The Gifts Of The Spirit

The Gifts Of The Spirit

If you are not a Christian, you know nothing of the fruit or gifts of the Spirit. Those who are unspiritual do not receive the gifts of the Spirit. They are foolishness to him. They are unable to understand them. They are spiritually discerned. To obtain them you must repent of your sins, confess Jesus as the son of God, and be baptized for the remission of your sins. You will then receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

To learn how to teach, you follow those who are gifted teachers. To learn discernment, find someone who has that gift, and then follow his methods. Even if you are not called into the full gift of discernment, you can gain a measure of skill. Scripture says that we should desire the gifts of the Spirit. It is expected of us that we should discern between the right and wrong, good and evil, spirits of truth and spirits of error. The beloved disciple John, in the first epistle that bears his name, teaches us to try the spirits so that we know from whom they come.
