1 CorinthiansSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg discusses 1 Corinthians 12-14, which are often cited to support the idea of supernatural gifts in the Church.

Gregg emphasizes the centrality of love in Christian practice, as well as the importance of utilizing gifts for the edification and growth of others. He notes the possibility of fake spiritual revelations and emphasizes the importance of testing prophetic utterances against the Scriptures.
