Romans 12:4-8 // Complementary

For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office:
So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.
Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;
Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;
Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.
(Romans 12:4-8)
Being different is a wonderful thing, we need to have different personal traits and abilities to be more effective as a team than we would be alone, but we must be united in Jesus, the Way and the Truth. Being united in Jesus is more than just sentimental, it must be based on doctrine and discipline, a willingness to not always have things my way.
