Spiritual gifts are indeed works and effects, but not properly fruits of the Spirit, nor are anywhere so called. They are effects of his operation upon men, not fruits of his working in them; and, therefore, many receive these gifts who never receive the Spirit as to the principal end for which he is promised. They receive him not to sanctify and make them temples to God; though metonymically, with respect to his outward effects, they may be said to be made partakers of him. This renders them of a different nature and kind from saving graces.
