Abstract

JESUS CHRIST AND THE GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT by Peter Hocken Pentecostals have always recognized a close link between baptism in the Holy Spirit and spiritual gifts. Only when a Christian is baptized in the Holy Spirit does he ordinarily begin to exercise any of the charismata listed in 1 Corinthians 12:8-10. Certainly it is only among assemblies and fellowships that preach and experience the baptism in the Spirit that the full range of the spiritual gifts is exercised. These facts were particularly evident to the first generation of Pentecostals, for whom these gifts were new realities discovered through and subsequent to the Baptism.1 This Pentecostal conviction is manifested 1 A partial exception is found in the case of healing. Many early Pentecostals, e.g. those who were previously in the Christian and Missionary Alliance, believed in divine healing prior to being baptized in the Spirit. However, the evidence is that healing became more prominent in their awareness after baptism in the Spirit, and it then took its place more clearly among the full range of charismata pneumatika.
