Romans 12:6-9

12:6 And we have different gifts ¹  according to the grace given to us. If the gift is prophecy, that individual must use it in proportion to his faith. 12:7 If it is service, he must serve; if it is teaching, he must teach; 12:8 if it is exhortation, he must exhort; if it is contributing, he must do so with sincerity; if it is leadership, he must do so with diligence; if it is showing mercy, he must do so with cheerfulness.

12:9 Love must be ²  without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil, cling to what is good.

[12:6]  ¹ tn This word comes from the same root as “grace” in the following clause; it means “things graciously given,” “grace-gifts.”
