The Body of Christ

​by Pastor John Khng
Scripture Reading: 1 Corinthians 12:1-31 

​Introduction: 
Picture of the Body of Christ   - Remember putting your face above a headless frame painted to represent a muscle man, a clown, or even a bathing beauty (mermaid)? Many of us have had our pictures taken this way, and the photos are humorous because the head doesn’t fit the body. If we could picture Christ as the head of our local body of believers, would the world laugh at the misfit? Or would they stand in awe of a human body so closely related to a divine head? - Dan Bernard - Source unknown

I. The Body of Christ is Dependent on God – 1 Cor. 12:1-11
II. The Body of Christ has Many Members – 1 Cor 12:12 to 19
III. The Many Members Have One Body – 1 Cor. 12:20-26
IV. Members of The Body of Christ must Stay Together – 1 Cor 12:27-31
