1 Corinthians 12 - We Need Each Other's Gifts
A healthy church is like a healthy human body. When every part of our body is working well and all together without any deficiency, we are experiencing health. When a part of our human body is hurt, sick unable to function, we experience a lack of health. The same with the body of Christ described in today’s teaching. We all have a role to play in the local church; we only function healthily when we value each part of the body and realize we need one another to experience spiritual health as a church. The goal and plan of God is that when each part does its share, it makes an increase of the body unto the edifying of itself together in love. Being an active participant in the local church as part of His Body is our calling as God uses us to bring unity with one another and edifies, builds one another up in the faith. What’s our part, what’s my gift, God wants us to know so we’re spiritually fulfilled, making an impact upon one another, all for His Glory.
