1 CORINTHIANS 12:12-31

So often people in a community become jealous of the strong. But in truth, the only weak members are the one who are uncultivated in their uniqueness. People in a group are not weak because they “don’t fit in,” with the status quo. Diversity is a recipe for success, not failure. But diversity requires a commonality of focus and intent, and a commanding discipline towards submitting to method & role. It is a harder path than the ease of sameness. But it is a better path if it can be mastered. Christian’s should see their diversity of gifts as a “difficult blessing.” This unique equipping, is a “right problem to have,” and it is always present in a church. This is because the ability for polity in a church is a reflection of the polity within the Trinity. Though God is a single entity, he has an eternal diversity of personalities within that function in submission toward a common goal. When we lean into this, it is worshipful. When we eschew this, it is potentially blasphemous.
