In 1 Peter 4:10-11 Peter speaks of discharging the Spiritual Gifts faithfully as stewards not as owners of the gifts. We need to be faithful and generous if our distribution of the Gifts of the Holy Spirit towards the body of Christ is a way that builds others up while not calling attention to ourselves. Far too much of the work of the Holy Spirit in the body of Christ has been overshadowed by the instrument instead of all the glory going to the Giver of the gift it has unfortunately been upon the recipient of the gift. There is no greater deterrent to the continual work of the Holy Spirit in the church than the misuse of the gifts of the Holy Spirit seen in the self-glorying arrogance of the person who claims to be anointed by God! The clearest way to see if a person is truly anointed by God and has been baptized in the Holy Spirit will be their invisibility and God’s visibility! On the Eiffel Tower Gustave Eiffel included 72 names of fellow scientists and engineers who had impacted society at that time. Those names live on in that monument placed there by another, and so too will ours because of the work of Christ!
