Here For A Purpose

Outline

  1. Christ's body
    • He stresses that Jesus loves the church the way a person loves their own physical body - Ephesians 5:23-29
    • He talks about unity in diversity.  The church is made up of very different people with different personalities, skills, and gifts, but we should live in unity and cooperation like a healthy body (1 Cor 12:12-26; Rom 12:4-8; Col 3:15).
    • He tells us that each member of the body has the privilege and responsibility of doing their part to help the body grow and become stronger (Eph 4:7-13).

    • Every Christian has a role
