24. The more beautiful parts don’t need this special care. But God put the body together and gave more honor to the parts that need it.
25. God did this so that our body would not be divided. God wanted the different parts to care the same for each other.
26. If one part of the body suffers, then all the other parts suffer with it. Or if one part is honored, then all the other parts share its honor.
27. All of you together are the body of Christ. Each one of you is a part of that body.
