The underlying word suggests 'complete', and points to quantity, rather than the quality.......
When 'the PERFECT(complete) Law of Liberty' is here, these 'partial' things will cease..........
HEB 9 the way into the Holy Place is hindered as long as the tabernacle is standing..........
We have the perfect Law of Liberty, the gifts are no longer needed.......
What ever the gifts provide, if they continue, is either more than Scripture, Less than Scripture, or the same as Scripture........ whichever, they are no longer needed....
Paul says 'we have been given everything pertaining to life and Godliness', in the first century... but the temple was still a hindrance in some fashion....
Christians are indeed the Temple of GOD, and HE with the Spirit dwells in us.........
But, I have yet to meet a man that has or possesses the miraculous gifts of the Spirit....... though several have claimed to.
...Faith without hearing
...Knowledge without study
...and any of the other miraculous gifts
