Key Verse: "Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all."
- Ephesians 1:23 KJV
In the mind of God, and as chosen in Christ, the Church
is a perfect body. It is, therefore, the fullness of Christ. Just as our
head and members, in their union with each other, form one perfect
harmonious body, so it is with Christ and the Church. As the natural head
would be incomplete without the body, as the body would be incomplete
without the head, so it is with Christ mystical, and his body the Church.
Each needs the other, and the union of both makes the whole complete.
