It is only God’s Spirit who enables people to say that Jesus is Lord.

12  1 Corinthians 12:1-3

12 Now, my fellow believers, I will answer your questions about the things God’s Spirit enables believers to do. I want you to know clearly [LIT] about these things. 2 You know that before you became Christians, various things led you to worship idols, which are unable to tell you any of God’s message. 3 So the first thing that I will tell you now is that it is not the Spirit of God who would cause anyone to say, “Jesus deserved to die,” and that the Holy Spirit is the only one who can enable anyone to say, “Jesus is truly the Lord.”
