In 1 Corinthians 12.. it is often assumed the body in question is all redeemed.
But is that the body in question?
Because for one thing..Paul calls the church at Corinth...'ye are the body of Christ ' (KJB)
Then the language used to describe the body is in terms of all members suffering, while one member suffers.. the hand cannot say to the eye I can no need of you etc..
How is this describing all redeemed?
It is describing the church at Corinth though as a body in themselves.
So.. I know you may say .. it is about both the body at Corinth and all redeemed..but to that I ask where?
Where in 1 co 12 is it all redeemed?
All redeemed:
*all members do not suffer when one does
*it is not unified and it's near impossible to unify all redeemed.
* it has no doctrine
*it does not meet
How does that apply to 1 co 12?
