Numerous passages show the purpose of spiritual gifts to be the effect they have on the Body of Christ:
- 1 Corinthians 12:7 - "Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good."
- Ephesians 4:12 - "to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up"
- 1 Peter 4:10 - "Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others..."
As you can read in these references, spiritual gifts are not for personal benefit or selfish gain. Rather, they are for the benefit of the body of Christ. When properly exercised, spiritual gifts will contribute to the overall health and growth of the church.
