Spiritual Gifts

1 Corinthians 12
8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;

word of wisdom, word of knowledge-wisdom comes from God, through his word. True words of wisdom come from the in depth understanding of his word. (Proverbs chapter 8). When we excersise this it will grow.

Psalm 111
10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.

Proverbs 1
7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.

fear- revere, deep respect or admiration, awe

John 14
26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

The Holy Spirit truly does this, when we pray for wisdom and understanding from the word of God.

9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;

faith-conviction of the truth, Those with the gift of faith trust that God is sovereign and He is good. They take Him at His Word and put full weight of their lives in His hands. They expect God to move and are not surprised when He answers a prayer or performs a miracle.

healing - I cant help but point out that "healing" of the mind is an awesome thing. Many people need this healing, because they have no idea what the Bible is actually telling us. They simply believe what some man may tell them and go with it. It is also important to remember that God is the one who does the healing.

10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:

miracles - “workings of powers”
prophecy-this simply means to "teach"
prophesying changed from declaring new revelation to declaring the completed revelation God has already given.

2 Peter 2
1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

"were false prophets", "shall be false teachers", This short verse shows this obvious change from prophets to teachers. There is no need today for new information, as everything we need to know and understand is already written.

discerning of spirits - to distinguish between good spirits, and evil spirits, The holy spirit is the spirit of truth, and the opposite of this is the spirit of error. falling under this catagory as well is distinguishing between the truth of the Word of God and the doctrines of devils.

Hebrews 5
13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

1 Timothy 4
1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils

1 John 4
6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

divers kinds of tongues - speaking numerous languages
interpretation of tongues - interpretation of languages

Many will utilize this to accommodate the false "gibberish" speaking in tongues. This simply means having the ability to speak numerous languages, and the interpretation of languages.

example:
divers kind of tongue (language)=Hebrew
aveenoo sha-bah-sha-mayim yit-kuh-desh shim-kah tah-voh mal-coo-tih-cah yay-ah-suh rit-zoh-nih-kah kah-uh-share nah-uh-sah vah-sha-mayim

if i were to say this what does it mean?

interpretation of a tongue-language
Our father, who is in the heavens. His name is holy. His kingdom will come, his will to be done in the earth, according as in the heaven.

Speaking numerous languages would have been, and still is today, an awesome tool for spreading the gospel. The cloven tongue and divers kind of tongues are two totally different things. It is important to distinguish between the two. Add to this "prophesying changed from declaring new revelation to declaring the completed revelation God has already given", and we have yet another reason why the "gibberish" speaking in tongues is an obvious error. There is no need for any new revelation, as everything we need to know has already been written. The time will come when both sons and daughters will prophesy. This will happen during the 5 month long "hour" of temptation. We are not there yet.
