Spiritual gifts are something every believer is given when they receive the gift of salvation. Just as the gift of salvation is by grace through faith , so are the spiritual gifts.
Paul emphasizes the varieties of gifts within the unity of God. The gifts are described as gifts, services, and activities but as Paul says, though the gifts vary, they each have the same purpose: the common good. And, though the gifts vary, they are each given as God through his Spirit desires.
Why are we given spiritual gifts ? These gifts are never for our own benefit or to bring glory, reward, or esteem to ourselves. They are for "equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the building up of the body of Christ" (Ephesians 4:12). Join us as Minister and Teacher Audrey Jackson facilitates Introduction into Spiritual Gifts of The Holy Spirit.
Imagine how much peace and joy we would have if we allowed ourselves to function as God created us to be! Imagine how many we could teach about Jesus Christ and lead to the throne if we each operated in our gifts to bless and build up the body of Christ!!
