'Because God Loves Us.'
Isaiah 43:4.
a) We are Precious and Honoured in His Sight.
b) He will give people in exchange for us.
c) He will give Nations in exchange for our lives.
(This QT teaches me what happens Because God Loves Me)

'One Body.'
Romans 12:5.
a) In Christ.
b) 1 Corinthians 12:20. We are many people.
c) 1 Corinthians 12:12. We form one Body.
d) Each individual Member.
e) Belongs to all of the others.
(Through this Second one I rejoice because the Church is One Body)

Chris.
I really like the Biblical concept of the Church as being a Body. We need to learn to live our Church lives as a Body. There are many denominations who all have their different emphasis on the Teaching of the Body of Christ. We should not be distracted by those who tell us that we are not really the Body of Christ if we do not live like they do. Let us discover what being members of the Body of Christ individually means and then as a Church, the Body of True Believers. We discover this in God's Word and our application and interpretations of it.
