Supernatural Gifts
Supernatural gifts in the Bible, often referred to as spiritual gifts, are special abilities bestowed by the Holy Spirit upon believers for the purpose of serving the church and advancing God's kingdom. The concept is primarily outlined in the New Testament, particularly in passages such as 1 Corinthians 12, Romans 12, and Ephesians 4. In 1 Corinthians 12:7-11, Paul enumerates various gifts, including wisdom, knowledge, faith, healing, miracles, prophecy, discernment of spirits, tongues, and interpretation of tongues. These gifts are not given for personal gain but are intended for the edification of the church and the glorification of God.In addition to the aforementioned gifts, Ephesians 4:11 highlights roles like apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers as gifts to the church, emphasizing the importance of leadership in nurturing and equipping the body of Christ. The overarching theme is that these supernatural gifts, distributed by the Holy Spirit, operate in harmony to promote unity and maturity within the church (Ephesians 4:12-13). Thus, supernatural gifts are essential for the functioning of the church, allowing believers to fulfill their divine purpose and contributing to the overall mission of spreading the Gospel.
