Within the broader Biblical Knowledge Graph, this connects directly to Spiritual Gifts (Charismata) & Ministry in the Early Church—The existence and divine distribution of spiritual gifts for building the Church is biblical-primary ( Rom 12 , 1 Cor 12 -14, Eph 4 ). However, whether miraculous sign gifts (tongues, prophecy, apostolic miracles) ceased with the apostolic age (Cessationism) or continue today (Continuationism) is a primary scholarly debate.
