1 Corinthians 12:12-31 [#22] - a podcast by Grace Bible Church - Hollidaysburg

A spiritual gift is not a natural talent but one’s gift works in concert with one’s talents. The ability to sing on key is not a spiritual gift but a natural talent. The ministry of the Holy Spirit brings unity to the body of Christ. The Corinthians were mistaking uniformity for unity.

Diversity is essential to unity in a local congregation of believers.

Paul uses the metaphor of the human body to illustrate this truth to the Christians at Corinth (12). Many different parts make up a human body, but they do not diminish the body’s basic unity. It is clear that Paul is not giving an anatomy lesson.
