Romans 12:3-9 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

3. For by the grace given to me, I tell everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he should think. Instead, think sensibly, as God has distributed a measure of faith to each one.

4. Now as we have many parts in one body, and all the parts do not have the same function,

5. in the same way we who are many are one body in Christ and individually members of one another.

6. According to the grace given to us, we have different gifts: If prophecy, use it according to the standard of one’s faith;

7. if service, in service;if teaching, in teaching;

8. if exhorting, in exhortation;giving, with generosity; leading, with diligence;showing mercy, with cheerfulness.

9. Love must be without hypocrisy. Detest evil; cling to what is good.
