1 Corinthians 12:14-27

14For the body does not consist of one part, but of many.

15If the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body.

16And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body.

17If the whole body were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body were an ear, where would the sense of smell be?

18But in fact, God has arranged the members of the body, every one of them, according to His design.

19If they were all one part, where would the body be?

20As it is, there are many parts, but one body.

21The eye cannot say to the hand, “I do not need you.” Nor can the head say to the feet, “I do not need you.”

22On the contrary, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable,

23and the parts we consider less honorable, we treat with greater honor. And our unpresentable parts are treated with special modesty,

24whereas our presentable parts have no such need. But God has composed the body and has given greater honor to the parts that lacked it,

25so that there should be no division in the body, but that its members should have mutual concern for one another.

26If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.

27Now you are the body of Christ, and each of you is a member of it.

4Did it not belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, was it not at your disposal? How could you conceive such a deed in your heart? You have not lied to men, but to God!”

28He who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing good with his own hands, that he may have something to share with the one in need.
