Referring to the question, “Were not the miracles and gifts of the Spirit only for the apostolic church?” Andrew Murray replied, Basing my views on scripture, I do not believe that miracles and the other gifts of the Spirit were limited to the time of the primitive Church, nor that their object was to establish the foundation of Christianity and then disappear by God’s withdrawal of them. . . . The entire scriptures declare that these graces will be granted according to the measure of the Spirit and of faith.12
