1 Corinthians 12:9 Summary

In 1 Corinthians 12:9, we see that the Holy Spirit gives some people a special gift of faith, which is the ability to trust God for specific needs or circumstances, and also gives some people the gift of healing, which is the ability to pray for others and see them healed. This is a demonstration of God's love and power, as seen in Jesus' ministry, where He healed every disease and sickness (Matthew 9:35). As we trust in God's goodness and sovereignty, we can have faith that He will work everything out for our good, as promised in Romans 8:28-30. By trusting in God's power and love, we can experience the joy and peace that comes from knowing Him, as described in Philippians 4:6-7.

Gill's Exposition on 1 Corinthians 12:9

To another faith by the same Spirit,.... Not the grace of faith, which is common to all believers, though given by the same Spirit: but rather the doctrine of faith, and ability to preach it, and

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 1 Corinthians 12:9

To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; Faith - not of doctrines, but confidence in God, by the impulse of His Spirit, that He would enable them to

Matthew Poole's Commentary on 1 Corinthians 12:9

To another, he saith, is given faith: by which cannot be understood that faith which is common to all Christians, for he is speaking of such gifts as were given to some Christians, not to all; he must therefore mean, either a faith of miracles, that is, a persuasion that God would work a miracle in this or that case, or a great knowledge in the matters of faith, or a great confidence and boldness in the discharge of their office. To another the gifts of healing, of healing diseases miraculously, without the application of ordinary rational medicines.

Trapp's Commentary on 1 Corinthians 12:9

9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; Ver. 9. To another faith] The faith of miracles, which a man may have, and yet miscarry, 1 Corinthians 13:2. So doth not any one that hath the faith of God’ s elect; that fails not, Luke 22:32. Some say the apostle here meaneth historical faith; and this seems the more probable, because he speaketh of the working of miracles, 1 Corinthians 12:10.

Ellicott's Commentary on 1 Corinthians 12:9

(9) Faith.—This cannot mean the faith which is necessary to salvation, for that belongs to all Christians; but such faith as is mentioned in Matthew 17:20, Luke 17:6, the results of such a faith being here enlarged, and not embracing miracles alone, but prophecy and the discerning of spirits. In the Greek “the word of wisdom” is said to be given by the Spirit; “the word of knowledge “according to the Spirit; and “the faith and gift of healing” in the Spirit. By the use of this variety of expression the Apostle probably means to indicate the variety of methods of operation of the Spirit, as well as the diversity of the gifts which He lavishes.

Cambridge Bible on 1 Corinthians 12:9

9. faith] Not the rudimentary principle which was the essential condition of all Christian life, but that higher realization of things Divine which enables a man to remove mountains (St Matthew 17:20; ch. 1 Corinthians 13:2).the gifts of healing] As in St Mark 16:18; Acts 3:7-8; Acts 5:15-16; Acts 9:34; Acts 19:11-12; St James 5:14-15.

Barnes' Notes on 1 Corinthians 12:9
