For ye see by your calling, brethren, that not many wise men according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble are called:

for if ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet ye have not many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you by the gospel.

For though there be some that are called Gods, whether in heaven or on earth, (as there are among the heathen gods many,

and lords many,) yet to us there is but one God the Father, from whom are all things, and we in Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by Him.

For the bread is one, and we though many are one body; for we all partake of that one bread.

Even as I also endeavour to please all men in all things, not seeking my own advantage, but that of many, that they may be saved.

For this many among you are weak and infirm, and several are fallen asleep.

For as the body is one, and hath many members; but all the parts of this one body, though many, are but one body:

for the body is not one member, but many.

whereas now there are many members, yet but one body.

have all miraculous powers? have all the gifts of healing? do all speak many languages? do all interpret? but ye are all zealous for the best gifts.

Now, my brethren, if I come to you speaking with many tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I speak intelligibly to you of revelation, or knowledge, or prophecy, or doctrine?

There are, it may be, as many kinds of voices in the world as people, and none of them insignificant.

though there are many opposers.
