Understanding and discerning gifts from the beginning is one key attribute that will help navigate one in the sometimes entangling and perilous walk with Christ regarding things of the Spirit. One astounding question would be:
Did the prophets or seers of old possess an office given by the Son if Christ was not yet come?
Meaning there were prophets back then, before even the office of the Son was occupied by Christ. Yet we often say the office of a prophet is one of five gifts of the Son. Yet there were prophets way before He assumed the office; Son or Messiah. A thing that paints the face of the Theologian with terror. It is usually the things that do satiate our calm or the general masses calm that say to us that the task of our master is done. But if we are to sit and question our selves thoroughly we would do often find the interpreted word way lacking.
So, with the yeaning chasm of much questions set alight. We do go into the study of prophecy with the gaping in our understanding. That leaves a few things to tell. So, in the inebriation of much searching we may find self having added at least a thing or two on our concerted understanding. It is not only in the already revealed things that we should just aim and end our search, but Christ also said the Spirit of truth when He has come He will lead us in to the whole truth. Another astounding feature that the Holy Bible as it is lacks a lot of things that the Spirit is assigned to teach us. Yet we say it is the complete word of God as it is and we need no more information which is a deliberate lie.
John 16:12-15 KJV I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
If the written or the revealed word was the whole or all the truth. Christ would not have said the Spirit will lead us in to all truth or the wholeness of truth. Meaning there is a missing truth in the said words of Christ while He was with the disciples and that truth we should be on a quest to reach out and exhume in order to be fully set on our course to enter in at the door. And to understand the wholeness of our walk with Christ.
John 10:9 KJV I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
It is not upon any other but us to do go after the Holy Spirit and learn of Him all the said things that Christ said when He had come He will teach us. There are many things of the word that are not that often talked about like the seven gifts of the Father; which are the gifts of character. But it does not mean they are utterly left out. Only that with awe we would utilize them even the more to our cause and to our height in Him.
