Paragraph 2. THE CHURCH – PEOPLE OF GOD, BODY OF CHRIST, TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
791
The body’s unity does not do away with the diversity of its members: “In
the building up of Christ’s Body there is engaged a diversity of members and
functions. There is only one Spirit who, according to his own richness and the
needs of the ministries, gives his different gifts for the welfare of the
Church.”222 The unity of the Mystical Body produces and stimulates
charity among the faithful: “From this it follows that if one member
suffers anything, all the members suffer with him, and if one member is
honored, all the members together rejoice.”223 Finally, the unity
of the Mystical Body triumphs over all human divisions: “For as many of
you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor
Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for
you are all one in Christ Jesus.”224
