Of the Use and Purpose of Spiritual Gifts.

All spiritual gifts from God:

1 Corinthians 12:1-6

1 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.

2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.

3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed:a and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.

4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

5 And there are differences of administrations,b but the same Lord.

6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.
