There is only one BODY.
EARLY MORNING MANNA
Galatians 3:26-28 For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
The baptism that Paul speaks of here is the new birth experience of the believer. 1 Corinthians 12:13-14 For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free—and have all been made to drink into[c] one Spirit. 14 For in fact the body is not one member but many {click4more}. Water baptism is an outward expression of what has spiritual happened within the believer but water doesn't put us in Christ it is the Born-Again experience that puts us into the body of Christ, water is altogether another work that was set before us by Jesus when he went under the water, and He said suffer it to be so now, for thus it becomes us to fulfill all righteousness, let me be baptized to set the example for every believer, then John baptized Him. We are one because we placed our faith in Jesus to forgive us our sin and save us, not because we went under the water. Water Baptism is a beautiful ordnance and every believer should desire to be baptized but its not what saves us, the precious blood of Jesus and faith in that blood is our salvation, PRAISE GOD! Amen
