than he should think. Instead, think sensibly, as
God has distributed a measure of faith to each
one.

the parts do not have the same function, - in the same way we who are many are one body in
Christ and individually members of one another.

different gifts If prophecy, use it according to
the standard of faith - if service, in service if teaching, in teaching
- if exhorting, in exhortation giving, with
generosity leading, with diligence showing
mercy, with cheerfulness.

cling to what is good. - Show family affection to one another with
brotherly love. Outdo one another in showing
honor. - Do not lack diligence be fervent in spirit
serve the Lord. - Rejoice in hope be patient in affliction be
persistent in prayer.
6- Share with the saints in their needs pursue
hospitality. - Bless those who persecute you bless and do not
curse. - Rejoice with those who rejoice weep with those
who weep. - Be in agreement with one another. Do not be
proud instead, associate with the humble. Do not
be wise in your own estimation.
7- Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Try to do what
is honorable in everyones eyes. - If possible, on your part, live at peace with
everyone. - Friends, do not avenge yourselves instead, leave
room for His wrath. For it is written Vengeance
belongs to Me I will repay, says the Lord.
8- But If your enemy is hungry, feed him. If he is
thirsty, give him something to drink. For in so
doing you will be heaping fiery coals on his
head. - Do not be conquered by evil, but conquer evil
