| Summary: | As a contribution to the emerging dialogue between Protestant and Pentecostal academic theology this paper is discussing the question about the constitutive role of charismatic manifestations for the church in Corinth and possibly for the church in general terms. By verifying the meaning of the key terms that Paul uses to describe charismatic manifestations in Corinth and by analyzing the application of the parable about the body on the church the conclusion is drawn that church local and general can be understood as a charismatic fellowship. According to Paul, manifestations of the Spirit are based on mutual giving and receiving of those who are καινὴ κτίσις and were gifted by the Spirit. This is in line with the Pauline understanding of the church as κοινωνία, as a fellowship of giving and receiving. |
