Cessationism is "the belief that the miraculous gifts such as healing, tongues, prophetic revelation, and supernatural knowledge pertained to the apostolic era only, served a purpose that was unique to the era before the New Testament was complete, and passed from use before the canon of Scripture was closed." [1] It is contrasted with continuationism, which is "the assumption that the miraculous gifts are normative and have continued in uninterrupted operation since Pentecost." [2]
