| 12:1 |
Now concerning spiritual [gifts], brethren, I would not have you ignorant.
|
| 12:2 |
Ye know that when ye were Gentiles [ye were] led away unto those dumb idols, howsoever ye might led.
|
| 12:3 |
Wherefore I make known unto you, that no man speaking in the Spirit of God saith, Jesus is anathema; and no man can say, Jesus is Lord, but in the Holy Spirit.
|
| 12:4 |
Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
|
| 12:5 |
And there are diversities of ministrations, and the same Lord.
|
| 12:6 |
And there are diversities of workings, but the same God, who worketh all things in all.
|
| 12:7 |
But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit to profit withal.
|
| 12:8 |
For to one is given through the Spirit the word of wisdom; and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit:
|
| 12:9 |
to another faith, in the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, in the one Spirit;
|
| 12:10 |
and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discernings of spirits; to another [divers] kinds of tongues; and to another the interpretation of tongues:
|
| 12:11 |
but all these worketh the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each one severally even as he will.
|
| 12:12 |
For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body; so also is Christ.
|
| 12:13 |
For in one Spirit were we all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free; and were all made to drink of one Spirit.
|
| 12:14 |
For the body is not one member, but many.
|
| 12:15 |
If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; it is not therefore not of the body.
|
| 12:16 |
And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; it is not therefore not of the body.
|
| 12:17 |
If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?
|
| 12:18 |
But now hath God set the members each one of them in the body, even as it pleased him.
|
| 12:19 |
And if they were all one member, where were the body?
|
| 12:20 |
But now they are many members, but one body.
|
| 12:21 |
And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of thee: or again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
|
| 12:22 |
Nay, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be more feeble are necessary:
|
| 12:23 |
and those [parts] of the body, which we think to be less honorable, upon these we bestow more abundant honor; and our uncomely [parts] have more abundant comeliness;
|
| 12:24 |
whereas our comely [parts] have no need: but God tempered the body together, giving more abundant honor to that [part] which lacked;
|
| 12:25 |
that there should be no schism in the body; but [that] the members should have the same care one for another.
|
| 12:26 |
And whether one member suffereth, all the members suffer with it; or [one] member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
|
| 12:27 |
Now ye are the body of Christ, and severally members thereof.
|
| 12:28 |
And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, [divers] kinds of tongues.
|
| 12:29 |
Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all [workers of] miracles?
|
| 12:30 |
have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?
|
| 12:31 |
But desire earnestly the greater gifts. And moreover a most excellent way show I unto you.
