Pastor Scott Brenner 1 Corinthians 12:12~27
1 Corinthians 12:12~27

12:12 For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ.
12:13 For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body--whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free--and have all been made to drink into one Spirit.
12:14 For in fact the body is not one member but many.
12:15 If the foot should say, "Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body," is it therefore not of the body?
12:16 And if the ear should say, "Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body," is it therefore not of the body?
12:17 If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?
12:18 But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body just as He pleased.
12:19 And if they were all one member, where would the body be?
12:20 But now indeed there are many members, yet one body.
12:21 And the eye cannot say to the hand, "I have no need of you"; nor again the head to the feet, "I have no need of you."
12:22 No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary.
12:23 And those members of the body which we think to be less honorable, on these we bestow greater honor; and our unpresentable parts have greater modesty,
12:24 but our presentable parts have no need. But God composed the body, having given greater honor to that part which lacks it,
12:25 that there should be no schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.
12:26 And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
12:27 Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.
