Very sad! The author sounds more like a sullen atheist than a Christian. His hermeneutics are incredibly dangerous, and his conclusions speak volumes concerning his clear bias against Charismatic theology. His treatment of the ongoing validity of Spiritual Gifts is embarrassing, and demonstrates an unwillingness to engage in contemporary scholarship. I would love the author to read the work of Sam Storms and Jack Deere rather than creating straw man arguments that no sincere believer actually holds to.
