1 Corinthians 12:7 'But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.'

The word profit is the Greek word 'sumphero'

which literally means to 'carry together'.

We are one body in Christ, called to build one another up in Christ.

We have different roles to fulfil,

but when Christ is our life then we are one in Him.

We are not clergy and laity. All believers are priests unto God.

We minister Christ together:

His life; His word; and His power work in us equipping us for ministry.

Together we grow in Christ offering as priests

a heart filled with thanksgiving and praise;

a life filled with love for the Lord Jesus Christ;

and a mind set to obey His word and to walk in His ways.
