Spiritual Gifts

"As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God." 1 Peter 4:10

It is the responsibility of each Christian to help one another, to use our gifts, talents, and abilities for the benefit of others. God has given each of us a gift to be used within the body of Christ. We are intended to be channels through whom blessings can flow to others.

We are to use wisely the many blessing and undeserved favor of God. We are uniquely created and gifted to fulfill a purpose within the church.

The spiritual gifts are wisdom, knowledge, faith, healing, miracles, prophecy, discernment, speaking in tongues, and interpretation of tongues. Each Christian has within them The Holy Spirit and has been given at least one spiritual gift. (1 Corinthians 12 thru 14)

The issue is not do you have a gift, because you do. The issue is how you are using your gift.
