Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God says, “Jesus is accursed”; and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit.
Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit.
And there are varieties of ministries, and the same Lord.

There are varieties of effects, but the same God who works all things in all persons.
But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.
But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all:
For to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, and to another the word of knowledge according to the same Spirit;
for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit,
to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit,
and to another the effecting of miracles, and to another prophecy, and to another the distinguishing of spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, and to another the interpretation of tongues.

For even as the body is one and yet has many members, and all the members of the body, though they are many, are one body, so also is Christ.
Unity and Diversity in One Body
For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ.
For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ.
For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and we were all made to drink of one Spirit.
If the foot says, “Because I am not a hand, I am not a part of the body,” it is not for this reason any the less a part of the body.
If the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body,” is it therefore not of the body?
And if the ear says, “Because I am not an eye, I am not a part of the body,” it is not for this reason any the less a part of the body.
And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body,” is it therefore not of the body?
If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the sense of smell be?
If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?
But now God has placed the members, each one of them, in the body, just as He desired.
But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body just as He pleased.
If they were all one member, where would the body be?

But now there are many members, but one body.
But now indeed there are many members, yet one body.
And the eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you”; or again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.”

On the contrary, it is much truer that the members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary;
No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary.
and those members of the body which we deem less honorable, on these we bestow more abundant honor, and our less presentable members become much more presentable,
And those members of the body which we think to be less honorable, on these we bestow greater honor; and our unpresentable parts have greater modesty,
whereas our more presentable members have no need of it. But God has so composed the body, giving more abundant honor to that member which lacked,
but our presentable parts have no need. But God composed the body, having given greater honor to that part which lacks it,
so that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another.
And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
Now you are Christ’s body, and individually members of it.
Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.
