1Co 12:1 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you
ignorant.
1Co 12:2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols,
even as ye were led.
1Co 12:3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the
Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is
the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.
1Co 12:4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
1Co 12:5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.
1Co 12:6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God
which worketh all in all.
1Co 12:7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit
withal.
1Co 12:8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another
the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
1Co 12:9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of
healing by the same Spirit;
1Co 12:10 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:
1Co 12:11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing
to every man severally as he will.
1Co 12:12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members
of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.
1Co 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be
Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to
drink into one Spirit.
1Co 12:14 For the body is not one member, but many.
1Co 12:15 If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the
body; is it therefore not of the body?
1Co 12:16 And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of
the body; is it therefore not of the body?
1Co 12:17 If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the
whole were hearing, where were the smelling?
1Co 12:18 But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as
it hath pleased him.
1Co 12:19 And if they were all one member, where were the body?
1Co 12:20 But now are they many members, yet but one body.
1Co 12:21 And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor
again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
1Co 12:22 Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more
feeble, are necessary:
1Co 12:23 And those members of the body, which we think to be less
honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely
parts have more abundant comeliness.
1Co 12:24 For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body
together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked:
1Co 12:25 That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members
should have the same care one for another.
1Co 12:26 And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or
one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.
1Co 12:27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
1Co 12:28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily
prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings,
helps, governments, diversities of tongues.
1Co 12:29 Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all
workers of miracles?
1Co 12:30 Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all
interpret?
1Co 12:31 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more
excellent way.
