[Cronos]

From the catechism:

There are furthermore special graces, also called charisms after the Greek term used by St. Paul and meaning "favor," "gratuitous gift," "benefit."

Whatever their character - sometimes it is extraordinary, such as the gift of miracles or of tongues - charisms are oriented toward sanctifying grace and are intended for the common good of the Church. They are at the service of charity which builds up the Church 1 Cor 12..

Unlike Presbyterians and many other groups, we Catholics believe the the gifts like talking in tongues and miracles still continue. So too do our fellow Pentecostal brothers in Christ believe in this continuation of the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit is powerful and to be praised

All glory to God!

Thank you so much for sharing your insights, dear brother in Christ!

I am neither Catholic nor Pentecostal. I'm just a bakery shop kid.

But concerning miracles, I repeat what hosepipe often says: I not only believe in miracles, I count on them.

To God be the glory, not man, never man.
