Now about spiritual gifts, brothers, I do not want you to be ignorant” (1 Corinthians 12:1). Spiritual gifts are very important to the body of Christ. It is exciting to learn about these gifts which God has made available to His children. Without these gifts the church cannot exist or move ahead. As believers we must learn all we can about spiritual gifts. When our knowledge increases, the gifts find a larger place in our lives and ministry. We become a greater blessing to the family of believers, and are more effective in spreading the gospel.
