1 Corinthians 12
1. Spiritual gifts,
4. are diverse,
7. yet to profit all.
8. And to that end are diversely bestowed;
12. as the members of a natural body tend all to the mutual decency,
22. service,
26. and helpfulness of the same body;
27. so we should do for one another, to make up the body of Christ.














to another faith
The Greek word for "faith" here is "πίστις" (pistis), which signifies a deep trust and confidence in God. In the context of spiritual gifts, this faith is not the saving faith common to all believers but a special endowment of faith that enables a believer to trust God for extraordinary things. Historically, this gift has been seen in figures like George Müller, who trusted God for the provision of orphanages without soliciting funds. This faith is a supernatural assurance that God will act, often in miraculous ways, and is given to certain individuals for the edification of the church.

by the same Spirit
The phrase emphasizes the unity and source of all spiritual gifts. The Holy Spirit, referred to here as "πνεῦμα" (pneuma), is the divine agent who distributes these gifts according to His will. This underscores the Trinitarian belief that the Spirit is fully God and actively involved in the life of the church. The repetition of "the same Spirit" throughout this passage highlights the unity and diversity within the body of Christ, as all gifts, though varied, originate from the same divine source.

to another gifts of healing
The term "gifts of healing" comes from the Greek "χαρίσματα ἰαμάτων" (charismata iamaton). "Charismata" refers to grace-given gifts, emphasizing that these abilities are not earned but bestowed by God's grace. "Iamaton" relates to healing, indicating a supernatural ability to restore health. Historically, the early church witnessed many healings, as recorded in Acts, and this gift continues to be a testimony to God's power and compassion. It serves as a sign of the Kingdom of God breaking into the present world, offering a foretaste of the complete healing and restoration to come.

by that one Spirit
This phrase reiterates the source of the gifts, emphasizing the singularity and sovereignty of the Holy Spirit in distributing gifts. The use of "that one Spirit" (τοῦ ἑνὸς πνεύματος) reinforces the idea that while the manifestations of the Spirit are diverse, they are all orchestrated by the same divine person. This unity in diversity is crucial for maintaining harmony within the church, as it prevents pride and division by reminding believers that all gifts are given for the common good and are not a result of personal merit.

(9) Faith.--This cannot mean the faith which is necessary to salvation, for that belongs to all Christians; but such faith as is mentioned in Matthew 17:20, Luke 17:6, the results of such a faith being here enlarged, and not embracing miracles alone, but prophecy and the discerning of spirits. In the Greek "the word of wisdom" is said to be given by the Spirit; "the word of knowledge "according to the Spirit; and "the faith and gift of healing" in the Spirit. By the use of this variety of expression the Apostle probably means to indicate the variety of methods of operation of the Spirit, as well as the diversity of the gifts which He lavishes.

Verse 9. - To another. Various attempts have been made to classify the gifts thus enumerated, as:

1. Intellectual.

(1) The word of wisdom;

(2) the word of knowledge. . . .
