1 Corinthians 12:4-27

1 Corinthians 12:4-27

[4] Now  diversities  of gifts,  but  the same  Spirit.  [5] And  differences  of administrations,  but  the same  Lord.  [6] And  diversities  of operations,  but  the same  God  which  worketh  all  in  all.  [7] But  the manifestation  of the Spirit  is given  to every man  to  profit withal.  [8] For  to one  is given  by  the Spirit  the word  of wisdom;  to another  the word  of knowledge  by  the same  Spirit;  [9] To another  faith  by  the same  Spirit;  to another  the gifts  of healing  by  the same  Spirit;  [10] To another  the working  of miracles;  to another  prophecy;  to another  discerning  of spirits;  to another  divers kinds  of tongues;  to another  the interpretation  of tongues:  [11] But  all  worketh  that one  and  the selfsame  Spirit,  dividing  to every man  severally  as  he will.  [12] For  as  the body  one,  and  hath  many  members,  and  all  the members  of that one  body,  many,  one  body:  so  also  is Christ.  [13] For  by  one  Spirit  all  baptized  into  one  body,  whether  we be Jews  or  Gentiles,  whether  we be bond  or  free;  and  all  made to drink  into  one  Spirit.  [14] For  the body  not  one  member,  but  many.  [15] If  the foot  shall say,  Because  I am  not  the hand,  I am  not  of  the body;  it therefore  of  the body?  [16] And  if  the ear  shall say,  Because  I am  not  the eye,  I am  not  of  the body;  it therefore  of  the body?  [17] If  the whole  body  were an eye,  where  were the hearing?  If  the whole  were hearing,  where  were the smelling?  [18] But  now  God  set  the members  every  one  of them  in  the body,  as  it hath pleased him.  [19] And  if  all  one  member,  where  were the body?  [20] But  now  are they many  members,  yet but  one  body.  [21] And  the eye  cannot  say  unto the hand,  I have  no  need  nor  again  the head  to the feet,  I have  no  need  [22] Nay,  much  more  those members  of the body,  which seem  to be  more feeble,  necessary:  [23] And  those  members of the body,  which we think  less honourable,  we bestow  honour;  and  uncomely  parts have  comeliness.  [24] For  comely  parts have  no  need:  but  God  the body  together,  having given  honour  to that part which lacked:  [25] schism  in  the body;  but  that the members  the same  care  one for  another.  [26] And  whether  one  member  suffer,  all  the members  suffer with it;  or  one  member  be honoured,  all  the members  rejoice with it.  [27] Now  the body  of Christ,  and  members  in  particular.
