Ephesians 4

Gifts for the Body

11And he gave some as apostles, some as prophets, some as evangelists, some as shepherds and teachers, 12for the equipping of the holy ones for the work of ministry, for the building up of the body of Christ,

13until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to maturity, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, 14so that we may no longer be children, tossed back and forth by the waves and carried about by every wind of teaching, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes;

15but speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, Christ, 16from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting joint, according to the working of each individual part, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.
