Hello Ladies and Gentlemen l, peace be with you all
Many are those that goes to church and yet find it difficult to identify and use their spiritual gifts, when we read the book of 1 Corinthians 12:1-11, there are things any parishioner must take care of;
The Spiritual gift of God are real and are been given to believers for a special purpose to help build his church.
Different gifts are given for different purposes
Some can have one or more spiritual gifts if he wills for.
The church of Corinthians which Apostle Paul was addressing in the passage take their roots from the pagans and constantly spoke under the influence of evil spirits, so there was the need for the church to test and confirm if what the preached conforms with the norms and teaching of our Lord Jesus Christ. And i came out that their gifts are not from our Lord.
But one dangerous thing here was that, many of the leaders at that time formed churches around one or more of these counterfeit gifts, they did that for their own selfish gains. But some leaders also forbid the use of these counterfeit gifts to manifest in their churches .
Parishioners, let us try to discern the genuineness of the spiritual gifts given by God anyone manifest within our church (Steemchurch) today, let us try to access it and see if what they use the gift for it to honour God through what they do or say. Let us try to access those who possessed the spirit and see if it conforms with the word of God.
Thanks for your time with me and once again I am
