“Too Much Charisma”

Dear Treading Carefully,
The charismatic church teaches that they can perform miracles and that they receive new prophecies and direction from God apart from the Bible. This is wrong. We should never add or subtract from God's Word (Rev 22:18-19), and that is exactly what the charismatic movement does. The Bible teaches that the days of miracles, speaking in tongues, etc. have ceased (read "Three Cheers For Miracles" for more details). The charismatic movement deceives people for money, power, and prestige... that is dangerous and sinful.
