The human body has many parts, but the many parts make up only one body. So it is with the body of Christ. Some of us are Jews, some are Gentiles, some are slaves, and some are free. But we have all been baptized into Christ's body by one Spirit, and we have all received the same Spirit. [1 Corinthians 12:12-13]I'm beginning to wonder if the Body of Christ has a cold or something. It seems (at least in my circle) that people are just falling away, unwilling to help others in the body, and are simply not doing anything to show they are a part of the body of Christ. What's the deal? Where's the love we are suppose to be known by? In my opinion the parts of the body are not working together anymore, they are all doing whatever they please. This doesn't make for an effective body. If we are his feet, his hands, his words, than why are we not walking, touching, telling?
