Matthew Henry made the following points in his bible commentary:
- No man can call Christ Lord, with believing dependence upon him, unless that faith is wrought by the Holy Ghost, or Holy Spirit.
Note: Wrought means to have an effect or influence, as on a person or on the mind or feelings of a person.
- No man could believe with his heart, or prove by a miracle, that Jesus was Christ, unless by the Holy Ghost, or Holy Spirit.
- There are various gifts...but all proceed from one God, one Lord, one Spirit; that is, from the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, the origin of all spiritual blessings.
- No man has them (various gifts) merely for himself.
- The more he profits others, the more will they turn to his own account.
