Bible Question (short): Your thoughts? |
Question (full): I understand your thought. Now I ask why these offices are appointed? It seems to me that they were appointed for the building up of the body through love. This thought is mirrored twice in the verses you quote! Additionally, I do not see that these are offices appointed to a specific church, though we do use the nomenclature regarding some in our local churches, and I offer as evidence to this end that these "offices" are to "build up the body," which we both know is the one true church to which all Christians belong! My question remains: Is there a correlation between these appointments and the passage in Romans? Based on the scripture referenced, I must agree. Your thoughts? |
