All Parts of One Body
| 14 | For the body is not one member, but many. |
| 15 | If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? |
| 16 | And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? |
| 17 | If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling? |
| 18 | But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him. |
| 19 | And if they were all one member, where were the body? |
| 20 | But now are they many members, yet but one body. |
| 21 | And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. |
| 22 | Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary: |
| 23 | And those members of the body, which we think to be less honorable, upon these we bestow more abundant honor; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness. |
| 24 | For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honor to that part which lacked: |
| 25 | That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another. |
| 26 | And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honored, all the members rejoice with it. |
| 27 | Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular. |
| 28 | And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. |
| 29 | Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles? |
| 30 | Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret? |
| 31 | But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet show I unto you a more excellent way. |
