Romans 12:1-8

One body in Christ, with gifts that differ 

12:1I appeal to you therefore, brothers and sisters, on the basis of God's mercy, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your reasonable act of worship.

12:2Do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of the minds, so that you may discern what is the will of God--what is good and acceptable and perfect.

12:3For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of yourself more highly than you ought to think but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned.

12:4For as in one body we have many members and not all the members have the same function,

12:5so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually we are members one of another.

12:6We have gifts that differ according to the grace given to us: prophecy, in proportion to faith;

12:7ministry, in ministering; the teacher, in teaching;

12:8the encourager, in encouragement; the giver, in sincerity; the leader, in diligence; the compassionate, in cheerfulness.
