THE ANALOGY OF THE GIFTS (12:12-27):

Each member in both bodies performs a vital task (12:12-13, 18).

No member in either body can be independent of the other members (12:14-17, 19-24).

The foot and the ear are not to show envy toward the hand and the eye (12:14-17).

The eye and the head are not to show pride toward the hands and the feet (12:21).

Each member in both bodies is to rejoice and suffer with the other members (12:19-20, 22-27).

THE GREATEST OF THE GIFTS (12:31): Paul ends this chapter by promising to show "the most excellent way," which he does in chapter 13.
