The Body in Ephesians and The Call To Ministry
As Paul wrote to The Church in Ephesus, he was used by The Holy Spirit to write what each Christian needs for living and growing in The Body of Christ. As we read through Ephesians, one of the main ideas Paul wrote about was The Christian Church and our relationships within The Body. This Study focuses attention on that theme.
Here is a list of the verses in Ephesians which deal with the Theme -
THE Body of Christ

17 The Father of Glory who gave us wisdom & revelation in him 22 HE is Head over all, 23 HIS Body the Fullness

13 Oneness to the Full Measure & Stature to HIS Glory 14 No longer babes, 16 all The Body each Part a member
24 Put on the new man, 32 be kind to one another and forgiving
