Body of Christ
The Head and the Body is the most often used description of Christ and the Church. It pictures the unity of believers and the authority of Christ (Rom. 12:5). In the human body, each member has a specific and individual function. Each member, though different, is necessary.
What does it mean that Christ is the Head and the Church is His Body?
