Holy Spirit: The One Who Gives Gifts

Genesis 1:26-28, 1 Corinthians 12:4-31

 

Does God need my help?

  • No. But he wants it
  • Humanity is designed and created to cooperate with God in creation (Gn. 1.26-28)

 

Why does God think this will work?

  • Because God empowers every believer (1 Cor. 12.6)
  • Every believer has a gift from the Spirit (12.7)
  • Because God directs the work (12.27-28)
  • We are the body, but Christ is the head (Col. 1.18)

 

Take Home Idea: God has created you and gifted you to participate in his work in our world.
