No schism in the body

by royowen

There is no schism in Christ's frame,
nor is there weakness in his name.
For those that dwell within their pride,
indeed will fall, on frail tails ride.

Christ's body are those who believe,
and not those in whom God will grieve.
If you're in Christ you have great worth.
for God created man on Earth.

Yes, all are equal in the faith,
for all are welcome through hope's gate.
God lifts one up to stand approved,
and all are safe, cannot be moved.

There is no schism in Christ's frame,
nor is there weakness in his name.
When you believe you are His child,
you stand as righteous, undefiled.

1 Corinthians 12:12-20
Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many. Now if the foot should say, Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body it would not for that reason stop being part of the body. And if the ear should say, Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body it would not for that reason stop being part of the body, If the whole body were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body were an ear, where would the sense of smell be? But in fact God has placed the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be If they were all one part, where would the body be? As it is, there are many parts, but one body.
