Yes.....and if he had been referencing the "giftS" (plural) he would have said one of/or the manifestations.....but instead he plainly said THE manifestation of the Spirit is given to all. To follow your logic.....every believer would have all of the gifts since you lump the one manifestation into any/all of the gifts....this would invalidate the rest of the chapter, because he clearly instructs that some have some gifts, others have different gifts, but all are from the same Spirit.
One MUST have THE Spirit to have one of the gifts of THE Spirit. What manifestation is universally seen when THE Spirit inhabits a man/woman?
