'One-anothers'

The New Testament has given instructions concerning the relationship believers are to have for other members of the body. A portion of these commands have been given by God in a "one-another" format. These biblical imperatives form the basis of a spiritual ministry each believer is to have to one-another locally, and to the global body of Christ.

It is an absolute necessity that the focus of the body ministering to itself be that of a spiritual nature. If this is not the case, the great disparity of financial and material goods between some members of the global body can and will be a great hindrance to the body truly ministering to itself as God has commanded.

Every member must do its share, as God has designed it, and that ministry should always emphasize the spiritual over the material.

Rejoice in the midst of Sufferings

1 Peter 5:8-10 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. 9 Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. 10 But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. 1 Peter 1:6-7 In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials, 7 so that the tested genuineness of your faith--more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire--may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

The Body

Romans 12:4-5 For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function, so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another.
