Well if I end up in hell over what I believe about the sign gifts having ceased, I'm sure I'll be in good company. I guess I'll be there with Charles Spurgeon, the prince of preachers, as many have called him. God sure did a great work through Spurgeon, bringing countless people to believe in the gospel through his preaching. I've learned a lot through Spurgeon myself.

"Charles Spurgeon was a cessationist. He regarded the charismata as apostolic signs—unique gifts for a unique era. He taught (as did virtually every evangelical preacher of his era) that the miraculous gifts described in Acts and 1 Corinthians (including the ability to command physical healing or speak in tongues) ceased before the end of the apostolic era."
Phil Johnson

And I'll be there with Jonathan Edwards:

Since the canon of the Scripture has been completed, and the Christian Church fully founded and established, these extraordinary gifts have ceased. —Jonathan Edwards
