1 Corinthians 12:27

25 that there should be no¹ schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.

26 And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.

27 Now ^ayou are the body of Christ, and ^bmembers individually.

28 And ^aGod has appointed these in the church: first ^bapostles, second ^cprophets, third teachers, after that ^dmiracles, then ^egifts of healings, ^fhelps, ^gadministrations, varieties of tongues.

29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles?

30 Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?

31 But ^aearnestly desire the best gifts. And yet I show you a more excellent way.

I Corinthians 12:27-31

That more excellent way is the way of love, the way of giving, the way of outgoing concern for others, as the next chapter, chapter 13, explains. Nevertheless, godly love cannot be learned and applied without the knowledge and understanding of the true doctrine of the prophets, Jesus Christ, and the apostles. Because of the unity of the body, the same blood flows through all its parts. This vital power animates the whole.
