Read the whole together to get an idea of the overall picture of what Paul is addressing here.
When I was studying this out, I see two issues that Paul addresses.
One only gets a cursory mention.
The other is the bulk of the chapter.
Introduction
First Misuse of Spiritual Things - Acting like Pagans
This next section is an introduction to the second misuse of the things of the Spirit.
The Second Misuse - Self-exaltation
Same Spirit, Same Lord, Same God - Differences for Unity
Example of Godhead.
different gifts, roles, work, but each doing their part in complete unity.
Purpose of Spirit’s Gifts - Common Good
Gifts distributed by the Spirit

Conclusion
Spirit gives gifts so that we can build up one another.
If we are truly using our gifts as intended, we will see the fruit of the Spirit: Love.

Romans is the same.
After speaking of the differing gifts, Paul says
Spiritual Gifts Proper Use - Exalting Christ, not self
Spiritual Gifts Proper Use - In Love; Honoring and Considering Others
