1 Corinthians 12:4-11 (ESV)
"4 Truly, there are diverse graces, but the same Spirit.
5 And there are diverse ministries, but the same Lord.
6 And there are diverse works, but the same God, who works everything in everyone.
7 However, the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one toward what is beneficial.
8 Certainly, to one, through the Spirit, is given words of wisdom; but
to another, according to the same Spirit, words of knowledge;
9 to another, in the same Spirit, faith;
to another, in the one Spirit, the gift of healing;
10 to another, miraculous works;
to another, prophecy;
to another, discernment of spirits;
to another, different kinds of languages;
to another, the interpretation of words.
11 But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one according to His will.
12 For just as the body is one, and yet has many parts, so all the parts of the body, though they are many, are only one body. So also is Christ."
