3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
…
12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:
16 From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

v. 14 is particularly revealing. Needs no interpretation.

Nell, once again, apparently the rest of us are supposed to believe that Drake sees things here that no one else can see.

I see the beautiful operation of love in the body of Christ under the Headship of Christ our Lord, the Son of God.

With all lowliness and meekness, the Apostles ministered and served God to this end.
