for we are members of his body. ¹ 

Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Should I take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? Never!

So now there are many members, but one body.

For just as in one body we have many members, and not all the members serve the same function,

and those members we consider less honorable we clothe with greater honor, and our unpresentable members are clothed with dignity, ¹ 

For just as the body is one and yet has many members, and all the members of the body – though many – are one body, so too is Christ.

and a man’s enemies will be the members of his household. ¹ 

On the contrary, those members that seem to be weaker are essential,

and do not present your members to sin as instruments ¹  to be used for unrighteousness, ²  but present yourselves to God as those who are alive from the dead and your members to God as instruments ³  to be used for righteousness.

But I see a different law in my members waging war against the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin that is in my members.

so we who are many are one body in Christ, and individually we are members who belong to one another.

But as a matter of fact, God has placed each of the members in the body just as he decided.

so that there may be no division in the body, but the members may have mutual concern for one another.

Annas the high priest was there, and Caiaphas, John, Alexander, and others who were members of the high priest’s family. ¹ 

For when we were in the flesh, ¹  the sinful desires, ²  aroused by the law, were active in the members of our body ³  to bear fruit for death.

For members of Chloe’s household have made it clear to me, my brothers and sisters, ¹  that there are quarrels ²  among you.

but our presentable members do not need this. Instead, God has blended together the body, giving greater honor to the lesser member,

So then you are no longer foreigners and noncitizens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of God’s household,

namely, that through the gospel ¹  the Gentiles are fellow heirs, fellow members ²  of the body, and fellow partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus.

Therefore, having laid aside falsehood, each one of you speak the truth with his neighbor, ¹  for we are members of one another.
