Those parts of the body which we think to be less honorable, on those we bestow more abundant honor; and our unpresentable parts have more abundant propriety;

whereas our presentable parts have no such need. But God composed the body together, giving more abundant honor to the inferior part,

|
that there should be no division in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.

|
|
1 Corinthians 12:31
|
But earnestly desire the best gifts. Moreover, I show a most excellent way to you.
