12:4 For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have
the same function, 5 so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and
individually members one of another. 1 Cor. 10:17 Because there is one bread,
we who are many are one body, for we all partake of the one bread. 1 Cor.12:
27 Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of Eph. 1:22 And
he put all things under his feet and gave him as head over all things to the
church, 23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all. 4:11
And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and
teachers, 12 to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up
the body of Christ, 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ
is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior. 24 Now as the
church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their
husbands. 25 Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave
himself up for her, 26 that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the
washing of water with the word, 27 so that he might present the church to
himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she
might be holy and without blemish. 28 In the same way husbands should love
their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 For
no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as
Christ does the church, 30 because we are members of his body. Col. 1:24 Now
I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I am filling up
what is lacking in Christ’s afflictions for the sake of his body, that is,
the church, 18 And he is the head of the body, the church. He is the
beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything he might be
preeminent. 1 Cor. 12:12 For just as the body is one and has many members,
and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with
Christ. Eph.4:15 Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in
every way into him who is the head, into Christ, 16 from whom the whole body,
joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each
part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in
love. |
