“
Some Christian teachers said that our human body is real and that the Body of Christ is just a figure of speech. They were wrong. Actually, our body is a picture, a figure, and a type of the real body, which is Christ's Body (Rom. 12:4-5). For us to understand what the Body of Christ is, God created a human body. The human body is a figure. It is not the real body. The real body is Christ's Body. The Body of Christ is not a figure or a type but a reality. Since our human body is a mystery, how much more is the Body of Christ a mystery! No one can fully explain it.”

Anyone want to take a shot at putting this in plain English? So I can’t figure out if my body is real or not. I had a very bad back ache this morning, probably not real, just probably as I was told once, “pain is just weakness leaving your body”!
