the same Spirit;
012:005 various forms of official service, and yet one and the same Lord;
012:006 diversities in work, and yet one and the same God--He who in
each person brings about the whole result.
012:007 But to each of us a manifestation of the Spirit has been
granted for the common good.
012:008 To one the utterance of wisdom has been granted through the Spirit;
to another the utterance of knowledge in accordance with
the will of the same Spirit;
012:009 to a third man, by means of the same Spirit, special faith;
to another various gifts of healing, by means of the one Spirit;
012:010 to another the exercise of miraculous powers; to another
the gift of prophecy; to another the power of discriminating
between prophetic utterances; to another varieties of the gift
of `tongues;' to another the interpretation of tongues.
012:011 But these results are all brought about by one and the same Spirit,
who bestows His gifts upon each of us in accordance with
His own will.
012:012 For just as the human body is one and yet has many parts,
and all its parts, many as they are, constitute but one body,
so it is with the Church of Christ.
012:013 For, in fact, in one Spirit all of us--whether we are Jews
or Gentiles, slaves or free men--were baptized to form but one body;
and we were all nourished by that one Spirit.
012:014 For the human body does not consist of one part, but of many.
012:015 Were the foot to say, "Because I am not a hand I am not a part
of the body," that would not make it any the less a part
of the body.
012:016 Or were the ear to say, "Because I am not an eye, I am not
a part of the body," that would not make it any the less
