1 Corinthians 12:4

The Holy SpiritFellowship and the churchThe Trinity

2 You know that when you were pagans, you were influenced and led astray to mute idols.

3 Therefore I inform you that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, “Jesus be cursed,” and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit.

There are different gifts, but the same Spirit.

5 There are different ministries, but the same Lord.

6 There are different ways of working, but the same God works all things in all people.
