Everyone Benefits

Everyone benefits from the gifts that God gives to the church.

1. Pure gifts: not deserved, rather given…under the Lordship of Christ. (v.1-6)
2. Group gifts: distributed to each person, yet for the common good. (v.7)
3. Various gifts: assorted abilities apportioned individually, as God wills. (v.8-11)
