24. For those in us who are more honest need nothing, but God has ordered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that one which lacked,
25. that there should be no contradiction in the body, but that the members should have the same care one for another.
26. And if one member suffers, all the members suffer together; or if one member is honoured, all the members rejoice together.
27. Now ye are the body of Christ and members in particular.
28. And God did set certain ones in the congregation {Gr. ekklesia – called out ones}: first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that faculties, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.
29. Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? do all have faculties?
30. Do all have gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?
31. But earnestly pursue the best gifts, and yet I show unto you a more excellent way.
