02/08/2009 – Series: Being the Church - Body by the Spirit – 1 Corinthians 12
Nowadays we have:
Body by Jake
Body by Glamour
Body by Dr. Ted
Body by Victoria
and Body by Milk - because Milk does a Body good
Corporately, as the Church, we here have a Body by the Spirit.
Last week, we discussed how we are a community of the Spirit. What we will see today is that the Spirit makes us even more than a community, but in a real way, a Body. As 1 Corinthians 12:13,27 says, "So it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body... Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it."
It is a mind-blowing concept that in some very real way, we are Jesus’ Body here on earth. We are His representatives, His ambassadors, His Body. We are Jesus to this world - His Body, His Voice, His Hands and His Feet.
So to be the Church - we must understand what it means to be the Body of Christ - a Body by His Spirit.
