Jesus Has a Body (1 Cor 12)

Reaching Our Metropolis – Episode 18Grace Hill Church, Morgan Hill, CAPastor Tyler Allred | grace-hill.orgThe Corinthian church was dividing over spiritual gifts — ranking them, elevating some, dismissing others.Paul responds with one of the most powerful metaphors in the New Testament: the church as the body of Christ.Spiritual gifts are not earned abilities or personality types. They are grace-gifts (charismata) given for the common good. No part of the body is disposable. No gift is insignificant.In this message, we explore how:• The Spirit’s work always proclaims Jesus as Lord• Grace is the foundation of gifting• The Roman “body” metaphor is radically reworked by Paul• The church images Christ together, not aloneScripture: 1 Corinthians 12Series: Reaching Our Metropolis📺 Watch the video sermon:https://www.youtube.com/@MHGraceHillMore at grace-hill.org
