RF CO1 12:1 On Spiritual Gifts.
And I do not wish you, brothers, to be ignorant about spiritual gifts.
RF CO1 12:2 You know that you were heathen, dragged to speechless idols, as if you were captured:
RF CO1 12:3 therefore I inform you that no one speaking with a Divine spirit says, "Curse Jesus;" and no one is able to reply, "Lord Jesus," except by a holy spirit.
RF CO1 12:4 And there are different talents, but the same Spirit;
RF CO1 12:5 and there are different offices through the same Lord;
RF CO1 12:6 and there are different energies, but the same God energizing everything in them all.
RF CO1 12:7 And to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for mutual benefit.
RF CO1 12:8 For to this man, perhaps, is given through the Spirit philosophic reason; but to another, by means of the same Spirit,
RF CO1 12:9 comprehension of thought; and to a different person faith by the same Spirit; while to another gifts of healing by means of the same Spirit;
RF CO1 12:10 and to another a genius for government; while to another eloquence; to another discernment of character; and to another a genius for languages; and to another talent for translating languages.—
RF CO1 12:11 But the same Spirit energizes all these in the individual, distributing to each person as He considers best.
RF CO1 12:12 For although the body is single, yet it has many limbs; but all the many limbs of the body, although individual, are one body: and so is Christ.
RF CO1 12:13 For although individual, we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or freemen; and we are all drinking of one Spirit.
RF CO1 12:14 For indeed the body is not a single organ, but many.
RF CO1 12:15 If the foot should say, "Because I am not the hand, I do not belong to the body"—does it therefore not belong to the body?
RF CO1 12:16 And if the ear should say, "Because I am not the eye, I do not belong to the body"—does it therefore not belong to the body?
RF CO1 12:17 If all the body were as eye, where would be the sense of hearing? If all ear, where would be the sense of smell?
RF CO1 12:18 But now God has placed the limbs, each one of them, in the body with the best adaptation.
RF CO1 12:19 But if the whole were a single organ, where would the body be?
RF CO1 12:20 And now there are certainly many members, but a single body.
RF CO1 12:21 And the eye is not able to say to the hand, "I have no need of you!" nor the head, again, to the feet, "I have no need of you!
RF CO1 12:22 "But, instead, there is absolute necessity for the possession of those organs of the body that are considered the weakest;
RF CO1 12:23 and what might have been considered the least estimable of the body, we surround with supreme honour.
RF CO1 12:24 And our plainest organ has supreme beauty; but our beautiful features have no deficiency, for God has constructed the body, giving supreme honour to the weakest:
RF CO1 12:25 so that there might not be dissension in the body, but rather that, instead, the limbs might mutually attend to each other.
RF CO1 12:26 And, therefore, if a single limb suffers, all the limbs sympathize with it; if a single organ is pleased, all the faculties feel pleasure with it;
RF CO1 12:27 and you are a body for Christ, and participating members.
RF CO1 12:28 And God has thus placed in the church: first, apostles; second, preachers; third, teachers; then men of power; then talent for healing, nursing, governing, and ability for languages.
RF CO1 12:29 All are not apostles, nor all preachers, nor all teachers.
RF CO1 12:30 All are not men of power; all have not a gift for healing; all do not speak languages; all do not translate.
RF CO1 12:31 Be desirous of the best gifts; and yet I can direct you to a much better path.
