1 Corinthians 12:1
But concerning spiritual manifestations , brethren, I do not wish you to be ignorant.
1 Corinthians 12:2
Ye know that when ye were of the nations ye were led away to dumb idols, in whatever way ye might be led.
1 Corinthians 12:3
I give you therefore to know, that no one, speaking in the power of the Spirit of God, says, Curse on Jesus; and no one can say, Lord Jesus, unless in the power of the Holy Spirit.
1 Corinthians 12:4
But there are distinctions of gifts, but the same Spirit;
1 Corinthians 12:5
and there are distinctions of services, and the same Lord;
1 Corinthians 12:6
and there are distinctions of operations, but the same God who operates all things in all.
1 Corinthians 12:7
But to each the manifestation of the Spirit is given for profit.
1 Corinthians 12:8
For to one, by the Spirit, is given the word of wisdom; and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;
1 Corinthians 12:9
and to a different one faith, in the power of the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healing in the power of the same Spirit;
1 Corinthians 12:10
and to another operations of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discerning of spirits; and to a different one kinds of tongues; and to another interpretation of tongues.
1 Corinthians 12:11
But all these things operates the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each in particular according as he pleases.
1 Corinthians 12:12
For even as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of the body, being many, are one body, so also is the Christ.
1 Corinthians 12:13
For also in the power of one Spirit *we* have all been baptised into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bondmen or free, and have all been given to drink of one Spirit.
1 Corinthians 12:14
For also the body is not one member but many.
1 Corinthians 12:15
If the foot say, Because I am not a hand I am not of the body, is it on account of this not indeed of the body?
1 Corinthians 12:16
And if the ear say, Because I am not an eye I am not of the body, is it on account of this not indeed of the body?
1 Corinthians 12:17
If the whole body were an eye, where the hearing? if all hearing, where the smelling?
1 Corinthians 12:18
But now God has set the members, each one of them in the body, according as it has pleased him .
1 Corinthians 12:19
But if all were one member, where the body?
1 Corinthians 12:20
But now the members are many, and the body one.
1 Corinthians 12:21
The eye cannot say to the hand, I have not need of thee; or again, the head to the feet, I have not need of you.
1 Corinthians 12:22
But much rather, the members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary;
1 Corinthians 12:23
and those parts of the body which we esteem to be the more void of honour, these we clothe with more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness;
1 Corinthians 12:24
but our comely parts have not need. But God has tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to the part that lacked;
1 Corinthians 12:25
that there might be no division in the body, but that the members might have the same concern one for another.
1 Corinthians 12:26
And if one member suffer, all the members suffer with it ; and if one member be glorified, all the members rejoice with it .
1 Corinthians 12:27
Now *ye* are Christ's body, and members in particular.
1 Corinthians 12:28
And God has set certain in the assembly: first, apostles; secondly, prophets; thirdly, teachers; then miraculous powers; then gifts of healings; helps; governments; kinds of tongues.
1 Corinthians 12:29
Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all in possession of miraculous powers?
1 Corinthians 12:30
have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?
1 Corinthians 12:31
But desire earnestly the greater gifts, and yet shew I unto you a way of more surpassing excellence.
