2 Corinthians chapter 3, vs 17

… the Lord … is a … Spirit … and … where … the … Spirit of the Lord is … there is freedom …

1 Corinthians chapter 2, vs 14

… all that comes to us from the Spirit of God … is … received and discerned in us … only by the Spirit …

1 Corinthians chapter 6, vs 19

… your body … is the temple of the Holy Spirit … the Spirit of God … Who is in you … and … Whom you received from God … you are not your own … you are a child of God … redeemed by Jesus Christ …

… so … the Spirit of God … is active in each of us … and … also in the Christian church through the … Gifts of the Spirit …

1 Corinthians chapter 12, vs 4 - 6                    - there are different kinds of gifts … but the same Spirit

- there are different kinds of service … but the same Lord

- there are different kinds of working … but the same God

- God works all of them … in all  people … 

… so … the Greek word translated here as … gifts … has a more literal meaning of … favor … or … it is even closer to the meaning of our English word … gratuity … the Greek word translated here as … working … has a more literal meaning of … active efficient work with an effective outcome …
