1 Corinthians · chapter 12 · verse 25
That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.1 Corinthians 12:25 · King James Version
1 Corinthians 12:25 in context
23And those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness.
24For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked:
25That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.
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.
