Unity and Diversity in the Body

¹² Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body,^(A) so it is with Christ.^{(B) 13} For we were all baptized^(C) by^[a] one Spirit^(D) so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free^(E)—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink.^(F)

¹⁸ But in fact God has placed^(A) the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be.^(B)

²⁷ Now you are the body of Christ,^(A) and each one of you is a part of it.^(B)
