Expositor's Bible Commentary Commentary 1 Corinthians 12:6

"And there are diversities of workings, but the same God, who worketh all things in all." — 1 Corinthians 12:6 (ASV)

By using the words “service” (GK 1355) and “working” (GK 1920), Paul indicates that such spiritual gifts were useful in serving the Christian community. Here he teaches that the Trinity is involved in administration of these gifts: the Spirit; the Lord; God (cf. 2 Corinthians 13:14; Ephesians 4:3–6).
