¹² For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body; so also is Christ.

²⁷ Now ye are the body of Christ, and severally members thereof.

¹⁷ seeing that we, who are many, are one bread, one body: for we are all partake of the one bread.

¹⁵ And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to the which also ye were called in one body; and be ye thankful.

¹⁹ and not holding fast the Head, from whom all the body, being supplied and knit together through the joints and bands, increasing with the increase of God.

¹² for the perfecting of the saints, unto the work of ministering, unto the building up of the body of Christ:

¹⁸ And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

³⁰ because we are members of his body.

²³ For the husband is the head of the wife, and Christ also is the head of the church, `being' himself the saviour of the body.

⁴ `There is' one body, and one Spirit, even as also ye were called in one hope of your calling;

²⁴ Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and fill up on my part that which is lacking of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the church;

¹⁵ but speaking truth in love, we may grow up in all things into him, who is the head, `even' Christ;

¹⁶ from whom all the body fitly framed and knit together through that which every joint supplieth, according to the working in `due' measure of each several part, maketh the increase of the body unto the building up of itself in love.

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

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

²³ which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

¹⁶ Now to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
