kjc - 1Corinthians:12:12-31

kjc@1Corinthians:12:12 @ For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.

kjc@1Corinthians:12:13 @ For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.

kjc@1Corinthians:12:14 @ For the body is not one member, but many.

kjc@1Corinthians:12:15 @ If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

kjc@1Corinthians:12:16 @ 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?

kjc@1Corinthians:12:17 @ If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?

kjc@1Corinthians:12:18 @ But now has God set the members every one of them in the body, as it has pleased him.

kjc@1Corinthians:12:19 @ And if they were all one member, where were the body?

kjc@1Corinthians:12:20 @ But now are they many members, yet but one body.

kjc@1Corinthians:12:21 @ And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of you: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.

kjc@1Corinthians:12:22 @ No, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:

kjc@1Corinthians:12:23 @ 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.

kjc@1Corinthians:12:24 @ For our comely parts have no need: but God has tempered the body together, having given more abundant honor to that part which lacked.

kjc@1Corinthians:12:25 @ That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.

kjc@1Corinthians:12:26 @ And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honored, all the members rejoice with it.

kjc@1Corinthians:12:27 @ Now you are the body of Christ, and members in particular.

kjc@1Corinthians:12:28 @ And God has set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.

kjc@1Corinthians:12:29 @ Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles?

kjc@1Corinthians:12:30 @ Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?

kjc@1Corinthians:12:31 @ But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet show I unto you a more excellent way.
