God Gives the Gifts
Scripture encourages us to seek God and trust Him to gift us as He sees fit. Our responsibility is to yield to the Holy Spirit; however He chooses to fill us is His responsibility.
Be at Peace with Each Other
Reconciliation occurs when repentance and forgiveness removes the enmity that exists between two parties. We cannot assume responsibility for the lives of others, but we must assume responsibility for our own attitudes and actions.
Uniquely Gifted to Serve
The Holy Spirit manifests spiritual gifts in the Body of Christ for the edification of all. The sanctifying process requires that the whole Body of Christ work together, and the Holy Spirit equips each individual to serve one another in three ways.
The Ministry of Reconciliation
When we are reconciled to God, we become brothers and sisters in Christ, and that is the basis for our unity. We must personally choose to be reconciled to God by faith, but it is universally inclusive, and we must voluntarily receive reconciliation as a gift to voluntarily share it as a ministry.
