The Doctrine of Spiritual Gifts
Point 7.
Temporary spiritual gifts
Foundational gifts
The temporary spiritual gifts of apostle and prophet were foundational; EPH 2:20.
a. The gift of apostle.
1. The formation of the canon of the New Testament.
Hence, the revelation of the mystery doctrine of the Church-age.
2. The leadership in the pre-canon period.
b. Next is the gift of prophecy which was not a national leader like that of the Old Testament prophets.
EPH 2:20
having been built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus Himself being the corner stone,
Sign gifts
c. The third temporary gift is that of miracles, HEB 2:4
HEB 2:4
God also bearing witness with them, both by signs and wonders and by various miracles and by gifts of the Holy Spirit according to His own will.
The gift of miracles was the unique ability to accomplish supernatural works of power.
Peter was CERTAIN that he would be able to perform this miracle. He performed it at will.
This temporary spiritual gift was designed for the pre-canon period of the Church Age to validate and to accredit the communication gifts, primarily the ministry of the apostles.
