  • 1. Spiritual gift, a definition

Spiritual gift A talent, ability, or aptitude sovereignly bestowed on every believer in the Church Age by the Holy Spirit at the moment of salvation for performing a particular service in and for the Body of Christ (Rom. 12:6–8; 1 Cor. 12; Eph. 4:11;

  • Heb. 2:4).

  • 2. Biblical terminology

πνευματικῶν, Pneumatikon, emphasizes the source and nature of the gift, that it relates to the spiritual life of the believer.

SLIDE 11

χάρισμα, Charisma, emphasizes the grace nature of the gifts. The gifts are not based on any merit in the believer. In some believers the spiritual gift may enhance some natural ability, talent or inclination; in others it may not.
