Abstract

This article reviews the moments when the writers of the Old and New Testaments registered that God abundantly outpoured gifts to His people through the Holy Spirit to accompany the ministry of the Messiah announced in the symbolism of the Israelite Sanctuary. Though God have outpoured gifts along the history, it is sought to detect the moments in which there have been a bigger outpouring of gifts. This revision registers the way the Spirit of God administers gifts and seeks to understand the goal of giving these gifts, seeking to comprehend if there is any level of hierarchy among gifts. In the conclusion, it is emphasized that the years of ecclesiastical practice have outshined key concepts in the relationship between believers and gifts of the Spirit, affecting personal and collective growth in faith.
