Does anything cease?
 * BTW, Nathan doesn't believe in ceassationsim.
 * Zech 13:2-3 removing the false prophets from the land. Could be interpreted as removing all prophecy.
 * Rev 22:18 do not add to this book. Somehow cessationists say that this means that the gifts ended.
 * Miraculous gifts certainly happened in the early days in Acts. E.g. Peters hankerchiefs.
 * Wouldn't Paul have warned in 1 Cor that the gifts would cease?
 * 1 Cor 13:8 love never fails, where there are prophecies, they will cease. This passage is valid in that prophecies will cease, but it's talking about end times, not now or when Rev was finished.

When
 * Most cessationists claim, I think, that the miraculous ended when Revelation was finished being written.

What gifts
 * I don't know if the cessatinists think that some gifts are still around.
 * Certainly I would think that the Rom 12 gifts like administration are still around.
