The Holy Spirit and His Gifts | Page 135

An example in the New Testament of the gifts of the word of knowledge and the word of wisdom operating together is found in the Book of Revelation. As we pointed out in the previous lesson, when the Lord spoke to the Apostle John on the Isle of Patmos, it was in the form of a vision. Jesus appeared to him in this vision and told him about the present condition of the seven churches in Asia Minor. The condition of those seven churches was a manifestation of the word of knowledge. The present condition of these churches was revealed to John through a word of knowledge in a vision. Then the Lord went on to give John a word of wisdom. The Lord told each one of the churches what to do in the future, according to His plans and purposes for them. Ananias We also studied about a man named Ananias, as recorded in Acts chapter 9. ACTS 9:10
