- 1 Cor 12:12-27 : 12 For as the body is one, & hath many members, and all the members of one body, though they be many, yet are but one body: euen so is Christe. 13 For by one spirite, are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Iewes or gentiles, whether we be bonde or free: and haue all drunke of one spirite. 14 For the body is not one member, but many. 15 If the foote woulde say, because I am not the hande, I am not of the body: is it therfore not of the body? 16 And yf the eare woulde say, because I am not the eye, I am not of the body: is it therfore not of the body? 17 If all the body were an eye, where were then the hearyng?

And our vncomely partes, haue more comelynesse on. 24 For our comely members neede it not: But God hath tempered the body together, and hath geuen the more honour to that part which lacked: 25 Lest there shoulde be any stryfe in the body: but that the members shoulde haue the same care one for another. 26 And yf one member suffer, all suffer with it. If one member be had in honour, all the members reioyce with it. 27 Ye are the body of Christe, and members one of another.
