In sharp contrast to worldly views, all human beings receive gifts from God. Everyone is gifted, as each person has natural tendencies or abilities bestowed through the spirit in man. Additionally, within the church, spiritual gifts are imparted through the Holy Spirit, building on natural gifts without conflicting with them. All gifts belong to God and should be used for His glory, particularly spiritual gifts, which are extraordinary endowments given to members of God's church for the benefit of the whole body. These gifts are granted by the grace of God through the power of the Holy Spirit. The purpose of spiritual gifts is primarily the edification and unity of the church, and secondarily the conviction and conversion of future prospective members. They serve to enlighten, improve, illuminate, uplift, enhance, and educate the church. Within the church, differing gifts and functions exist, yet all are from the same Spirit, designed not for individual glory but for the good of everyone. Each member, though functioning differently, contributes to the unity of the Body of Christ, with every gift being vital, even if not always noticeable. God gives different gifts according to the needs of the church, and to every member He assigns specific gifts for service. Each individual has at least one proper gift from God, and these gifts vary as widely as the church's needs at any given time. Spiritual gifts fall into categories such as those for the ministry of the word, involving speaking and teaching, and those for practical service, encompassing understanding, power, sympathy, and administration. Regardless of the type, the gift of love stands above all, regulating the use of other gifts and ensuring they are applied properly for the church's benefit. Spiritual gifts remain available and permanent, ready to be given by God when necessary, as the needs of the church arise. They are essential tools for the edification and unity of the Body of Christ, providing a wonderful opportunity to serve God and His church more effectively. Every member is encouraged to use their gifts fervently, recognizing that active use allows God to increase their power for greater service.

God has bestowed upon us numerous gifts, which are freely given as acts of grace and undeserved favor. These gifts encompass everything we need, including deliverance from peril, self-control, Christian knowledge, consolation, confidence, redemption, and salvation through Jesus Christ. We cannot earn the Holy Spirit through our own efforts, wealth, or appearance; it is a gift granted by God to those who are called, obedient, humbled, and baptized with the laying on of hands. Eternal life itself is a gift from God, not an inherent possession, and He is not obligated to grant it. These gifts are designed for the benefit of the whole church, conferred in measures and manners best suited for usefulness and to produce good. God provides everything necessary, especially during trials and tribulations, ensuring that we have what we need to stand firm at the end of the age. He desires us to remember these gifts, to understand that He truly wants us in His Kingdom, and to trust that whatever challenges we face, He will equip us to endure and overcome.
