Part IV--The Family Of God / The Body Of Christ

A. Lesson 19--The Nature Of Christ's Body

    6. READ: COLOSSIANS 3:1-17

      d. What are we members of?

        Answer: We are members of one body, (verse 15).

        MORE INFORMATION AND/OR OTHER SCRIPTURE REFERENCES:

        Romans 12:4-5: "Just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others."

        Ephesians 5:23, 28-30: "For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, His body, of which He is the Savior...In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church--for we are members of His body."

        Colossians 1:18-20, 24: "And He is the head of the body, the church; He is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything He might have the supremacy. For God was pleased to have all His fullness dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through His blood, shed on the cross...Now I rejoice in what was suffered for you, and I fill up in my flesh what is still lacking in regard to Christ's afflictions, for the sake of His body, which is the church."
