The Body of Christ as the organism of the Triune God has a living and a service which is organic and corporate – all the members of the Body of Christ live together by taking Christ as life (Col. 3:3-4), and also all the members care for one another (1 Cor. 12:25-27). What I realize […]
we are going through a metamorphic change to become the Body of Christ, God’s glorious expression
