    Paul tells us how we can function as the body of Christ and thus, present the likeness of Christ to a lost world.

    Once again, the Apostle Paul discusses the unity of the local church. Here he uses the picture of a body to speak about how we are to function in unity. From Paul’s discussion of how God sees His church as being like a body, we learn four things about how the body (the local church) is to function. ...read more

    The Gifts Of The Holy Spirit - Part 1 Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Feb 7, 2011
     | 3,876 views

    The Gifts of the Holy Spirit has split churches and The Church for thousands of years. Paul delves into this lively and controversial subject in the next three chapters of 1st Corinthians. His reason for the discussion is not to provide a complete guide t
