Each person has a different function that allows the local body of christ (the local church) to function smoothly as a whole. On a larger scale, each local church has a different function that contributes to the larger body of christ.<BR/><BR/>- TRAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4976233599526021972.post-22424992210013969262007-06-15T17:51:00.000-04:002007-06-15T17:51:00.000-04:00That's a really interesting question. I always th...That's a really interesting question. I always thought that passage implied that we all have different functions within the body. But I like your idea of being eph.(big word) cells where we can be of use many ways. Maybe that's why in Christian life we often find ourselves out of our comfort zone--God's telling us, ok now it's time to learn to be this way. If this makes any sense.Renahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09025771842485835838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4976233599526021972.post-13937737650807427072007-06-12T17:32:00.000-04:002007-06-12T17:32:00.000-04:00I love your nerdy mind! :-)You're on to something....I love your nerdy mind! :-)You're on to something.mexicanmasalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835761835982684100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4976233599526021972.post-90455363712824945562007-06-11T11:48:00.000-04:002007-06-11T11:48:00.000-04:00It's not nerdy at all!
