We have been talking about how God is calling us as individuals but I want to examine how callings interact with each other
From what you can see how does a modern church start and grow?
Why are there so many churches - what does that say about the body of Christ?
How has capitalism and the worlds system effeced the way we view our gifts?
what is the purpose of our gifts
;-
First Paul establishes what we already know: these gifts are given and governed by the spirit of God
gen 1
By why does Paul talk about idols in this beginning to a log lesson about gifts?
Derek Prime writes in opening up corinthians
Paul establishes the foundations of his answer in six ways:
1.
It is important not to be ignorant about spiritual gifts (v. 1).
Literally, Paul’s term in verse 1 is ‘spiritual matters’ but verse 4 and Paul’s use of the Greek word charisma indicate that spiritual gifts are his subject.
2.
More important than spiritual gifts, however, are new birth and the great proof of spiritual birth—the confession of Jesus as Lord (vv.
2–3).
To call Jesus ‘Lord’ (v.
3), and really to mean it, is the Spirit’s work in a person’s life, since the Lordship of Jesus is not a matter of human discovery but of spiritual revelation.
Preoccupation with spiritual gifts can mean that Christians forget the far greater wonder of their new birth.

MSG I want you to think about how all this makes you more significant, not less.
A body isn’t just a single part blown up into something huge.
It’s all the different-but-similar parts arranged and functioning together.
If Foot said, “I’m not elegant like Hand, embellished with rings; I guess I don’t belong to this body,” would that make it so?
If Ear said, “I’m not beautiful like Eye, limpid and expressive; I don’t deserve a place on the head,” would you want to remove it from the body?
If the body was all eye, how could it hear?
If all ear, how could it smell?
As it is, we see that God has carefully placed each part of the body right where he wanted it.
Gifts shouldn’t be a distraction
What do you notice about this text that you may not have realized before?
This passage says dont be over concerned with your gifts like the world is
what are some consequences of mixing up our priorities when it comes to gifts.
So how do we put this thing in perspective

1 cor 12:12-18 MSG
You can easily enough see how this kind of thing works by looking no further than your own body.
Your body has many parts—limbs, organs, cells—but no matter how many parts you can name, you’re still one body.
It’s exactly the same with Christ.
By means of his one Spirit, we all said good-bye to our partial and piecemeal lives.
We each used to independently call our own shots, but then we entered into a large and integrated life in which he has the final say in everything.
(This is what we proclaimed in word and action when we were baptized.)
Each of us is now a part of his resurrection body, refreshed and sustained at one fountain—his Spirit—where we all come to drink.
The old labels we once used to identify ourselves—labels like Jew or Greek, slave or free—are no longer useful.
We need something larger, more comprehensive.

every gift we have should function as one unit.
but what does that mean?
is that each church is its own body?
What if we took this body thing to the max
What if each person was a cell or part of a Cell?
churches as organs
Organizations as organ functions
so what would happen if we didn’t value one part of the body
