What about
1 Corinthians 12:3 New English Translation
3 So I want you to understand that no one speaking by the Spirit of God says, “Jesus is cursed,” and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit.
What about …
Looking at the “spiritual-gifts” like speech and knowledge
Are not these really an outward factor, but what about within?
Is it here where reality really measures the conditions for the Eternal?
And secures for you a place so secure to where others might have been
Is not real advancement measured by steady growth in spirit?
Is it not intuition that gauges any progress at its best?
Is it not exercising issues of life’s appearance so measuring?
Is that an intellectual mindset and the expansion of the flesh
Maturity in Christ is like a constant hunger
It takes all of the Spirit to bring that to godliness
It cannot be compared with what the soul produces
For that has been declared as religiousness
I cannot help others unless I commune with God
If I can’t have that ability what would be the use?
I can have many ideas but all would be futility
For what would be the utility if the Spirit is not there
