I’ve been using the hashtag #IllegalOperations the past couple days, and it got me thinking about what some #IllegalOperations are in the church and in the spirit realm at large. In 1 Corinthians 12:1, the Apostle Paul said, “Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be ignorant...” Now, thanks to a teaching I recently heard by Prophet Jonathan Ferguson, I now understand when a word or phrase is italicized in Scripture, that means that it was not originally there; it was put there to help us better understand what is being said, although sometimes it hampers the intended message. So in this case, Paul is actually saying “Now concerning [the] spiritual [supernatural], I don’t want you to be stupid [unintelligent].”
