Bible Question:
Elusive Verse I am looking for the verse in the Bible that says something along the lines of people acting as God's hands and God's feet. I cant remember the exact wording well enough to use a word search utility. Please help! |
Bible Answer: Well, I've never heard it put quite like that, but I guess it could be. You must be refering to the feference to the Church as the body of Christ. 1Co 12:27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular. The Amplified bible (see verse above post) puts it quiet clearly Also check out Romans 7:4; 1 Corinthians 10:16; 12:27; Ephesians 4:12; When I see two Christians bickering, I often picture the hand slaping the foot because it is uglier, or the fingers lower rating the toes for being short and stubby. |
