So the goal of the spiritual gifts is the maturing of the saints, the maturing of the Body of Christ to full maturity, conformity to Christ, that we will be made like Him, that we will be like Christ in every way. The Bible says that we are to forgive one another as God in Christ forgave us (Eph. Do I have a purpose in life? " Ephesians 4:12) Not only do we have gifts and talents we can use to earn a living, to provide for our families or to help our fellow man, each of us has a unique gift that we are to use to build up the body of Christ. For the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ; from whom the whole body, being fitted and held together by what every joint supplies, according to the proper working of each individual part, causes the growth of the body for the building up of itself in love.
So you can have a spiritual gift ministry and be flourishing and no one hardly even knows about it. Paul said in Ephesians 2:20 that the church is "built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone. " Are we spending more time comparing one person's gifts and situation or are we encouraging others? We need to be saved from the wrong concepts or practices regarding the building up of the Body and be brought back to the God-ordained way to meet and to serve for the church. According to the grace of God which was given to me, like a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another is building on it. Brother Lee commented, "Finally, we also must have love for the brothers, even for those who require discipline. Christ has given us the spoils of his victory and blesses his church with spiritual power! As the members of His Body, / Each one is now a life supply. This is why you're here, this is what God is doing in the world, and oh, is it exciting and sweet. This is discerning the Body. There's a teetering instability to immaturity. The weightiest activity I do, what builds you up as the body of Christ, is speaking words that I'm least qualified to speak. They don't put anything into their bodies without knowing what it is.
The first biblical reference to this body was made by Jesus during the last supper. By God's grace, he has provided those who can equip the saints for ministry, namely the leaders and teachers of the church. But it's not just any that He chooses, we'll talk about it more later in the message, but I've already said what. As we pursue different ministries, are we making sure that we are putting first the ministry of the gospel? Amen, Lord, may there be such a perfecting going on today so that the members of Your Body, all the saints in the church life, would be perfected and function in their measure for the building up of the church! But let's look briefly and the continuation of Paul's letter, "to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes. By this love we love God, Christ, and the church. If you workshopped the idea among different churches and pastors, you'd get all sorts of ideas—you need to hire a church growth consultant. You've been trying to share with them, but you've got a workplace evangelism thing going on. By functioning in our measure we don't mean that we set up the chairs in the meeting, we visit the sick saints, or do all kinds of practical things or even pray for the activities of the church. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ also forgave you. " Kent Hughes gives a great analogy for each of these two tasks. We need to hold to the Truth in Love to Grow up into Him in all things, who is the Head, Christ. Through the growth in life and the development of the gifts, each member of the Body of Christ has its own measure, which operates for the growth of the Body.
Some people use their gifts in ways that are very obvious. It is essential to the body that you use your special gift in service to God. The pastor/teacher, formalized by the end of the New Testament era as the office of elder in the pastoral epistles, are the pediatricians of the church. That's what these gifts bring about. Don't marvel at the one serving, marvel at God who gives "according to the measure of Christ's gift. While the Bible doesn't give us such a comparison, I think our instinct is to give them the most important and public-facing aspect of the body—maybe the face, or the hands, or the tongue, or the spine? And God does this by gifting the church with leaders who can equip the members of the church for the work of ministry. What is your response? So discover what your gifts are, and what the gifts are. At such a time we will be the fullness of the One who fills all in all (Ephesians 1:23).
Speaking the Truth in Love. I want to agree with Jesus.
