1 Corinthians 12:11

As he will] Notice the personality and the freedom of the Spirit.

12-31. The Church is like the human body. It consists of many members, with different functions, but all intended to promote the good of the whole. Thus there is no room for selfish display, envy of others' gifts, contempt of one's own: cp. Romans 12:4; Ephesians 4:15 and the Roman fable of the belly and the members.

12, 13. Stevens paraphrases thus: 'The unity of those who possess the various gifts is analogous to the unity of the body; they are all one in Christ. Their baptism into Christ signifies their unity in Him, whatever their nationality or social condition.'
