1 Corinthians 12:12-14
English Standard Version
One Body with Many Members
12 For just as (A)the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, (B)so it is with Christ. 13 For (C)in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—(D)Jews or Greeks, slaves[a] or free—and (E)all were made to drink of one Spirit.
14 For the body does not consist of one member but of many.

Unity in the Midst of Diversity
12 For just as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of the body, although they[a] are many, are one body, thus also Christ. 13 For by[b] one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free persons, and all were made to drink one Spirit. 14 For the body is not one member, but many.
