| Summary: | History of interpretation reveals a lack of consensus about how we are to understand the relationship between 'charismata', 'diakoniai' and 'energemata' (1 Cor 12:4-6). Today these terms are frequently seen as interchangeable, one major consequence being that all Christians are understood as being called to ministry (Kasemann). Linguistic and rhetorical considerations require, however, that the 'diakoniai' be understood as ministries which are a commission from the Lord and reserved to apostolic preachers. They thus constitute a species, distinct from 'energemata' within the generic concept of 'charismata'. |
