THE HOLY SPIRIT AND HIS GIFTS

We're going to study Spiritual gifts and we want to begin tonight by talking about the desirability of spiritual gifts. If you want to take a pen or a pencil and make some notes, we'll be talking about the desirability of spiritual gifts. Somebody said I don't talk slow enough to make notes anyway. But you can try.

We're going to continue to talk about the doctrine of the church on Sunday morning and also the doctrine of the Holy Spirit on Sunday night and also spiritual gifts.
So, we'll be talking about the description of the gifts. We'll be talking about the kinds of spiritual gifts, describing each of the gifts.

That's the analogy that the apostle Paul gives us in his letter to the church at Corinth, also in his letter to the Colossians. So again and again the church is compared to a body, the body of Christ.
A body functions in a certain way. We talked about the head of th ...
