WHAT ARE THE GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT?

These are located in 1 Corinthians 12 please read the whole chapter, but more specifically the passage beginning in verse7-11. "But the manifestation of the spirit is given to each one for the profit of all; for to one is given the WORD OF WISDOM through the spirit, to another the WORD OF KNOWLEDGE through the same spirit, to another FAITH by the same spirit, to another gifts of HEALING by the same spirit, to another the WORKING OF MIRACLES to another PROPHECY, to another DISCERNING OF SPIRITS to another different KINDS OF TONGUES, but one and the same spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills".

The Baptism in the Holy Spirit is of vital importance to the Christian walk or life. It is a special work beyond salvation. On the day of Pentecost disciples who had already given their life to Jesus "were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues" Acts 2:4. Speaking in tongues is the only phenomenon mentioned every time scripture details concerning the Baptism experience. Remember, all who receive salvation receive the Trinity, which includes the Holy Spirit; we are talking about a subsequent experience, although I have seen people get saved and experience this Baptism all at once.

The gifts outlined herein above have specific anointing and purpose for edifying the body of Christ, building up the Church and bring DELIVERANCE in many ways to believers.
