70. To which point I will briefly answer
that Spirit is often put for the grace of the Spirit, as the Apostle
also said: “For the Spirit Himself intercedeth for us with
groanings which cannot be uttered;” Rom. viii. 26.

to hear the groanings of the Holy Spirit. Therefore here too God
is worshipped, not in the wickedness of the heart, but in the grace of
the Spirit. “For into a malicious soul wisdom does not
enter,” Wisd. i. 4. because
“no one can call Jesus Lord but in the Holy
Spirit.” 1 Cor. xii. 3. And
immediately he adds: “Now there are diversities of
gifts.” 1 Cor. xii. 4.
