Serve God with Spiritual Gifts

³ For I say, ^(A)through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, ^(B)not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt ^(C)to each one a measure of faith. ⁴ For ^(D)as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function, ⁵ so ^(E)we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another. ⁶ Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is ^(F)given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, let us ^(G)prophesy in proportion to our faith; ⁷ or ministry, let us use it in our ministering; ^(H)he who teaches, in teaching; ^8 (I)he who exhorts, in exhortation; ^(J)he who gives, with liberality; ^(K)he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, ^(L)with cheerfulness.

Behave Like a Christian

^9 (M)Let love be without hypocrisy. ^(N)Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good. ^10 (O)Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, ^(P)in honor giving preference to one another; ¹¹ not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; ^12 (Q)rejoicing in hope, ^(R)patient^[a] in tribulation, ^(S)continuing steadfastly in prayer; ^13 (T)distributing to the needs of the saints, ^(U)given^[b] to hospitality.

^14 (V)Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. ^15 (W)Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep. ^16 (X)Be of the same mind toward one another. ^(Y)Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion.
