I Corinthians 12:12 ” The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ.”

They estimate that the human body has 100 trillion cells, 100,000 hairs on our head, and 9,000 taste buds…not to mention 206 bones, 600 muscles, and 79 organs.  Each part of our body has a unique purpose and function…each part working together seamlessly in perfect unity.  For inside our body there is co-operation not competition…and harmony not rivalry.  In this verse Paul is comparing the human body and all its parts to the Church…the body of Christ.  For we are one body with many members, each just as important as the other… all bound together as one in love.
