Default Re: Blending

I don’t know about the meaning of the Greek word translated as blending in the verse cited to start this thread. But the sentence it is used in says that God has done it. So why do we think we should be trying so hard to “blend”? That’s another silly thing Lee had us working hard at that God had already done for us. When I let go of that teaching I was really freed to enjoy what God had already done to “blend” me into His body. Praise Him!

It's used only twice in the NT. Again in Hebrews 4:2, where it's translated "united" "mixed" & "coupled."
