Gifts of the Spirit

There are different gifts but the same Spirit; there are different ministries but the same Lord; there are different works but the same God who accomplishes all of them in everyone. To each person the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. To one the Spirit gives wisdom in discourse, to another the power to express knowledge. Through the Spirit one receives faith; by the same Spirit another is given the gift of healing, and still another miraculous powers. Prophecy is given to one; to another power to distinguish one spirit from another. One receives the gift of tongues, another that of interpreting the tongues. But it is one and the same Spirit
who produces all these gifts distributing them to each as he wills.
1 Corinthians 12:4-11
May we all live the gifts that we have been given in humble service to God and others.

More questions about the CMA

Here is where the DOR websites new CMA allocation page. ( Sorry, I havn't figured out how to make a "link" yet, any advise would be appreciated.)

www.dor.org/sd/keepingthespiritalive.htm


It seems as though the original, where I got my information for an earlier post is now gone. That information has been replaced by an "Along the Way" column by Bishop Clark that gives a general overview, from his perspective, on what the CMA funds support.


HMMMMM......

I want to believe that the DOR, and the people who run it,
are honest, good-hearted people, who are trying to do good work, for the people of God. I can only speculate as to why the information was removed, and that, in my quest for "dialogue" seems to be counter-productive. I am hoping that this may have been an oversight, or that maybe, what we originally saw was not correct,and it is being corrected so that it can be re-posted. I don't want to believe that there is something "sinister" going on here.

I will be checking with the DOR about this, I guess I will just have to wait and see what their response is.

Peace to All!

  1. When you are creating a post, there's a link icon - on mine, it looks like a chain. Make a copy of the link code of the piece you want linked - the www. - and paste it temporarily in your post (for reference), highlight the word/s you would like to link (like at this "article," or "here"), then click the link icon. A box will appear. Type in the code, click okay, and the word you indicated as your link word should be highlighted. Delete the code you pasted in for reference, then post as normal. Hopefully you will have a viable link. Of course, if you left off one . or one letter, it will not work!

    It took me a few tries, but I eventually got it.
