Christ's body has the mind of Christ. His body will see spiritually and hear spiritually and there will be no argument as to what the hands and feet should do. Every part of the body will know it is of the body because it will be in obedience to Christ. Do not confuse uncomely parts with disobedient parts. The uncomely parts will still do the will of the mind. Disobedient parts will not which shows an illness. These disobedient parts are to be plucked out or cut off. For it is better to enter into life maimed than to get hit by the train. So then we which are of the body of Christ will know which parts to lop off, or pluck out. Or in other words those who would argue and debate, never comlng to the truth, till you get hit by the train. I don't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He taught us how to obey Him once we renounced our sins. He also taught us how to recognize wolves in sheepskin clothing. Does that help. Oh, and to lop off or pluck out, means not to give heed to the wolves who claim to be of Christ and are not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We hear the Word telling us one thing, but our circumstances don't see the danger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this instance it's the Church. Peace, Dave This is interesting. I need to read more about it. It is a wonderful book. There is also a DVD based Small Group study that includes a daily quiet time, scipture memory, and reflection on scipture. It has revoutionized my relationship with God. My wife and I are taking the Young Married Small Group we are shepherding through this right now. You can purchase it or the book through CBD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
