Spiritual Gifts
Introduction:
Miracles, healings, supernatural knowledge, people being raised from the dead. No wonder our Christianity sometimes seems powerless when we compare it to that manifested by the Early Church. What was that dynamic power those first Chris¬tians had, and why don't we see more of it today?
Before His death Jesus gave His authority to His disciples and sent them out with specific instructions.

Generally, the spiritual gifts are classified into three groups: the vocal gifts, the revelation gifts, and the power gifts. We will look at each group in turn.
The Vocal Gifts:
The vocal gifts are speaking in tongues, interpretation of tongues, and prophecy.
Speaking In Tongues and Interpretation
The spiritual gift of speaking in tongues must not be confus¬ed with the personal prayer language you received when you were baptized in the Holy Spirit. The tongues mentioned here is the public gift of tongues.
The Scripture: 1 Corinthians 14:22
“Tongues, then are a sign…for unbelievers.”

Question 12 of 18
12. Question
The expression, weigh carefully, is translated judge in many versions of the Bible.
The Revelation Gifts:
The revelation gifts are the message of wisdom, the message of knowledge, and the distinguishing or discerning of spirits.
The Bible gives us very little specific information on how these gifts are to be used, so we will see how they were used in the Early Church.
The Message of Knowledge
The message or word of knowledge is a supernatural knowledge previously unknown to the person and given by the Holy Spirit.
In Acts 5, we have the story of Ananias and Sapphira, who sold a piece of property, then lied about the selling price.
The Scripture: Acts 5:3
“Then Peter said, ‘Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land?”

Question 13 of 18
13. Question
Later when Sapphira also lied, Peter told her she was going to die, and she fell down dead.
These are two instances of the message of knowledge in operation.
The Message of Wisdom
The message or word of wisdom is supernatural wisdom given for a specific occasion. In the early days of the church a dispute arose over whether or not non-Jewish converts to Christianity had to be circumcis¬ed. Paul and Barnabas went to Jerusalem to meet with the elders of the church.
After hearing their testimony, James, the leader of the Jerusalem church, had a message of wisdom.
The Scripture: Acts 15:19
“It is my judgment, therefore, that we should not make it dif¬ficult for the Gentiles who are turning to God.”
19. What was James’ judgment?

14. Question
Through a message of wisdom the unity of the Early Church was re-established.
Distinguishing Between Spirits
Distinguishing between spirits is the divine ability that enables a person to distinguish between the divine, satanic, or human origin of spiritual activity.
A sorcerer, named Simon, offered to pay the apostles if they would give him the ability to lay hands on people and have them receive the Holy Spirit.
Peter chastised him and told him to repent.
The Scripture: Acts 8:23
“For I see that you are full of bitterness and captive to sin.”

This was an example of the distinguishing between spirits in operation.
The Power Gifts:
The power gifts complete our list of spiritual gifts. They are faith, gifts of healing, and miraculous powers.
Faith
The gift of faith is supernatural faith given for a specific time or occasion.
When Paul and Barnabas were in Salamis, the proconsul wish¬ed to hear the word of God. Elymas, a sorcerer, opposed them.
The Scripture: Acts 13:9-11
“Then…Paul…looked straight at Elymas and said, ‘You are a child of the devil and an enemy of everything that is right…. Now the hand of the Lord is against you. You are go¬ing to be blind.’ Immediately mist and darkness came over him. “

Question 16 of 18
16. Question
Gifts of healing
We see the gifts of healing much in evidence in the life of Paul. While the apostle was being taken to Rome to stand trial, the ship that carried him was shipwrecked off the isle of Malta. The chief official of the island welcomed everyone into his home where his father was suffering from fever and dysentery.
The Scripture: Acts 28:8b
“Paul went in to see him and, after prayer, placed his hands on him and healed him.”
22. What happened when Paul laid hands on the father?

Miraculous powers
The final spiritual gift we will look at is that of miraculous powers, or, as it is more commonly called, miracles.
In Joppa, a well-loved disciple named Tabitha who had done much good and helped the poor, died. Her friends sent for Peter.
The Scripture: Acts 9:40
“Peter sent them all out of the room; then he got down on his knees and prayed. Turning toward the dead woman, he said, ‘Tabitha, get up.’ She opened her eyes and seeing Peter she sat up. “
