1 Corinthians 12:5

Jesus
Serving othersThe TrinityJesus Christ

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.

4 There are different gifts, but the same Spirit.

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.

7 Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good.
