1 CORINTHIANS 12:12,17,18,21,22,27 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.
If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?
But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.
And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:
Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
Scripture claims that we are a Body, not just that we look like it. No matter whether you agree with them or not, you are linked to everybody who claims Jesus Christ as Lord. Every member of the Body is impacted by whatever occurs to ANYONE of the members.
The next time you feel tempted to talk negatively about or treat another believer, think back to this passage. Even if they don't hold the same beliefs as you or attend the same religion, they are still related to you through Jesus. So treat your body well!
SAY THIS:
I am a part of the earthly body of Christ. I'll allow Jesus Christ to use me to show the world his love and wisdom today.
