It is not likely that the debate over the gifts of the Holy Spirit will be resolved prior to the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. Sincere believers take opposing views on this delicate matter. What helps us all is to slow down and consider the larger context of the gifts of the Holy Spirit and to recognize that spiritual gifts were not a human, much less, a denominational, idea. Spiritual gifts are divinely and deliberately disbursed by God the Spirit. We do well to remember that this oft-debated topic is more than a theological ball being hit back and forth over a net of argument. The Holy spirit is the source of all spiritual gifts and we must formulate our understanding of the gifts by discerning what the Scriptures themselves say. This message incorporates verse by verse teaching on this subject, plus some personal testimony from Pastor Jeff concerning how some of these gifts function in the present day church. If nothing more, this message should cause us to slow down and think deeply before we draw any conclusions about the matter of the current status of spiritual gifts within the present day Church.
