Concerning Spiritual Gifts, Just as a body, though one, has many parts

 1 Corinthians 12:1-30

Therefore I want you to know 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.

There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work.

All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines.

Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. 

Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it. And God has placed in the church first of all apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, of helping, of guidance, and of different kinds of tongues.

Why?

From the words we can identify came from the Holy Spirit or from men or Satan.

There are apostles, prophets, teachers, then miracles, next gifts of healing, helping, guidance, and tongues.

Let us be the first ones, apostles.

How?

To be a good Christian, let me be an apostle of Christ. This is the most difficult position and job.
