The descriptions “accursed,” and “Lord,” are polar opposites. Something accursed is
pledged for destruction; Lord, on the other hand, means absolute ownership,
pledged for usefulness. By His resurrection, Jesus proved that those He owns
will not suffer destruction; the seal of the indwelling Holy Spirit will help
the latter be realized. “Therefore
I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God says, ‘Jesus is accursed’; and no one can say, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ except by the Holy Spirit.
1 Corinthians 12:3 (NASV)
