The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King James Bible: it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.
CO1 12:27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
CO1 12:28 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.
CO1 12:29 Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all
workers of miracles?
CO1 12:30 Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do
all interpret?
CO1 12:31 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a
more excellent way.
