  4. 2. Father, Son, and Spirit (4-6) • Trinitarian Reference The most common pattern in the NT Epistles is to refer to God the Father with the word “God” and to refer to God the Son with the word “Lord”. • Gifts , Service, and Activities There are varieties of gifts (Verse 4) are, literally, charismata – gifts of grace. There are varieties of service (verse 5), or diakonia, refers to the way in which God-given abilities are to be used. To be a servant.

  5. 3. The Manifestation Of The Spirit (7-11) • All Christians Receive a Spiritual Gift Just as the Holy Spirit indwells every believer (Romans 8:9), so he will reveal himself to be present; and he will appear in a variety of ways. • The Common Good If we don’t look any farther than our own personal satisfaction then our gifts are completely wasted. We have to look past ourselves.
