Looking for folks walking with Jesus and growing in the gifts He died to bring us. Healing, Words of Knowledge, prophetic gifts, etc.
I see things speeding up in the spiritual realm and we are supposed to be growing as we are being conformed to the image of the Son.

My gifts are currently in a season of discipline and understanding. My gifts have been centered in wisdom, knowledge, discernment and teaching. I see these the most in my life and are currently being energized more than usual.

Not a fan of MUST. But I understand and respect your strong feelings on the matter.

The gift of Holy Spirit began Jesus ministry, he imparted Holy Spirit to the 12, after the Crucifixion they denied Him until the Day of Pentecost, from then on they would go to their death before denying Him. It is this indwelling that begins the process of all other manifestations.

It is the words of Jesus, doesn't matter who is or is not a fan of the word, it is truth.

Why are you sorry? Is born again a bad thing in your eyes? What are you searching for in a Christian chat if it isnt to be born again? Born again as in to put faith in Christ and through grace we are transformed in His image or being born again to die to the old self and to be reborn as a new man or woman centered on Christ Jesus.

Yea, i have noticed the time speeding up too, as for gifts i have been used in most of them so far. I think wisdom is what i amused for the most. "The stone that protects wisdom" is the literal translation of my full name in order from first, middle, to last. I don't like to make things about myself though, i just found it out one day when finding out the meaning to my name because i always hated and cursed it.
I believe that everyone is growing ultimately as awareness of truth is close upon all. Its so close that even those new age people and atheists are starting to notice the signs. It's good because people are starting to make their choice as the wheat is being separated from the tares.

Thank you kindly for your work for the Kingdom. Yes, what you shared is a great help to me, and I am sure others as well, as we are walking out His plan for our lives, to His glory and praise forevermore.
I was the recipient of the first answered prayer I recall when I was about 5 or 6, from then on I was aware of His abiding presence in my life.
Growing and being awakened to how to access His gifts more fully began about 10 years ago with Plumbline Ministries, (plumblinem.com) and am still growing, praise Jesus.
There has never been a time when so much very good teaching has been available.
Getting away from a list of do's and don'ts and walking as fully as we can in relationship has been tremendous.

I am finding He will grow us as much as we will allow ourselves to be grown.

Recently, I am going over/focus on 'spiritual gifts' again..more in depth.
- 9 gifts (I Corinthians 12:4-11).
- There are more gifts though..
----
'Discerning of Spirits' is much needed gift..nowadays.
- We need more discernment and wisdom.

Blessings,

Hello shittim, it is pleasant to fellowship with true, Holy Spirit anointed Christians. When I use the term "born again" I consider it a foretelling of our future. Are we really made immortal yet? We can say we are saved and born again but we are really speaking prophecy, the same as God does.

Rom. 4:17 "(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were." Some would say this is a contradiction or God lied. In reality, it shows us God is outside of our time constraints.

As pertaining to the spiritual gifts, I see God's Church is not where it should be. Same as for myself, I am not where I should be. Well, it is a journey. So, let us not become complacent and keep moving. Praying for and encouraging each other all the way. 5thumbsup.gif

Scriptural admonition is to grow in the Lord not to grow in the gifts. Holy Spirit led believers would know this is without compromise.

Well, I believe if we are growing in the Lord the spiritual gifts would be evident in our lives. :whistle:

Hardly possible if one is focused on the charismatic gifts widely touted in the church today.

Growth is attained by study and contemplation of Gods word.
