Building Up the Body of Christ

11

He gave some to be emissaries; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, shepherds and teachers;

12

for the perfecting of the holy ones, to the work of serving, to the building up of the body of Messiah;

13

until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a full grown man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Messiah;

14

that we may no longer be children, tossed back and forth and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in craftiness, after the wiles of error;

15

but speaking truth in love, we may grow up in all things into him, who is the head, Messiah;

16

from whom all the body, being fitted and knit together through that which every joint supplies, according to the working in measure of each individual part, makes the body increase to the building up of itself in love.
