Now I urge you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree in what you say, that there be no divisions among you, and that you be united with the same understanding and the same conviction.

For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the spirit of the man that is in him? In the same way, no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.

Am I saying this from a human perspective? Doesn’t the law also say the same thing?

In the same way, the Lord has commanded that those who preach the gospel should earn their living by the gospel.

They all ate the same spiritual food,

and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank from a spiritual rock that followed them, and that rock was Christ.

But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, since that is one and the same as having her head shaved.

In the same way, after supper He also took the cup and said, “This cup is the new covenant established by My blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”

Now there are different gifts, but the same Spirit.

There are different ministries, but the same Lord.

And there are different activities, but the same God activates each gift in each person.

to one is given a message of wisdom
through the Spirit,
to another, a message of knowledge
by the same Spirit,

to another, faith by the same Spirit,
to another, gifts of healing by the one Spirit,

But one and the same Spirit is active in all these, distributing to each person as He wills.

And if they were all the same part, where would the body be?

so that there would be no division in the body, but that the members would have the same concern for each other.

In the same way, unless you use your tongue for intelligible speech, how will what is spoken be known? For you will be speaking into the air.

Not all flesh is the same flesh; there is one flesh for humans, another for animals, another for birds, and another for fish.

Now about the collection for the saints: You should do the same as I instructed the Galatian churches.
