What is the evidence that someone has received salvation? Steve and Rich are talking about this today as a continuation of last week's discussion on the fruit of the Spirit. Gifts are given by the Holy Spirit to everyone who puts their faith and trust in Christ. Ephesians 4 and 1 Corinthians 12 are referenced many times throughout this episode. What do these gifts of the Spirit mean? Steve shares that he feels a major misunderstanding in the church today is that these gifts are to be used to encourage the body of Christ. It is not a matter of simply identifying the personal gifts but being active in using them. Rich states that it is essential that believers use their gifts. Steve and Rich also take a few minutes to talk about Biblical sign gifts, specifically speaking in tongues. It is important to think through these gifts. Does God still work miraculous healing today? This and so much more is discussed in this episode!
