Hi Cornelius , I will have to repectfully disagree , and here is why !!!
#1 , THE entrance to the Body of Christ is found in one verse , 1COR 12:13 , and it is by the Holy Spirit .
#2 , Eph 1:22 says , And hath put THE all things ( the KJV left out the Article " the " out , when it should be there ) under His feet , and gave Him to be the HEAD over all things to the Assembly .
#3 , Then in verse 23 , Which is His body , the fulness of Him that filleth al in all .
#4 , That means that Christ is the Head of the Body of Christ and the Assembly is the Body .
#5 , So the answer to your question is , all Christians , who are saved are " in Christ " and live in the
Body of Christ , and there are more verses that detail that Premise .

Rom 8:9-10
9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
KJV
