Romans 12:1-8 NIV
Romans 12:3b “as to each God has measured a measure of faith." (Dr. Terri Moore edition)
“The ‘measure’ here, then, is not a kind of measuring-jug containing different amounts of faith, apportioned to different people, but a measuring-rod, the same for all, called ‘faith’. It is up to each Christian to see where they come against that standard, since it is the only one that matters.” – N.T. Wright

“Understanding that Christians belong to one body and have in common the same grace of God and faith, will help stifle exaggerated ideas about one’s own status or ministry. And recognition of the significant contribution made by each member of the body of Christ will prevent one from thinking too highly (or too lowly) of himself or herself.” – Douglas Moo
