Raising the Dead should be Normal Christianity

Art Thomas 1 Comment December 20, 2019

Should Christians pray for recently deceased people to be raised from the dead? Are such Christians being delusional? Or do they really know what they’re talking about? Honestly, if you ask me, I believe raising the dead should be normal Christianity. Do Christians Still Raise the Dead? The Bible contains plenty of examples of prophets, […]

What Does It Mean to be “Born of Water and the Spirit”?

Art Thomas 0 Comment October 18, 2018

In John 3:5, Jesus said, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.” Naturally, this begs the question: What does it mean to be born of water and the Spirit? For that matter, perhaps you’re wondering, Why does it even matter?! Entering […]

Can Christians Forgive Sins?

Art Thomas 1 Comment September 18, 2018

Jesus gave His followers authority to forgive sins in John 20:23, but does this mean what it seems to mean? Last week I published an article by my friend Jonathan Ammon titled “God Wants to Forgive through You.” Jonathan gave great practical examples of what this can look like in the everyday life of the […]

How to Discern Prophetic Dreams

Art Thomas 1 Comment July 11, 2018

God wants to speak to you through prophetic dreams, but how do you know if the dreams you’re having are from Him? And even then, how do you interpret the meaning of your prophetic dream so that you can act on what God is saying? Prophetic dreams are important. If you remove prophetic dreams from […]

What is the New Apostolic Reformation?

Art Thomas 2 Comments June 11, 2018

What is the New Apostolic Reformation? Why is it such a big deal to so many people? And what threat does the New Apostolic Reformation pose to the Church? I want to offer a balanced response to these three questions and hopefully clear up some of the rhetoric and confusion that’s out there. My primary […]

Who Needs to Have Faith for Healing?

Art Thomas 4 Comments June 9, 2017

Who needs to have faith for healing? Is it the minister? Is it the sick person? Is it some combination of the two? I recently received a great question from a reader: I have heard you say that if someone is prayed for and they do not get healed, that you don’t blame the person being […]

Do Prophets Exist Today?

Art Thomas 3 Comments May 23, 2017

Do prophets exist today? Is the gift of prophecy still in operation? And if the answers to these questions are both “yes,” what does that mean for us today? Last week I wrote an article titled “Identifying False Prophecy.” Then last night I received a comment on that article from someone named Jan who challenged […]

Identifying False Prophecy

Art Thomas 4 Comments May 17, 2017

God still speaks through people. Prophetic gifts are celebrated throughout the New Testament, and Paul even instructs the Church to “eagerly desire gifts of the Spirit, especially prophecy.” (See 1 Corinthians 14:1.) The Greek word used for “eagerly desire” here means to burn with zeal, to strive after, and to actively pursue. Surely believers today […]

Is Healing Past-tense or Present-tense?

Art Thomas 14 Comments July 28, 2016

Everywhere I travel, I run into believers who are convinced that they’re already healed, even though the physical evidence would suggest otherwise. Whereas Isaiah said that by the Messiah’s wounds we “are” healed, these people point out that Peter wrote, “…by His wounds we WERE healed” (1 Peter 2:24). While Isaiah spoke in present-tense terms about a future […]
