How are the gifts and the fruit of the Spirit different and how are they the same? What different roles do they play in the life of the believer?
Everyday In The Spirit, Pt. 4
Revealing the Spirit, 1 Cor. 12:7

18 But as it is, God arranged the members in the body, each one of them, as he chose. 19 If all were a single member, where would the body be? 20 As it is, there are many parts, yet one body. 1 Corinthians 12:18-20 (ESV)
7 To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. 1 Corinthians 12:7 (ESV)
4 Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; 5 and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord; 6 and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who empowers them all in everyone. 1 Corinthians 12:4-6 (ESV)
6 We have different gifts, according to the grace given us… Romans 12:6a (NIV)
10 As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace: 1 Peter 4:10 (ESV)
12 So with yourselves, since you are eager for manifestations of the Spirit, strive to excel in building up the church. 1 Corinthians 14:12 (ESV)
11 whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies—in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. 1 Peter 4:11 (ESV)
