Default Re: Spiritual Reality and practical practice

Brother Unto,

Could you tie this into "the ground of the church"? I must be missing something here. How does the allotment of faith have anything to do with our oneness or the ground of the church?
I was addressing your question about how can you have a practical practice of a spiritual reality. I was attempting to give an illustration which would be clear and not in any way controversial. I guess I did not do the job. Sorry.

The teaching of the ground of the church was for the practice of the reality that the Body of Christ, the Church is one. It is one administratively on a local level not on a universal or regional level.

Hope, Don Rutledge
