- Kapitel 12 -

(1 Corinthians 3:16–23; 1 Corinthians 6:18–20)
1
I urge you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God. This is your reasonable service.
2
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind. Do this to know what is the good, acceptable, and perfect will of God.
3
For I say, because of the grace that was given to me, that everyone who is among you should not think more highly of themselves than they ought to think. Instead, they should think in a wise way, just as God has given out to each one a certain amount of faith.
4
For we have many members in one body, but not all the members have the same function.
5
In the same way, we who are many are one body in Christ, and are individually members of each other.
6
We have different gifts according to the grace that was given to us. If one’s gift is prophecy, let it be done according to the proportion of his faith.
7
If one’s gift is service, let him serve. If one has the gift of teaching, let him teach.
8
If one’s gift is encouragement, let him encourage. If one’s gift is giving, let him do it generously. If one’s gift is leading, let it be done with care. If one’s gift is in showing mercy, let it be done with cheerfulness.

18

4
For even as we have many members in one body, and all the members don’t have the same function,
5
so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another,
6
having gifts differing according to the grace that was given to us: if prophecy, lets prophesy according to the proportion of our faith;
7
or service, let’s give ourselves to service; or he who teaches, to his teaching;
8
or he who exhorts, to his exhorting; he who gives, let him do it with generosity; he who rules, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.
