Dysfunctional Christians Are a Part of the Body!

In Bible reading today, my reading today was from I Corinthians 12:27:

"Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it."

As dysfunctional as the Corinthian church was---and when you read through it, it was a pretty messed up bunch---Paul says that they are a part of the body of Christ!

Yipppiiieeeeee!!!!!

I have a chance!

Unbelievers will burn forever in hell for not achieving absolute perfection (all have sinned, the wages of sin is death, man's righteousness is filthy rags), but Christians only have to strive. Sounds fair!
