Body » The body of Christ
Now I rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up what remains of my sufferings for Christ in my flesh for the sake of his body, which is the church,
For as we have many members in one body, and all the members have not the same office, so we, the many, are one body in Christ, and members one of another. Since, then, we have gifts which differ according to the grace that is given to us, whether we have the gift of prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of our faith; read more.
or, if we have a ministry, let us be active in our ministry; if any one teaches, let him attend to his teaching; or, if any exhorts, let him attend to exhortation; if any one gives, let him do it with sincerity; he that rules, with diligence: he that shows mercy, with cheerfulness.

Know you not that your bodies are the members of Christ? Shall I, then, take the members of the Christ, and make them the members of a harlot? It must not be. Know you not that he that is joined to a harlot, is one body? For the two, says the scripture, shall be one flesh. But he that is joined to the Lord, is one spirit.
The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the participation of the blood of the Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the participation of the body of the Christ? Because the loaf is one, we, the many, are one body, for we are all partakers of the one loaf.
For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body, so also is the Christ. For by one Spirit we all were immersed into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free; and we all have been made to drink of one Spirit. For the body is not one member, but many. read more.
If the foot shall say: Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body, is it, for this reason, no part of the body? And if the ear shall say: Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body, is it, for this reason, no part of the body? If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling? But now God has placed the members, each of them, in the body, as it has pleased him. And if they were all one member, where were the body? But now there are many members, but one body. The eye can not say to the hand: I have no need of you; or again, the head to the feet: I have no need of you. But much more are those members of the body necessary, which seem to be more feeble. And those members of the body, which, we think, are less honorable, around these we place the more abundant honor; and our uncomely members have the more abundant comeliness: for our comely members have no need. But God has so arranged the body, giving more abundant honor to that part which is deficient, that there may be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same anxious care, one for another; and if one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it. Now, you are the body of Christ, and, as individuals, you are members. And God has placed some in the church, first, apostles; secondly, prophets; thirdly, teachers; then mighty deeds; then gifts of healing; helps, governments, kinds of tongues. Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of mighty deeds? Have all the gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret? But seek earnestly the best gifts; and yet I show you a more excellent way.

There is one body and one Spirit, even as you have been called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one immersion; one God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all, and in you all. But grace has been given to each one of us, according to the measure of the gift of the Christ. For which reason, the scripture says: When he ascended on high, he led captive a multitude of captives, and gave gifts to men. But this He ascended what does it mean, but that he also descended into the lower earthly regions? He that descended is also he that ascended high above all the heavens, that he might fill all things. And he himself gave some to be apostles, and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; for the complete instruction of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the building up of the body of the Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to a measure of stature that fully develops the Christ; that we might no longer be children, tossed and carried about by every wind of teaching, through the artifice of men, through craftiness used by them for the deliberate planning of deceit; but speaking truthfully in love, we might grow up in all things, into him who is the head, even the Christ, from whom the whole body, compactly fitted together, and united by every helping joint, according to the energy in the measure of each part, makes increase of the body, for the building up of itself in love.

Wives, be subject to your own husbands as to the Lord: for the husband is the head of the wife, as the Christ also is the head of the church; and he is the savior of the body. But as the church is subject to the Christ, so, also, let the wives be subject to their own husbands in every thing. read more.
Husbands, love your wives, as the Christ also loved the church, and delivered himself up for it, that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the bath of water through the word, in order that he might present it to himself a glorious church, having neither stain, nor wrinkle, nor any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. So ought men to love their own wives as their own bodies. He that loves his wife loves himself; for no one ever yet hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, even as the Christ the church: because we are members of his body, being of his flesh, and of his bones. For this cause a man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and the two shall be one flesh. Great is this mystery; but I speak of Christ and of the church. But yet, let each one of you so love his wife as himself; and let the wife see that she reverence her husband.
