7. To each person the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the benefit of all.
8. For one person is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, and another the message of knowledge according to the same Spirit,
9. to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit,
10. to 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.
11. It is one and the same Spirit, distributing as he decides to each person, who produces all these things.
12. For 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.
13. For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body. Whether Jews or Greeks or slaves or free, we were all made to drink of the one Spirit.
14. For in fact the body is not a single member, but many.
15. If the foot says, “Since I am not a hand, I am not part of the body,” it does not lose its membership in the body because of that.
16. And if the ear says, “Since I am not an eye, I am not part of the body,” it does not lose its membership in the body because of that.
17. If the whole body were an eye, what part would do the hearing? If the whole were an ear, what part would exercise the sense of smell?
18. But as a matter of fact, God has placed each of the members in the body just as he decided.
19. If they were all the same member, where would the body be?
