2And let not your behaviour be like that of this world, but be changed and made new in mind, so that by experience you may have knowledge of the good and pleasing and complete purpose of God.
3But I say to every one of you, through the grace given to me, not to have an over-high opinion of himself, but to have wise thoughts, as God has given to every one a measure of faith.
4For, as we have a number of parts in one body, but all the parts have not the same use,
5So we, though we are a number of persons, are one body in Christ, and are dependent on one another;
6And having different qualities by reason of the grace given to us, such as the quality of a prophet, let it be made use of in relation to the measure of our faith;
7Or the position of a Deacon of the church, let a man give himself to it; or he who has the power of teaching, let him make use of it;
8He who has the power of comforting, let him do so; he who gives, let him give freely; he who has the power of ruling, let him do it with a serious mind; he who has mercy on others, let it be with joy.
