If We Are the Body
1 Corinthians 12:12-31
“If we are the body why aren’t His arms reaching?
Why aren’t His hands healing?
Why aren’t His words teaching?
And if we are the body, why aren’t His feet going?
Why is His love not showing them there is a way?”
Casting Crowns, If We Are the Body, chorus.
"'If We Are the Body' addresses a problem I've seen in churches all over - that churches are a lot like a circle. Circles are great if you're in the circle, but most people find themselves outside that circle for whatever reason.
There's not a sign on the door but you get the feeling they've got everybody they need. You're welcome to come, but you're not really ever going to be part of the circle and that's certainly not what the Bible teaches." Mark Hall
“I love this song. I agree with it completely. I've been to a lot of different churches where I just didn’t feel welcome whatsoever. That’s why I ended up in the church I'm in because people opened up to me and made me feel like I belonged.” Shebalba8
“My church that i grew up in had cliches and... it felt really uncomfortable. the church I am at now... it’s like a 180. all it takes is a simple introduction to make a person feel at home. it won't kill ya...” Itzadoozy
“I really love the lyrics for this song. How often do people judge others who come to their church or judge other Christian’s b/c they have beliefs slightly different from theirs? We are all brothers and sisters in Christ, and we must stand together or perish.” Singmesweet
2. If we are the body, we will recognize the inestimable worth of each part.
3. If we are the body, we won’t elevate one set of gifts above another, but we’ll be mutually dependent on one another.
4. If we are the body, we won’t divide over our spiritual gifts, but rather we will use them to build each other up and to care for each other.
5. If we are the body, we will rally around Christ, our ultimate unifying member of the body.
6. If we are the body, we will be driven by something far greater than our giftings, we will be driven by our love for one another.
