“The body of Christ was bland.”

“Christ has no body on Earth but ours.”

“...part of your responsibility in the body of Christ is to help set the pace for the church by listening and obeying and living Christ.”

“The apostolic gift to the body of Christ brings order and maturity.”

“When we speak of the Church as the Body of Christ we are saying that it is given such union with Christ that it becomes a communion filled and overflowing with the divine love.”

“It is God's earth out of which man is taken. From it he has his body. His body belongs to his essential being. Man's body is not his prison, his shell his exterior, but man himself. Man does not "have" a body; he does not "have" a soul; rather he "is" body and soul. Man in the beginning is really his body. He is one. He is his body, as Christ is completely his body, as the Church is the body of Christ”
