SCRIPTURE

"for this cause ought the woman to have [a sign of] authority on her head, because of the angels. Nevertheless, neither is the woman without the man, nor the man without the woman, in the Lord." — 1 Corinthians 11:10-11 (ASV)

To another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: but all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.

Whatever our gifts as a church, or as individuals, may be, they all come from the very same Spirit. This should tend to promote unity among us. Let us all trace whatever gift we have to the hand that gave it and to the Spirit that worked it. Let us feel that we are like many pipes connected to one fountain. And therefore, since all the good that we convey comes from the one source, let us give all the honor and glory for it to the Spirit of God from whom it comes.
