The Body of Christ
Introduction:
What is the Body of Christ? Is it the same thing as the Church? Perhaps this very simple definition will help to explain it. The Body of Christ consists of believers in all denominations from every area and race of the world who believe in Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord.
The Christian Church, which is the Body of Christ, was born on Pentecost, fifty days after Christ's resurrection. That was the day the Holy Spirit was given to the followers of Jesus.

The Birth of the Church

“When the day of Pentecost came, they (probably about 500 of Jesus’ disciples) were all together in one place.

They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven.”

7. Question
Through persecution and later evangelism, the followers of Jesus became His witnesses in Jerusalem, in Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth just as Jesus had prophesied. Everywhere Christians went, they took along their living vibrant faith. The Church grew until it encompassed the entire world.
The Bible teaches us that the Christian life cannot be lived in a vacuum. As planned by the Lord, it is to be lived in the company and close fellowship with other Christians.
The Scripture: 1 Corinthians 12:12, 13
“The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body – whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free – and we were all given the one Spirit to drink.”

8. Question
Our Relationship with Others
In this wonderful section on the Body of Christ, Paul explains our relationship to one another.
The Scripture: 1 Corinthians 12:20, 22-26
“As it is, there are many parts, but one body….Those parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, and the parts that we think are less honorable we treat with special honor. And the parts that are unpresentable are treated with special modesty, while our presentable parts need no special treatment. But God has combined the members of the body and has given greater honor to the parts that lacked it, so that there should be no division in the body, but that its part should have equal concern for each other.”
