Peterism and Amillenialism, in whatever form that they come are heresies of the worst kind. The God of Israel who promised faithfulness to an ethnic people and a geographical land for a 1,000 generations is certainly not in the business of changing His mind.
To say that the gifts have somehow expired is to proclaim a lie and to exalt the written word above the Holy Spirit.
The pre-trib rapture is often taught alongside this cessationism and they do go hand in glove, but at least there are some who stay away from cessationism even while teaching the totally unbiblical pre-trib nonsense.
Messiah's community will be under severe persecution in the end times. They will need unusual discernment, as a gift of the Spirit. They will need prophecy to determine the proper direction. They will need supernatural hospitality, when it would be easier to just shut out the Jew and those fleeing the wrath of the anti-Christ.
Each of the gifts will be needed. There will be no more hiding people behind a book shelf, the technology that is out there at this time is scary in its accuracy and what it can reveal.
We will be put in a place of 100% weakness where we rely 100% on the Spirit and the gifts of God. Maranatha!
