Gifts Without Repentance What are the gifts without repentance in Romans 11:29? In an attempt to find passages that support an ongoing charismata, i.e. spiritual gifts in operation beyond 70AD, Romans 11:17 is cited to show that God would never end spiritual gifts until we arrived in heaven.  However, the statement has to be taken in context. It appears to be a reference to Numbers 23:19-20: God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will  He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it goood? ...

One cannot properly study the subject of eschatology without considering the role and mission of the Holy Spirit. We refer to this as the eschatological mission of the Spirit. Our question, “Eschatology, Did the Holy Spirit Complete His Mission?, sums up the sphere and relationship of the Spirit’s mission.

Beginning with the Old Covenant Scriptures we find a brief survey of the Spirit’s role in eschatology. The New Testament expands that role, placing all end times and fulfillment of Bible prophecy within the scope of the Holy Spirit. Ezekiel 36:26–27 In the ...
