Paul says to the people of the church of Corinth:

1 Cor 1:7,

"So that ye(Corinthians) come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:"

Paul tells to Corinthians that they do have all the gifts. What are these gifts?

They are described later on in 1 Cor 12:7-11,

"4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit

....................................................................................................................................................

8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;

9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;

10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:

11But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will."

Does the church, which we are menbers of, have those gifts? Lets examine it.
