1Cor 12:17 | MHM | STEP | v. 17-20 : Paul asks, “If the whole body were an eye, where would be the sense of hearing? If the whole body were an ear, where would be the sense of smell?... But as it is, God arranged the members in the body, each one of them, as he chose. If all were a single member, where would the body be? As it is, there are many parts, yet one body” (1 Corinthians 12:17-20 ). Paul shows that God made each part different on purpose. If everyone was the same, the body would not work. Diversity is important for the health and beauty of the church.
