1 Corinthians12:27
27 Now ye are the body of Christ , and members in particular .
Considering you in the whole, as a Church, so you are the Body of Christ:
Considering you particularly as individual Believers, so you are Members of Christ. Some think [non-Latin text not transcribed] signifies in part, intending that true Believers amongst them were Members of Christ, but not others. The Apostle in these words beginneth to apply to them what he had before discoursed concerning the Body natural, and the parts thereof, you are the mystical Body of Christ, which hath a great Analogy with that natural body which you carry about with you.
