There's so many I don't know where to begin, nor would I remember at all times. I can assure you if you google Augustine and the sign gifts, you can find out for yourself.

I can certainly do your work for you if you want. If you really want. I suspect you are too lazy to do the reading and studying yourself, though. Here's the first thing that came up when I googled it:- Augustine on the cessation of sign gifts | Immoderate (wordpress.com) If that isn't enough, let me know.

When you make claims the burden of proof falls on you, its lazy when you make claims and not back it up, but thanks for finally providing a link. Do you have others "Church Fathers" that make this claim, you mentioned several. --------- Augustine lived late 3rd and 4th century. He introduced a lot of catholic dogma into the church. I would say he is well known as a catholic church father, but not an authoritative church father. He believed and taught about Purgatory, Praying for the Dead, Believed in the Authority of the Catholic church, Sacraments and Penances for Sin, Believed in the Perpetual Virginity of Mary, Mary was sinless, etc.... https://www.catholicfidelity.com/st-augustine-and-catholic-beliefs/ I would take anything he taught with a gain of salt filtered trough the truth of scriptures.

Augustine is considered to be an early church father. Are you making the claim that he wasn't one? Evidence please. Most of the early church fathers said many things that were wrong. You won't find evidence to the contrary that the later church had tongues and prophecy as sign gifts until the year 1900. I can back up everything I say with text citations, internet evidences, books and so on. You were very quick to jump on me about claims requiring proof. Now, I would appreciate it if you could give us all evidence for tongues and prophecy in the middle ages. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's some more for you - pneumatology - Did any early Church Fathers record the event of the ceasing of spiritual gifts? - Christianity Stack Exchange We could go on and on but it would largely be a waste of time. You asked for Church fathers on the decline of tongues and prophesy and I have already given enough evidence. The burden of proof is not on me because there is no debate.

Catholics hold him to be a church father, because of some of the catholic claims made? Catholic bishops are well know for doctored/forged writings as well. Do you also agree with his stance on Purgatory, Praying for the Dead, Sinless Mary, Perpetual Virginity of Mary, if you do you will probably agree with his stance on cessation of gifts as well.

No I don't agree with Catholicism because I am not a Catholic. But you could have just asked me that first in a nice friendly way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
