1 Corinthians 12:1-14
1. What did Paul want us to know?
Paul want us not to be ignorant. When we were pagans, somehow or other we were influenced and led astray to mute idols. Therefore Paul tells us that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, "Jesus be cursed," and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except by the Holy Spirit.
2. What is common to us all and what is different?
The body of Christ is a unit that is common to us all What is different is that we made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit.
