testaments in the original languages. However, it entered Christian
theology as a term via the targums and rabbinic literature after the Old
Testament was completed and before the New Testament period began. It
was used to describe the very presence of God. Therefore, it was used
by rabbis in reference to the Lord's presence among his people (Exodus 19:16-18; 25:8; 40:34-38; 1 Kings 6:13). The rabbis used the term in reference to the glory of God filling the temple (2 Chronicles 7:1), his presence at the cloud (Exodus 14:19; 1 Kings 8:10–13), and his dwelling in the mountain ( Psalm 68:16-18; 74:2; Isaiah 8:18; Joel 3:17). Another way of describing it would be to use the term "glory of God" since the phrase is used to describe his presence (Psalm 19:1; Ezekiel 43:2; Luke 2:9; Acts 7:55).
Phrases used in the Bible that fall under the Shekinah are- Cloud, (Exodus 34:5; 40:34-38; Leviticus 16:2; Numbers 11:25; 14:14; 16:42 )
- Cloud of the Lord, (Exodus 40:38; Numbers 9:15; 1 Kings 8:10–11)
- Glory of God, (Exodus 16:10; Ezekiel 43:2; Luke 2:9; Acts 7:55)
- Glory of the Lord, (Exodus 24:15–16; 1 Kings 8:11; Ezekiel 1:28; Luke 2:9)
- Pillar of Cloud, (Exodus 13:21-22; 14:19–20; Numbers 12:5)
- Presence of the Lord, (Genesis 3:8; Leviticus 10:2; Numbers 16:7; Judges 5:5; Psalm 97:5)
- Radiance, (Habakkuk 3:4)
- Thick cloud (Exodus 19:9, 16; Exodus 20:21)
In the New Testament, the manifestation of God, the manifestation of his presence, occurs in the person of Jesus. Jesus is the Word who became flesh (John 1:1, 14). In him, all the fullness of deity dwells in bodily form (Colossians 2:9). He is called "the radiance of his glory and the exact representation of his nature," (Hebrews 1:3). Therefore, to see Jesus was in effect, to see God (John 14:9). Jesus is the Shekinah presence of God.
