How should the Christian assess the contemporary claims about spiritual gifts? In Signs of the Apostles Walter Chantry describes the worldwide spread of the charismatic movement and discusses its significance. He believes God is still working in the world today. But it is his conviction that miraculous powers are no longer placed in the hands of individual men and women. Every recorded instance of the reception of miraculous power in the New Testament Church occurred through the ministry of an Apostle. Now that the canon of Scripture is complete, the pursuit of all the spiritual gifts of the apostolic age can only proceed upon the basis of a failure to recognize the sufficiency and finality of the Bible. This short work is written with clarity and vigour. It carefully distinguished some kinds of charismatically-inclined Christians from others. It poses questions with which every Church member is faced. Chantry’s answers tally with those of the greatest leaders of the Church during the Christian centuries. From Psalm 85 he outlines the true character of revival, and closes the book with material drawn from the Great Awakening of the 18th century.

‘This book is a short, concise defense of the cessation of the sign gifts of the Holy Spirit. In particular, it's a rebuttal to the notion of a second-blessing experience of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues. Chantry emphasizes the importance of basing one's life upon the objective truth of God's word, rather than the subjective perception of one's personal experience. While this title is not comprehensive in nature and leaves many important themes unaddressed, it's a very helpful book on the legitimate role of the Holy Spirit in a believer's life. I recommend it highly.’ Dr. David R. Bess
