    15If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

    16And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

    26And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.

    27Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
