As you reflect on Christ as the Head and the church as the body, what insights come to mind?
-
Christ is the most important part of the body, and we are… not minor or inferior in a bad way but truly, he is to whom all authority and control belong to, and causes any of the other body to work together.
-
Christ being the Head of the Church unites the body and causes all the body to work as it is intended. He is head in authority and in empowerment of the body to carry out His will and good pleasure. If the body is not being directed by the Head there is always a disconnect and brokenness becomes evident.
-
To submit to His headship, being my Lord and Savior by submitting to His words. Thru obedience and humility I will submit to the local church too and be a “productive” member as I contribute my God-given talent for the glory of God and as I await for His coming.
-
I think about the ways that my body is doing some strong things, but it is all directed by the brain inside my head. without the brain, my body would be a lifeless bag of bones.
-
Without the head nothing else works. The head is at the top of the body so it shows we have to put God above everything else.
