Ephesians 4:15‭-‬16 AMP But speaking the truth in love [in all things—both our speech and our lives expressing His truth], let us grow up in all things into Him [following His example] who is the Head—Christ. From Him the whole body [the church, in all its various parts], joined and knitted firmly together by what every joint supplies, when each part is working properly, causes the body to grow and mature, building itself up in [unselfish] love.

WE ARE THE BODY OF CHRIST. And anytime you take a look at your physical body what do you see? You see a reflection or expression of your mind.. THE HEALTHY BODY MUST ALWAYS BE AN EXPRESSION OF THE HEAD/MIND, OR ELSE WE CAN SAY THERE IS A MALFUNCTIONING.

When you look at people with all their preferences and manifestations, you are basically seeing the state of their mind. The way you DRESS, TALK, and CARRY YOURSELF ABOUT is simply a manifestation of what is in your HEAD.

 This is why, you would find some guy always dressed with trousers dropping and his boxers showing, but that gentleman is perfectly fine with it. In his mind, that is the way to look. It might not be so in your mind, but for him, that is it. HIS OUTWARD DRESSING IS JUST AN EXPRESSION OF WHAT IS IN HIS HEAD.

Likewise, the present church is THE BODY OF CHRIST, but there is a little problem, because this body is not fully expressing its HEAD yet. We are not yet ready to be the Bride because we have not fully matured. Because MATURITY IS WHEN THE BODY FULLY EXPRESSES THE HEAD IN ALL THINGS. That’s why Ephesians 4:15 says,

 “but, speaking the truth in love, MAY GROW UP IN ALL THINGS INTO HIM WHO IS THE HEAD —CHRIST — from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies”

Hallelujah! How well are you expressing Christ (who is your head) in your living? Selah!
