You are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.
The body has many parts, but all of its many parts make up that one body. It’s the same with Christ.
So each of you must stop lying, and you must speak the truth to your neighbor, because we are all part of the same body.
who makes the whole body grow and build itself up in love. Each part of the body does its work in connection and cooperation with all the other parts.
There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called.
In that likeness, there’s no Gentile or Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave, or free. Christ is all, and he is in all.
These people aren’t connected anymore to the head, who is Christ. God makes the whole body grow as it’s guided by the head and held together by its tendons and ligaments.
You can’t drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons too. You can’t have a part in both the Lord’s table and the table of demons.
