“Therefore you do not lack any spiritual gift as you eagerly wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed” (1 Cor. 1:7, NIV). 

When Paul here refers to “spiritual gift” (Gk. charisma), he is speaking of God’s grace (Gk. charis) which comes by means of his Spirit. The relationship between charisma and waiting for the eschatological revelation of Christ Jesus is generally straightforward: God sustains our messianic hopes “to the end” (v. 8) by means of spiritual gifts. ...Paul simply wants to establish their faith in the death of the Messiah (cf. v. 18, 23, 30), “so that you will be blameless on the Day of our Lord Jesus the Messiah (1:8, ISV). The Spirit is given to affirm both of these realities. - John P. Harrigan
