Body » The body of Christ
I now rejoice in sufferings for you, and make complete in my flesh things lacking of the afflictions of the Christ for his body, which is the church.
For just as we have many body-parts in one body, and all the body-parts have not the same function, so we, the many, are one body in Christ, and each one body-parts of each other. And having different gifts according to the grace that was given to us, whether prophecy, according to the proportion of faith; read more.
or service, in the service; or he who teaches, in the teaching; or he who exhorts, in the exhortation; he who gives, in simplicity; he who leads, in diligence; he who does mercy, in cheerfulness.

Know ye not that your bodies are body-parts of Christ? Therefore, having taken the body-parts of the Christ, should I make them body-parts of a harlot? May it not happen! Or know ye not that he who is joined to a harlot is one body? For, The two, he says, will be in one flesh. But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit.
The cup of the blessing that we bless, is it not a participation of the blood of the Christ? The bread that we break, is it not a participation of the body of the Christ? Because we, the many, are one bread, one body, for we are all partakers of the one bread.
For just as the body is one and has many parts, and all the parts of the body, being many, are one body, so also is the Christ. For also by one Spirit we are all immersed into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bondmen or freemen, and we were all made to drink into one Spirit. For the body also is not one part, but many. read more.
If the foot should say, Because I am not a hand I am not of the body, it is not by this not of the body. And if the ear should say, Because I am not an eye I am not of the body, it is not by this not of the body. If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling? But now God has placed the parts, each one of them, in the body just as he intended. And if they were all one part, where would be the body? But now of course there are many body-parts, but one body. And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of thee, nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. Instead, much more the parts of the body that seem to be more feeble are necessary. And those things of the body presumed to be without esteem, we place around these more abundant worth. And our unpresentable parts have more abundant propriety, whereas our presentable parts have no need. Instead, God united the body together, having given more abundant worth to the part that lacks, so that there would be no schisms in the body, but that the parts would have the same care for each other. And if one part suffers, all the parts suffer together, or one part is honored, all the parts rejoice together. Now ye are the body of Christ, and body-parts individually. And in the church God has placed men who are first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, kinds of tongues. Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all do miracles? Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret? But be zealous for the better gifts. And yet I show you a more excellent way.

And what is the transcending greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of the dominion of his might, which he wrought in the Christ, having raised him from the dead and seated at his right hand in the heavenly things, far above every principle office, and position of authority, and power, and lordship, and every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in that which is coming. read more.

one body, and one Spirit. Just as also ye were called in one hope of your calling, one Lord, one faith, one immersion, one God and Father of all. He is over all, and through all, and in us all. But the grace was given to each of us, according to the measure of the gift of the Christ. Therefore he says, Having ascended on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts to men. And what is the ascended, except that he also first descended into the lower parts of the earth? He who descended is also the same man who ascended high above all the heavens, so that he might fill all things. And indeed he gave the apostles, and the prophets, and the evangelists, and the shepherds and teachers for the perfecting of the sanctified, for the work of ministry, for edification of the body of the Christ. Until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to a standard of stature of the fullness of the Christ. So that we may no longer be childish, tossed about and carried about by every wind of doctrine by the trickery of men in craftiness with the methodology of error. But being truthful in love, we may cause all things to grow for him who is the head--the Christ-- from whom the whole body, joined together and united together through every connection of the supply, according to the working of each one part within a standard, makes the growth of the body for the construction of itself by love.

Wives, submit to your own husbands as to the Lord. Because a husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church, and himself the savior of the body. But as the church is subject to the Christ, so also the wives to their own husbands in everything. read more.
Husbands, love your own wives even as Christ also loved the church, and delivered himself up for it, so that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it with the washing of water by the word, so that he might present it to himself, the glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that it should be holy and unblemished. So ought the husbands to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself. For no man ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as also Christ the church, because we are parts of his body, of his flesh and of his bones. Separate from this a man will leave his father and mother behind, and will be bonded with his wife, and the two will be in one flesh. This mystery is great, but I speak for Christ and for the church. Nevertheless ye also, each one in particular, shall so love his own wife as himself, and the wife that she fear her husband.

And let the peace of God umpire in your hearts, for which also ye were called in one body, and become thankful.
