#2 - The Body of Christ
(For the Audio Version, click on this link: The Body of Christ
We read in 1 Corinthians 12:27, “Now you are the body of Christ,
and members individually.” (NKJV)
In 1 Corinthians Chapter 12, the Apostle Paul explains in
detail, that the church is the Body of Christ. Just like our human body has
many members, so also the body of Christ comprises of many members. Every one
of us are blessed to be one such member of His body, the church. For the Body
of Christ to operate effectively, we must realize that each one of us has an
important role to play. No one is inferior and no one is superior. We need each
other, and are called to support one another, genuinely care for each other and
esteem others better than ourselves.
Most importantly, as the Body of Christ, we represent Him,
so may we function in such a way that Jesus Christ will be honored through each
of our lives.
