1 Corinthians 12 (Gifts of the Spirit – Part 2)
Dec 7, 2011 • Pastor Mark Ramirez
This teaching continues exploring the gifts, focusing on how the Holy Spirit works supernaturally through believers .
Key gifts explained:
Miracles – God intervening beyond natural laws, always with purpose and according to His will
Prophecy – speaking forth God’s Word for edification, exhortation, and comfort
Discerning of Spirits – recognizing what is from God, man, or demonic sources
Tongues – Spirit-given language for prayer and worship
Important principles:
Miracles require God’s will, faith, and purpose
Prophecy must be tested and aligned with Scripture
Discernment protects the church from false teaching and deception
Tongues are God-directed communication, not chaos or loss of control
