1 Corinthians 12:27

Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular We here return to the proposition of 1 Corinthians 12:12, rendered more definite and intelligible by what has since been said. The Apostle now says (1) that collectively, Christians are the body of Christ, individually they are His members; (2) that of these members each has its several office (1 Corinthians 12:28); and (3) that none of these offices is common to the whole Christian body, but each belongs only to those to whom it has been assigned (1 Corinthians 12:29).
