1 Corinthians 12:15-26

Many diverse members united 1 Corinthians 12:15-26: There is nothing more diverse and nothing more united than the body. The imaginary conversations between the various parts of the body make this point clearly. A body is not really a body, unless there is more than one part working together. In the body no part of the body can take the place of another part. Each member is an important part of the physical body. Just so, each member is an important part of the spiritual body. No one can take the place of another. All are important.

When a person becomes a Christian they take on a new identity. This new person becomes an important part of the body of Christ. There is to be one church for all mankind, regardless of race or background. We have all been baptized into the same body. Christians are one in Christ. The church is the only place where people are truly created equal! The body is not one member, but many useful and important members! Christianity is not a religion of independence. If one part of our body hurts, then we all hurt. If one part of our body is honored, the whole body will feel honored.
