Gifts of the Spirit

Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, let us prophesy in proportion to our faith.

or ministry, let us use it in our ministering; he who teaches, in teaching.

he who exhorts, in exhortation; he who gives, with liberality; he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.

Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be ignorant.

There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all.

for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit.

to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit.

to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.

But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.

And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues.

But earnestly desire the best gifts. And yet I show you a more excellent way.

Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy.

Even so you, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, let it be for the edification of the church that you seek to excel.

Therefore, brethren, desire earnestly to prophesy, and do not forbid to speak with tongues.

And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers.

for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.

As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ.

God also bearing witness both with signs and wonders, with various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to His own will.
