1 Corinthians 12:13-15
1599 Geneva Bible
13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into [a]one body, whether we be Jews, or Grecians, whether we be bond, or free, and have been all made to [b]drink into one Spirit.
14 [c]For the body also is not one member, but many.
15 [d]If the foot would say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body, is it therefore not of the body?

- 1 Corinthians 12:13 To become one body with Christ.
- 1 Corinthians 12:13 By one quickening drink of the Lord’s blood, we are made partakers of his only Spirit.
- 1 Corinthians 12:14 He amplifieth that which followed of the similitudes, as if he should say, The unity of the body is not only not left by this diversity of members, but also it could not be a body, if it did not consist of many, and those were divers members.
- 1 Corinthians 12:15 Now he buildeth his doctrine upon the foundations which he had laid: and first of all he continueth in his purposed similitude, and afterward he goeth to the matter barely and simply. And first of all he speaketh unto them which would have separated themselves from those whom they envied, because they had not such excellent gifts as they: now this is, saith he, as if the foot should say it were not of the body, because it is not the hand: or the ear, because it is not the eye. Therefore all parts ought rather to defend the unity of the body, being coupled together to serve one the other.
