All Gods children that you been sanctified and purified from sin through the blood of Christ form the body of Christ. We are all united in one thing: We have a relationship with Jesus Christ and we strive to persue holiness.

Many of us have different functions, but we all work together as one unit. By daily seeking God's will for our lives we begin to realise our function in the body of Christ. It is important that we are at the right place at the right time and that we are united.

Christ said that the world will know that God has sent Him if we are united as He and the Father are united. That is the reason why Satan seeks to sow disunity among God's children. Christ brings unity but Satan brings disunity.

Yes. And I don't think that everybody has the same calling. I think it is important for each member of the body should find out from God what their duty and calling is. And once God has revealed his purpose for our lives, it is up to us to live at the centre of His will every moment of the day.

All the Beleivers of CHRIST, are supposed to function together. Wear all supposed to live of HIS WORD. All of HIS WORD. CHRIST did not demoninations. There will not be a Catholic, Baptist, Reformed, Lutheren and all the rest sections of Heaven. There is only one way to please or get to GOD. That way is through JESUS CHRIST, only through HIM. By living and the Worshipping GOD in the way HE said. When we Believers put down our own thoughts of Righteousness and pick up and live THE WORD OF GOD, in the way that CHRIST says there will be a differrence in our selves and the World. Then you will see that when one follows CHRIST we work as our body works. Together not apart with different ideas and views, but according to THE WORD OF GOD.

This is about different funtions.A hand will obviously have different ideas and views than an eye.
