Section 1
Paul continues in 1 Corinthians 1:7, emphasizing that believers “do not lack any spiritual gift as [they] eagerly await the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ.” This isn’t referring to the Book of Revelation, but to the second coming—the unveiling of Christ Himself. Christians are called to eagerly await that day, desiring His return with passion rather than treating it as a distant concept. Paul corrects the idea that spiritual gifts ceased after the early church. Scripture reveals that gifts remain active until Christ returns, serving the body and glorifying the Lord. These aren’t trophies of spirituality or toys for self-display—they are tools for ministry. The Lord gives the right “tool” at the right time, equipping believers for whatever task or challenge they face.

Section 2
Paul reminds the Corinthians that in Jesus, they are not lacking. Everything needed for spiritual growth, wisdom, or endurance already dwells in them through Christ. Colossians teaches that in Him, “the fullness of the Godhead” dwells bodily. This means believers have access to every divine resource but may not always open themselves to it. Growth in faith is not about receiving something new but becoming more receptive to what God has already placed within us. Like a toolbox waiting to be used, spiritual gifts are available when we partner with God’s purposes. Whether it’s wisdom, courage, or faith, the Lord supplies what is needed in each moment, proving again that He is both provider and sustainer.

Section 3
Paul concludes with a profound promise: “He will sustain you to the end, so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.” The same Savior who saves also strengthens. Just as we rely on Him for forgiveness, we must also depend on Him for endurance. God provides divine energy—spiritual “fuel”—to carry us through hardship and renew our strength. No vitamin, coffee, or worldly fix can match the sustaining power of Jesus Christ. He never quits, never abandons, and never tires of lifting His children when they fall. Even in weakness or weariness, He renews hearts with hope and songs of praise. The message is simple and timeless: Jesus is enough—yesterday, today, and forever.
