1 Cor 12:4-6 "There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work."
Different Gifts. All from above (James 1:17)
Different Service. Reflecting His Service (John 13:14-15)
Different Works. All God's calling (Eph 4:1,11-12)
So there is no point in comparing yourself, your talents, your dreams, your blessings, your works, your deeds, to others'. They will be different, but all from God so that no one can boast in themselves. And even in these differences we are not divided, but brought together as a body united by Christ. United by one Spirit, one faith, one Lord, one baptism, one God.
But I do have a question: is there significance to how the trinity is divided having different things assigned to them in these verses?
