Versículos relacionados com 1 Corinthians, 12:Ĭhapter 12 of 1 Corinthians addresses the theme of spiritual gifts and the unity of the body of Christ. But I shall show you a still more excellent way. Strive eagerly for the greatest spiritual gifts. Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak in tongues? Do all interpret?ģ1. Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work mighty deeds?ģ0. Some people God has designated in the church to be, first, apostles second, prophets third, teachers then, mighty deeds then, gifts of healing, assistance, administration, and varieties of tongues.Ģ9. Now you are Christ's body, and individually parts of it.Ģ8. If (one) part suffers, all the parts suffer with it if one part is honored, all the parts share its joy.Ģ7. so that there may be no division in the body, but that the parts may have the same concern for one another.Ģ6. But God has so constructed the body as to give greater honor to a part that is without it,Ģ5. whereas our more presentable parts do not need this. and those parts of the body that we consider less honorable we surround with greater honor, and our less presentable parts are treated with greater propriety,Ģ4. Indeed, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are all the more necessary,Ģ3. The eye cannot say to the hand, "I do not need you," nor again the head to the feet, "I do not need you."Ģ2. But as it is, there are many parts, yet one body.Ģ1. If they were all one part, where would the body be?Ģ0. But as it is, God placed the parts, each one of them, in the body as he intended.ġ9. If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole body were hearing, where would the sense of smell be?ġ8. Or if an ear should say, "Because I am not an eye I do not belong to the body," it does not for this reason belong any less to the body.ġ7. If a foot should say, "Because I am not a hand I do not belong to the body," it does not for this reason belong any less to the body.ġ6. Now the body is not a single part, but many.ġ5. For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, slaves or free persons, and we were all given to drink of one Spirit.ġ4. ![]() As a body is one though it has many parts, and all the parts of the body, though many, are one body, so also Christ.ġ3. ![]() But one and the same Spirit produces all of these, distributing them individually to each person as he wishes.ġ2. to another mighty deeds to another prophecy to another discernment of spirits to another varieties of tongues to another interpretation of tongues.ġ1. to another faith by the same Spirit to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit ġ0. To one is given through the Spirit the expression of wisdom to another the expression of knowledge according to the same Spirit ĩ. To each individual the manifestation of the Spirit is given for some benefit.Ĩ. there are different workings but the same God who produces all of them in everyone.ħ.
