(§ 2.) 1 COR. 12. 7, 8, 9, 10, 11. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every Man to profit ⟨p. 164⟩withal. For to one is given by the Spirit the word of Wisdom; to another the word of Knowledge by the same Spirit; to another Faith by the same Spirit; to another the Gifts of Healing by the same Spirit; to another the working of Miracles; to another Prophecy; to another discerning of Spirits; to another divers kinds of Tongues; to another the Interpretation of Tongues: But all these worketh that one and self-same Spirit; dividing to every one severally as he will. The general Concernments of this passage in the Apostle were declared, and the context opened, at the beginning of our Discourse on this subject. I shall only now consider the especial Spiritual Gifts that are here enumerated by the Apostle, which are Nine in number, laid down promiscuously without respect unto any order or dependence of one upon another; although it is probable that those first placed, were the principal, or of principal use in the Church.
