1<\/sup>NOW concerning spiritual things, my brethren, I would not have you ignorant.<\/span> <\/p>\n 2<\/sup>You know that when you were heathens, you went to dumb idols, according as you were led.<\/span> <\/p>\n 3<\/sup>Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man, speaking by the Spirit of God, saith Anathema to Jesus. And no man can say the Lord Jesus, but by the Holy Ghost.<\/span> <\/p>\n 4<\/sup>Now there are diversities of graces, but the same Spirit;<\/span> <\/p>\n 5<\/sup>And there are diversities of ministries, but the same Lord;<\/span> <\/p>\n 6<\/sup>And there are diversities of operations, but the same God, who worketh all in all.<\/span> <\/p>\n 7<\/sup>And the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man unto profit.<\/span> <\/p>\n 8<\/sup>To one indeed, by the Spirit, is given the word of wisdom: and to another, the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;<\/span> <\/p>\n 9<\/sup>To another, faith in the same spirit; to another, the grace of healing in one Spirit;<\/span> <\/p>\n 10<\/sup>To another, the working of miracles; to another, prophecy; to another, the discerning of spirits; to another, diverse kinds of tongues; to another, interpretation of speeches.<\/span> <\/p>\n 11<\/sup>But all these things one and the same Spirit worketh, dividing to every one according as he will.<\/span> <\/p>\n 12<\/sup>For as the body is one, and hath many members; and all the members of the body, whereas they are many, yet are one body, so also is Christ.<\/span> <\/p>\n 13<\/sup>For in one Spirit were we all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Gentiles, whether bond or free; and in one Spirit we have all been made to drink.<\/span> <\/p>\n 14<\/sup>For the body also is not one member, but many.<\/span> <\/p>\n 15<\/sup>If the foot should say, because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body ?<\/span> <\/p>\n 16<\/sup>And if the ear should say, because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body ?<\/span> <\/p>\n 17<\/sup>If the whole body were the eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?<\/span> <\/p>\n 18<\/sup>But now God hath set the members every one of them in the body as it hath pleased him.<\/span> <\/p>\n 19<\/sup>And if they all were one member, where would be the body?<\/span> <\/p>\n 20<\/sup>But now there are many members indeed, yet one body.<\/span> <\/p>\n 21<\/sup>And the eye cannot say to the hand: I need not thy help; nor again the head to the feet: I have no need of you.<\/span> <\/p>\n 22<\/sup>Yea, much more those that seem to be the more feeble members of the body, are more necessary.<\/span> <\/p>\n 23<\/sup>And such as we think to be the less honourable members of the body, about these we put more abundant honour; and those that are our uncomely parts, have more abundant comeliness.<\/span> <\/p>\n 24<\/sup>But our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, giving to that which wanted the more abundant honour,<\/span> <\/p>\n 25<\/sup>That there might be no schism in the body; but the members might be mutually careful one for another.<\/span> <\/p>\n 26<\/sup>And if one member suffer any thing, all the members suffer with it; or if one member glory, all the members rejoice with it.<\/span> <\/p>\n 27<\/sup>Now you are the body of Christ, and members of member.<\/span> <\/p>\n 28<\/sup>And God indeed hath set some in the church; first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly doctors; after that miracles; then the graces of healing, helps, governments, kinds of tongues, interpretations of speeches.<\/span> <\/p>\n 29<\/sup>Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all doctors?<\/span> <\/p>\n 30<\/sup>Are all workers of miracles? Have all the grace of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?<\/span> <\/p>\n 31<\/sup>But be zealous for the better gifts. And I shew unto you yet a more excellent way.<\/span> <\/p>\n
