1 Corinthians 12:11-13
EasyEnglish Bible
11 There is only one Holy Spirit. The same Spirit helps people to do all these different things. He decides which gifts he will give to each person.
One body with many parts
12 Each person has only one body, but that body has many parts. All those different parts make only one body. It is like that with Christ too. 13 When they baptized us, we all became parts of one body. It was the one Spirit who brought us together. It made no difference whether we were Jews or Gentiles. It made no difference whether we were slaves or free people. God poured his one Spirit into all of us.

1 Corinthians 12:11-13
New International Version
11 All these are the work of one and the same Spirit,(A) and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines.
Unity and Diversity in the Body
12 Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body,(B) so it is with Christ.(C) 13 For we were all baptized(D) by[a] one Spirit(E) so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free(F)—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink.(G)
