Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)

⁴ There are different types of spiritual gifts, but the same spirit; ⁵ there are different types of service, but the same Lord; ⁶ and there are different types of activity, but it is the same God who operates all of them in everyone. ⁷ The point of the spirit being revealed in each one is so that all may benefit. ⁸ One person is given a word of wisdom through the spirit; another, a word of knowledge by the same spirit; ⁹ another, faith through the same spirit; another, gifts of healing by the one spirit; ¹⁰ another, the working of mighty deeds; another, prophecy; another, the ability to distinguish spirits; another, various kinds of languages; another, the interpretation of languages. ¹¹ It is the one spirit, the same one, whose work produces all these things, and the spirit gives different gifts to each one in accordance with the spirit’s own wishes.

Many members, one body

¹² Let me explain. Just as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the body, though they are many, are one body, so also is the Messiah. ¹³ For we all were baptized into one body, by one spirit—whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free—and we were all given one spirit to drink.
