Introduction
"Gifts" in early Christian phrase-
ology are Christian endowments
("extraordinary powers"). We use
the word in the same sense, when
we say, for example, "He has a gift
for languages," or for music—es-
pecially for Christian service. I11
Christianity nothing is ever given to
us except for use! These New Testa-
ment "gifts" are imparted by the
Holy Spirit, and belong, it would
seem, though not strictly, to excep-
tional Christians.
Faith, hope, and love are not re-
garded as gifts in this narrower.
technical sense; they are rather
among the general gifts that every
Christian should possess. We usu-
ally speak of them as graces, or. j
personified, the Graces. Yet by con-
trast, at the end of Chapter 12. Paul |
pushes them to the front, beyond
all other particular and general en-
dowments.

Diversities of Gifts,
V. 4.
I11 the church life of today the
Spirit likewise apportions certain !
ministries fo certain individuals:
"To one is given through the Spir-
it" to preach: to another, as a trust- {
ee, to look after the church prop- |
erty; to another, as treasurer, to j
care for the finances: to another, to j
teach a Sunday school class; to an-
other, as president of a woman - j
guild, to direct the women of the j
church in certain special lines of |
service; to another, tto manage tho|
affairs at home and abroad of the!
denominational missionary soci-
eties; to another, to make Christian |
reading matter: and so on. But all [
these activities are important, and
necessary, that the church may suc-
cessfully function and Ine kingdom
come In the world.
