'Gift' in the Bible
so that there is no gift of God in which you consciously come short while patiently waiting for the reappearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Yet I would that everybody lived as I do; but each of us has his own special gift from God--one in one direction and one in another.
to another the exercise of miraculous powers; to another the gift of prophecy; to another the power of discriminating between prophetic utterances; to another varieties of the gift of 'tongues;' to another the interpretation of tongues.
And by God's appointment there are in the Church--first Apostles, secondly Prophets, thirdly teachers. Then come miraculous powers, and then ability to cure diseases or render loving service, or powers of organization, or varieties of the gift of 'tongues.'
If I possess the gift of prophecy and am versed in all mysteries and all knowledge, and have such absolute faith that I can remove mountains, but am destitute of Love, I am nothing.
Therefore let a man who has the gift of tongues pray for the power of interpreting them.
This shows that the gift of tongues is intended as a sign not to those who believe but to unbelievers, but prophecy is intended not for unbelievers but for those who believe.
or if there is no interpreter, let the man with the gift be silent in the Church, speaking to himself and to God.
And when I am with you, whatever brethren you accredit by letter I will send to carry your kind gift to Jerusalem.
