Fulfilling my Role in God’s Church

1 Corinthians 12:12-27

For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:10

The Truth about my role in Church

1.I was designed to be a of God’s Church

Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.  Vs. 27

God’s Church is an not an

Now you are the body of Christ Vs. 27a

God’s Church is yet

 Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many. Vs. 12-14

2.God created me for a in His Church

But in fact God has placed the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be. Vs. 18

My Role is

Now if the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” it would not for that reason stop being part of the body. And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,” it would not for that reason stop being part of the body. If the whole body were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body were an ear, where would the sense of smell be? Vs. 15-17

3.I others just as I am

The eye cannot say to the hand, “I don’t need you!” And the head cannot say to the feet, “I don’t need you!” On the contrary, 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.

Vs. 21-23

4.As God’s Body, we are with one another

But God has put the body together, giving greater honor to the parts that lacked it, so that there should be no division in the body, but that its parts should have equal concern for each other.  If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it. Vs. 24-26

How will I start serving at the Call Church today?
