There are some verses in the New Testament that puzzle or at least trouble most of us when we read them – verses that talk about “speaking the same thing”, “having the same mind”, “being attuned in the same mind and the same opinion”, “speaking with one mouth”, etc. Especially in the age we live […]
Holding Christ as the Head and being properly related to the other members in the Body of Christ
This morning I was so impressed with the fact that, as members in the Body of Christ, we have no direct relationship one with another – we are related one to another and we fellowship one with another through the Head. All the members of my physical body have no special or direct fellowship one […]
