Where is this in the Bible? Since when is the "
Body of Christ" the governing principle? And just who is this "
Body of Christ?" Notice that this "
Body of Christ" which Ron Kangas is talking about has nothing to do with the real "Body of Christ" since the real "Body of Christ" is continually condemned by LSM as "poor, degraded Christianity."
Ron Kangas says this as though this is some long established maxim of the faith. Where's the Lord, the Son of Man, the Head of the body, is this equation? Is He not the "governing principle?"
Also, where did this organization called "the work" come from? How did it get elevated to the same status as the church?
Every time I read something from LSM, all sorts of questions arise in my mind. And to think that I used to take it all for granted.
