1 Corinthians 12:4-12

4There are different kinds of spiritual gifts, but the same Spirit is the source of them all.

5There are different kinds of service, but we serve the same Lord.

6God works in different ways, but it is the same God who does the work in all of us.

7A spiritual gift is given to each of us so we can help each other.

8To one person the Spirit gives the ability to give wise advice; to another the same Spirit gives a message of special knowledge.

9The same Spirit gives great faith to another, and to someone else the one Spirit gives the gift of healing.

10He gives one person the power to perform miracles, and another the ability to prophesy. He gives someone else the ability to discern whether a message is from the Spirit of God or from another spirit. Still another person is given the ability to speak in unknown languages, while another is given the ability to interpret what is being said.

11It is the one and only Spirit who distributes all these gifts. He alone decides which gift each person should have.

12The human body has many parts, but the many parts make up one whole body. So it is with the body of Christ.
