Hi to all , and the question is , where did the Body of Christ begin and NOT where the Church begin that is in Matt 16:18 !!!!
But , where the Body of Christ begin ????
1) Most say the Body of Christ began in Genesis !!!!!
2) Most say that it began in Acts 2 , with the Day of Pentecost !!!!!
3) Some , like me , begin it in Acts 9 , with the Apostle Paul , which is the Dispensation of the Grace of God , Acts 20:24 , 1 Cor 9:17 , Eph 3:1-10 .
4) Others , say , Acts 11 !!!
5) Others , say , Acts 13 !!!
6) Then the Hyper-dispensationalis , say Acts 28 !!!
Rom 1:1 is just one proof and lets look at this verse .
7) Paul , a slave of Jesus Christ , called to be an apostle , SEPARATED unto the Gospel of God .
8) APROHIZO is translated by 3 English words ;
#1 , by the word Boundries !!
#2 , by the word Limited !!
#3 , by the word Separated !!
9) The Greek word APHORIZO , is in the Greek Perfect Tense , which means , Past Action with Continuing Results .
10) And example of the Perfect Tense is when on the cross Jesus said " it is finished " and this in the Perfect Tense .
11) It is also in the Passive Voice , which means that it was Christ that put him into the ministry and NOT Paul .
12) It is also in the Greek Indicative Mood , which means that what Rom 1:1 , is a FACT .
13) So , what the Pefect Tense means , that when Paul was saved, and CALLED to preach the Gospel of God , Paul from that pont in time could NOT teach Judaism or go back and be a Pharisee or , NOT teach the Law , or teach what the 12 taught , BUT ONLY preach the Gospel of God , which means the Gospel of the Grace of God .
14) This is when the Body of Christ began and Paul was the first ONE in the Body of Christ .
