Introduction
The apostle proceeds to the question of the Corinthians concerning spiritual gifts, 1 Corinthians 12:1 . He calls to their remembrance their former state, and how they were brought out of it, 1 Corinthians 12:2 , 1 Corinthians 12:3 . Shows that there are diversities of gifts which proceed from the Spirit, 1 Corinthians 12:4 . Diversities of administrations which proceed from the Lord Jesus, 1 Corinthians 12:5 . And diversities of operations which proceed from God, 1 Corinthians 12:6 . What these gifts are, and how they are dispensed, 1 Corinthians 12:7-11 . Christ is the Head, and the Church his members; and this is pointed out under the similitude of the human body, 1 Corinthians 12:12 , 1 Corinthians 12:13 . The relation which the members of the body have to each other; and how necessary their mutual support, 1 Corinthians 12:14-26 . The members in the Church, or spiritual body, and their respective offices, 1 Corinthians 12:27-30 . We should earnestly covet the best gifts, 1 Corinthians 12:31 .
