For example, in 1 Cor 14:27, Paul says, "In anyone speaks in a tongue, it should be by two or at the most three, and each in turn, and one must interpret."<br /><br />So I think there is a difference in the manifestation corporately, and outside the church.<br /><br />What do you think?<br /><br />Also, about prophesy-what do you consider it? I am of the understanding that it is hearing from God. Yes, there are prophets, but shouldn't all believers be "prophetic," ie, able to hear, and hear from the Lord?<br /><br />If that is the case, then don't visions, dreams, impressions and things like that count as prophesy?Matthew Johndrownoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2257114463060999037.post-66613010358351428822011-10-25T01:54:20.280-04:002011-10-25T01:54:20.280-04:00What is a "true believer"What is a "true believer"Thyielanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2257114463060999037.post-87994347462592710982011-10-24T21:17:21.216-04:002011-10-24T21:17:21.216-04:00Yeah, I have a comment.

The "call" in verses 28-29 is the choosing and calling of the nation of Israel to be a nation of prophets and priests, especially set apart as God's own possession. This call is irrevocable. (And we now have a part of this calling.)<br /><br />I can't see that Romans 11 speaks about spiritual ministry gifts in the church.<br /><br />[BTW the Toronto blessing, etc, didn't seem to work well in Australia.

His command was to all his disciples, about 70 at the time. Then Paul differentiates them as gifts - to rule out confusion in my own mind, I live by faith that when the gift is necessary, it will be manifest and I don't have to wonder, "Do I have that gift or not?"<br /><br />The gifts I use more frequently are words of knowledge, prophecy, interpretation (particularly of dreams), healing, faith and wisdom. And I pray in tongues but I don't believe that is the same gift that Paul is speaking about. <br /><br />My weakest gift is discerning spirits, although I surround myself with people who are strong in that gift. For example, I was with a friend and we were taking care of some business at her home. I told her I would pray, but she would need to tell me when it was finished. In that way, we need each other.<br /><br />Dinner is calling and I have to go; hoping there is more chatting tonight.Andrea Yorkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17731698199965258229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2257114463060999037.post-80599609612321338412011-10-24T20:46:20.094-04:002011-10-24T20:46:20.094-04:00You might be interested in one of my articles on &...You might be interested in one of my articles on "speaking in tongues".<br /><br />http://newlife.id.au/christian-theology/speaking-in-tongues-xenoglossia/Marghttp://www.newlife.id.aunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2257114463060999037.post-58888437847697186592011-10-24T20:33:06.931-04:002011-10-24T20:33:06.931-04:00David, I really, REALLY like this article. I got ...David, I really, REALLY like this article. I got a lot out of reading it!<br /><br />I love how you've put an actual Biblical example to (almost) all of the nine spiritual manifestations of 1 Corinthians 11. <br /><br />My personal experience has been that I receive the ability to operate with one of these spiritual manifestations when God wants me to do something about a certain situation at a particular point in time. At other times the manifestation-gift seems dormant. I have no control on when or where I receive these manifestations <br /><br />Because of my experience, I see the manifestations in 1 Corinthians 12:7-11 as different from the spiritual gifts mentioned elsewhere in the New Testament. <br /><br />I say this because I believe that I have one or two other spiritual gifts/abilities that stay with me all the time; I can draw on these abilities daily if needed. <br /><br />In case that was all a bit garbled, let me reiterate: I distinguish between the manifestations of 1 Corinthians 11 - which the Spirit gives as he determines (for, I believe, particular situations) - and the spiritual gifts (ministies and abilities) mentioned elsewhere in the NT.Marghttp://www.newlife.id.aunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2257114463060999037.post-68356621882076355542011-10-16T22:02:02.299-04:002011-10-16T22:02:02.299-04:00Quite a well put together article and a good guide...Quite a well put together article and a good guide for one to set up the 5 fold ministry. <br /><br />Haven't read it all the way through yet but will as time permits. <br /><br />Now if some of the churches here would follow this principle.photogrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05149737419546300220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2257114463060999037.post-12089445572039098092011-10-13T02:51:40.053-04:002011-10-13T02:51:40.053-04:00Informative and detailed post!!

So this is new territory for me. I had been associated with religions that did not embrace the gifts or felt they were not valid in today's faith.<br /><br />It is possible we all have prophetic tendencies but we are only the vessels edifying God's spoken words to us.<br /><br />Althogh I embrace the gifts, I am reluctant to admit to having any. Carries too much responsibility to be handled lightly.<br /><br /> My biggest fear is glorifying my self rather than glorifying God if I did possess any gifts.photogrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05149737419546300220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2257114463060999037.post-37849026855324134992011-10-06T11:56:13.609-04:002011-10-06T11:56:13.609-04:00David, because you're not writing regularly, I...David, because you're not writing regularly, I'm not checking your blog but I did this morning. It's such a great testimony and I've shared it several times, too. God is so good; I'm disappointed that we aren't going to be in Redding at the same time. I would have particularly loved to meet your family.<br /><br />@photogr: I'm not a prophet either but I am prophetic. I've recently been learning this. <br /><br />Before, like you, it was a one-off. I would 'know' something but those experiences were not regular for me. Now, through some training through prophetic schools (like the one David taught, Elisha & Elijah mention prophetic schools too, so they existed long before my time), I realize that we are ALL prophetic - meaning we can all hear God. IF we are listening. <br /><br />Now it's not a rare experience but something that happens regularly, although I am still wrong at times but I'm learning to discern the voice of God correctly. You can do it too.Andrea Yorkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17731698199965258229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2257114463060999037.post-72788712796105486702011-10-03T22:25:23.789-04:002011-10-03T22:25:23.789-04:00rounawWell David, that has happened a limited few ...rounawWell David, that has happened a limited few times with me over the last three years.
