Thanks Dr. Bob....
My only question is, if the church believes that the other 6 gifts are still essential, useful, and gifted to those within the church today, why did prophesy get cast aside? And, who cast it aside?
I believe that the church has its prophets, and the gift is as widely used today, as it was back in the early days of the church. Furthermore, it is as essential to the blessing and equipping of the saints as it ever was.
My thoughts on prophesy and the 7 motivational gifts is simply that you can't have one without the other. All 7 are essential to keep the church growing, moving forward, and strong in a world of evil doers, and spiritual warfare.
Thanks for reminding all of us that these gifts are there for the church, per prayer, in order to do the work of God.
Pastor Paul
