Wisdom & Truth Verses
Every verse of God's eternal Word carries wisdom and truth. A home for all the rich teachings not captured elsewhere.
But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.
And if they were all one member, where {were} the body?
And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:
And those {members} of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely {parts} have more abundant comeliness. {bestow: or, put on}
For our comely {parts} have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that {part} which lacked:
Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. {darkly: Gr. in a riddle}
For he that speaketh in an {unknown} tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth {him}; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries. {understandeth: Gr. heareth}
But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men {to} edification, and exhortation, and comfort.
