a list in Ephesians 4 with similar‚ but not the same‚ gifts. The list in Ephesians 4 gives examples of gifts such as evangelism‚ teaching‚ and pastoring. In both passages of scripture‚ Paul was addressing concerns within the specific church and not attempting to make a point of saying what is and is not a spiritual gift. Because there is not a passage of scripture that clearly lists every single spiritual gift‚ as shown in the difference between the lists in 1 Corinthians and Ephesians‚ Christians
