Concerning Spiritual Gifts: God Distributes a Variety of Gifts For Our Mutual Benefit
12 Now concerning the spiritual gifts, brothers, I do not want you to be unaware. 2 You know that when you were Gentiles[a], you were being led-away[b] to the speechless idols, however[c] you were being led. 3 Therefore I make-known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God is saying “Jesus is[d] accursed”. And no one is able to say “Jesus is Lord” except by the Holy Spirit.
