照著所賜給我們的恩典，我們各有不同的恩賜：如果是做先知傳道的恩賜，就按照信心的程度用它；如果是服事的，就用在服事上；如果是教導的，就用在教導上；如果是勸勉的，就用在勸勉上；分享的，要慷慨；帶領的，要殷勤；憐憫人的，要甘心樂意。

而且你們怎樣在信仰、言語、知識、殷勤和你們對我們的愛心上都豐足有餘，你們也當怎樣在這恩惠之事上豐足有餘。我說這話不是出於命令，而是要藉著別人的殷勤來考驗你們愛的真誠，

因為人如果有樂意之心，就會照著他所擁有的蒙悅納，並不是照著他所沒有的蒙悅納。

弟兄們，我們要你們明白神在馬其頓省各教會中所賜的恩典：在患難的極大考驗中，他們的喜樂之滿和貧窮之深都流露出來，歸入他們慷慨之心的財富。因為我可以見證他們是按著自己的能力，甚至超過了自己的能力，甘心樂意，
