1 Now Concerning Spiritual Gifts I do not want you to be ignorant. (1 Cor. 12:1 NIV) + Lesson Six + Some gifted Christians never learn to use their spiritual gifts in the right way. People may show little concern for harmony or peace as they practice their gifts they may struggle for supremacy or become judgmental with one another. The Church suffers through all of this, and the Spirit's gifts receive a tarnished image among God's people. The Holy Spirit provides His Church with His gifts and also blesses us with the character we need to use His gifts as well. 1
2 The "fruit of the Spirit" make up this character. These fruit enable us to use the gifts for the common good. Spiritual gifts are special gifts: given by the Holy Spirit given by the grace of God received by all members of the Church (i.e., all believers in Jesus as Lord and Savior receive of one or more the gifts) given to be used within the Church (but many times to touch people outside of the Christian Faith) given to the build up Church as we glorify God by using the gifts 2
3 Life Purposes Your Ministries Evaluate Your Effectiveness Affirmation Changes Discoveries SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT Suggest opportunities to use your identified gifts in the mission and ministry of Resurrection congregation. 3
4 Read: 1 Corinthians 12:31-13:13 (critical role of agapa love in the euseo of the egifts) Galatians 5:16-26 (v list the fruits of the Spirit ) Love: the Christian character trait whereby God empowers us to seek the highest good of another, no matter the cost or sacrifice involved Joy: the Christian character trait whereby God enables us to find delight in the Lord, regardless of the circumstances of our lives Peace: the Christian character trait whereby God enables us to find wholeness and quietness of heart in the conviction that we are the Lord's Patience: the Christian character trait whereby God empowers us to be forbearing and forgiving with others, as our Lord is with us 4
5 Kindness: the Christian character trait whereby God empowers us to be considerate and benevolent towards others, not irking or provoking them Goodness: the Christian character trait whereby God empowers us to express our sincere goodwill toward others at every point, even if it means criticism and rebuke Faithfulness: the Christian character trait whereby God empowers us to be trustworthy and reliable in our relationships with others Gentleness: the Christian character trait whereby God enables us to be submissive to His will, open to being taught, and compassionate for other's needs and emotions Self-Control: the Christian character trait whereby God causes us to discipline ourselves so that we can serve others 5
6 THREE THINGS TO REMEMBER: 1) You are GIFTED by the Holy Spirit 2) You are to DISCOVER and USE your spiritual gifts for the sake of God's Kingdom 3) You are to use your gifts PROPERLY in love and with the character traits of the fruits of the Spirit The Mission of RLCS is to: LOVE and OBEY the Savior, EQUIP believers for ministry, SHARE the Good News about Jesus HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT Thank you for your attendance and participation! 6
