Gifts are forever
Dr. Roberto MirandaRESUMEN:
Every mature believer should be familiar with the gifts of the Spirit, which are the medium through which God channels His power through His people. The prophetic gift, for example, is used to inform, instruct, encourage, and correct believers. The idea that the gifts stopped manifesting after the establishment of the Canon of Scripture is false, as the gifts were designed to meet ongoing needs in the lives of God's people. Without expectation and faith in God's power, the manifestation of gifts will decline, leaving believers vulnerable to the Enemy. To cultivate these gifts, believers must study the Bible, receive the fullness of the Holy Spirit, and begin to use these resources in their daily lives.Every mature believer should be familiar with the workings of the gifts of the Spirit. This is the specific medium through which God has chosen to channel His power through His people, and He expects us to learn to move in His supernatural power.
In first Corinthians 12: 1 Paul warns: "I do not want you, brothers, to be ignorant about spiritual gifts." God specifically chose the prophetic gift, for example, to inform, instruct, encourage, and correct us (see 1 Corinthians 14: 3). That gift, as well as the other gifts of the Spirit, was continually manifested in the Old Testament, and has been manifested throughout the history of the Church. And it continues to manifest itself in our times wherever there are people willing to believe that God moves in the same way through the centuries, and that his gifts were not only for a limited time, but for whatever time his miraculous intervention is required. to fill a need in the midst of his people.
