web @1Corinthians:12:12 @For as the body is one , and has many members , and all the members of the body , being many , are one body ; so also is Christ . web @1Corinthians:12:13 @For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body , whether Jews or Greeks , whether bond or free ; and were all given to drink into one Spirit . web @1Corinthians:12:14 @For the body is not one member , but many . web @1Corinthians:12:15 @If the foot would say , "Because I 'm not the hand , I 'm not part of the body ," it is not therefore not part of the body . web @1Corinthians:12:16 @If the ear would say , "Because I 'm not the eye , I 'm not part of the body ," it 's not therefore not part of the body . web @1Corinthians:12:17 @If the whole body were an eye , where would the hearing be ? If the whole were hearing , where would the smelling be ? web @1Corinthians:12:18 @But now God has set the members , each one of them , in the body , just as he desired . web @1Corinthians:12:19 @If they were all one member , where would the body be ? web @1Corinthians:12:20 @But now they are many members , but one body . web @1Corinthians:12:21 @The eye can 't tell the hand , "I have no need for you ," or again the head to the feet , "I have no need for you ." web @1Corinthians:12:22 @No , much rather , those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary . web @1Corinthians:12:23 @Those parts of the body which we think to be less honorable , on those we bestow more abundant honor ; and our unpresentable parts have more abundant propriety ; web @1Corinthians:12:24 @whereas our presentable parts have no such need . But God composed the body together , giving more abundant honor to the inferior part , web @1Corinthians:12:25 @that there should be no division in the body , but that the members should have the same care for one another . web @1Corinthians:12:26 @When one member suffers , all the members suffer with it . Or when one member is honored , all the members rejoice with it . web @1Corinthians:12:27 @Now you are the body of Christ , and members individually . web @1Corinthians:12:28 @God has set some in the assembly : first apostles , second prophets , third teachers , then miracle workers , then gifts of healings , helps , governments , and various kinds of languages . web @1Corinthians:12:29 @Are all apostles ? Are all prophets ? Are all teachers ? Are all miracle workers ? web @1Corinthians:12:30 @Do all have gifts of healings ? Do all speak with various languages ? Do all interpret ? web @1Corinthians:12:31 @But earnestly desire the best gifts . Moreover , I show a most excellent way to you .
