1 Peter4:10
10 As every man hath received the gift , even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
Any gift, office, faculty, or ability, whereby he may be serviceable to the good of others, all which are received of God, 1 Cor. 12.11. Eph. 4.7.
Dispense and Communicate modestly and humbly, not lifting himself up above others upon the account of his Gifts, but remembring he hath received them, and is a Steward to dispense them.
And therefore faithful in distributing his Lord's goods.
By Grace he means the same as by Gift before, and so by manifold Grace, the various Gifts given to them of God, 1 Cor. 12.4, 5, 6.
