^12:1With regard to spiritual gifts,¹ brothers and sisters,² I do not want you to be uninformed.³^12:2You know that when you were pagans you were often led astray by speechless idols, however you were led. ^12:3So I want you to understand that no one speaking by the Spirit of God says, “Jesus is cursed,” and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit.

^12:4Now there are different gifts, but the same Spirit. ^12:5And there are different ministries, but the same Lord. ^12:6And there are different results, but the same God who produces all of them in everyone. ^12:7To each person the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the benefit of all. ^12:8For one person is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, and another the message of knowledge according to the same Spirit, ^12:9to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, ^12:10to another performance of miracles, to another prophecy, and to another discernment of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, and to another the interpretation of tongues. ^12:11It is one and the same Spirit, distributing as he decides to each person, who produces all these things.

Different Members in One Body

^12:12For just as the body is one and yet has many members, and all the members of the body—though many—are one body, so too is Christ. ^12:13For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body. Whether Jews or Greeks or slaves⁴ or free, we were all made to drink of the one Spirit.
