Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus [a]accursed, and (A)no one can say that Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit.

(B)There are [b]diversities of gifts, but (C)the same Spirit. (D)There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God (E)who works [c]all in all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: for to one is given (F)the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another (G)the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, (H)to another faith by the same Spirit, to another (I)gifts of healings by [d]the same Spirit, 10 (J)to another the working of miracles, to another (K)prophecy, to another (L)discerning of spirits, to another (M)different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. 11 But one and the same Spirit works all these things, (N)distributing to each one individually (O)as He wills.

Therefore I want you to understand that (A)no one speaking in the Spirit of God ever says “Jesus is (B)accursed!” and (C)no one can say “Jesus is Lord” except in the Holy Spirit.

Serve God with Spiritual Gifts

For I say, (A)through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, (B)not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt (C)to each one a measure of faith. For (D)as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function, so (E)we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another. Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is (F)given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, let us (G)prophesy in proportion to our faith; or ministry, let us use it in our ministering; (H)he who teaches, in teaching; (I)he who exhorts, in exhortation; (J)he who gives, with liberality; (K)he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, (L)with cheerfulness.

Gifts of Grace

For (A)by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you (B)not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, (C)each according to (D)the measure of faith that God has assigned. For (E)as in one body we have many members,[a] and the members do not all have the same function, so we, (F)though many, (G)are one body in Christ, and individually (H)members one of another. (I)Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if (J)prophecy, (K)in proportion to our faith; if (L)service, in our serving; the one who teaches, in his teaching; the one who exhorts, in his exhortation; the one who contributes, in generosity; (M)the one who leads,[b] with zeal; the one who does acts of mercy, with (N)cheerfulness.

For through (A)the grace given to me I say to everyone among you (B)not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has allotted to (C)each a measure of faith. For (D)just as we have many parts in one body and all [a]the body’s parts do not have the same function, so we, (E)who are many, are (F)one body in Christ, and individually parts of one another. However, since we have gifts that (G)differ according to the grace given to us, each of us is to use them properly: if (H)prophecy, [b]in proportion to one’s faith; if [c](I)service, in the act of serving; or the one who (J)teaches, in the act of teaching; or the one who [d](K)exhorts, in the work of [e]exhortation; the one who gives, with [f](L)generosity; (M)the one who [g]is in leadership, with diligence; the one who shows mercy, with (N)cheerfulness.

Spiritual Gifts

But (A)to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift. Therefore He says:

(B)“When He ascended on high,
He led captivity captive,
And gave gifts to men.”

(C)(Now this, “He ascended”—what does it mean but that He also [a]first descended into the lower parts of the earth? 10 He who descended is also the One (D)who ascended far above all the heavens, (E)that He might fill all things.)

11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,
