Chap. XII.
noteThey must not make their diuersitie of Giftes an occasion of Schisme, considering
that al are of one Holy Ghost, and for the profit of the one body of Christ vvhich
is the Church: 12 Vvhich also could not be a body, vvithout such varietie
of members. 12 Therfore neither they that haue the inferiour giftes, must be
discontent, seing it is Gods distribution: nor they that haue the greater, contemne
the other, considering they are no lesse necessarie: 25 but al in al ioyne together,
28. and euery one knovv his ovvne place.
1 noteAnd concerning spiritual things, I vvil not
haue you ignor&abar;t, brethren.
2 You know
that vvhen you vvere heathen, you vvent
to dumme Idols according as you vvere
ledde.
3 Therfore I doe you to vnderstand
that no m&abar; speaking in the Spirit of God,
faith anáthema to Iesvs. And no man
can say, Our Lord Iesvs: but in the holy Ghost.
-- --
4 And there are diuisions of graces, but one Spirit.
5 And
there are diuisions of ministrations: but one Lord.
6 And
there are diuisions of operations, but one God, vvhich vvorketh
al in al.
7 And the manifestation of the Spirit is giuen
vnto euery one to profit.
8 To one certes by the Spirit is giuen
note the vvord of vvisedom: and to an other, the vvord of
knovvledge according to the same Spirit:
9 to an other,
09Q1130faith in the same Spirit: to an other, the grace of doing cures
in one Spirit:
10 to an other, the vvorking of miracles: to
an other, prophecie: to an other, discerning of spirites: to an
other, kindes of tonges: to an other, interpretation of languages.
11 And al these things vvorketh one and the same
Spirit, diuiding to euery one according as he vvil. &cross4;
12 For note as the body is one, and hath many members, and
al the members of the body vvhereas they be many, yet are
note one body: so also Christ.
13 For in one Spirit vvere vve
al baptized into note one, vvhether Ievves, or Gentiles, or bondmen,
or free: and in one Spirit vve vvere al made to drinke.
14 For the body also is not one member, but many.
15 09Q1131If
the foote should say, because I am not the hand, I am not of
the body: is it therfore not of the body?
16 And if the eare
should say, because I am not the eie, I am not of the body:
is he therfore not of the body?
17 If the vvhole body vvere
the eie: vvhere is the hearing? If the vvhole vvere the hearing:
vvhere is the smelling?
18 But novv God hath set
the members, euery one of them in the body as he vvould.
19 And if al vvere one member, vvhere vvere the body?
20 But
novv there are many members in deede, yet one body. And
the eie can not say to the hand: I neede not thy helpe. or
againe the head to the feete, You are not necessarie for me.
21 But much more those that seeme to be the more vveake
members of the body, are more necessarie:
22 and such as
vve thinke to be the baser members of the body, vpon them
vve put more aboundant honour: and those that are our vnhonest
partes, haue more aboundant honestie.
23 And our
honest partes neede nothing: but God hath tempered the
body, giuing to it that vvanted, the more aboundant honour,
24 that there might be no09Q1132schisme in the body, but the members
together might be careful one for an other.
25 And if
one member suffer any thing, al the members suffer vvith it.
or if one member do glorie, al the members reioyce vvith it.
-- --
26 And you are the body of Christ, and members of member.
27 And note some verily God hath set in the Church first Apostles,
secondly prophets, thirdly doctors, next miracles, th&ebar;
the graces of doing cures, helpes, gouernements, kindes of
tonges.
28 Are al Apostles? are al prophets? are al doctors?
29 noteare al miracles? haue al the grace of doing cures? do al
speake vvith tonges? do al interpret?
30 But pursue the better
giftes. And yet I shevv you a more excellent vvay.
