Atonement » Made by jesus » Divinely ordained
but when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the Law, to redeem those under the Law, that we might be adopted as sons.
for mine eyes have seen thy salvation, which thou hast prepared before the face of all the peoples;
Blessed be God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly regions in Christ; according as he chose us in him, before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him; having in love predestinated us for himself to be adopted as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of his will, read more.

Body » The body of Christ
Now I rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up instead that which is wanting of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh on behalf of his body, which is the church;
For as in one body we have many members, and the members have not all the same office, so we, though many, form one body in Christ, and each of us is a member of it in common with the rest. Having then gifts which dither according to the grace which hath been bestowed upon us, if we have prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of our faith; read more.
or if service, let us attend to the service; he that teacheth, let him attend to teaching; or he that exhorteth, to exhortation; he that giveth, let him do it with liberality; he that presideth over others, with diligence; he that doeth deeds of mercy, with cheerfulness.

Know ye not, that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them members of a harlot? God forbid! Know ye not, that he who is connected with a harlot is one body with her? "For the two," saith he, "shall become one flesh;" but he that is connected with the Lord is one spirit with him.
The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a partaking of the blood of Christ? the loaf which we break, is it not a partaking of the body of Christ? For we, the many, are one loaf, one body; for we all share in that one loaf.
For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body, so it is with Christ. For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or freemen; and were all made to drink one Spirit. For the body also is not one member, but many. read more.
If the foot say, Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body, is it for this reason not of the body? And if the ear say, Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body, is it for this reason not of the body? If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling? But as it is, God set the members every one of them in the body, as it pleased him. And if they were all one member, where would be the body? But now there are, indeed, many members, but one body. And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of thee; nor, again, the head to the feet, I have no need of you. Nay, still more, those members of the body which seem to be weak, are necessary; and what we think to be less honorable parts of the body, upon these we bestow more abundant honor; and our unseemly parts have more abundant seemliness; while our seemly parts have no need. But God so put the body together, as to give special honor to that part which lacked, that there might be no schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care one for another. And so if one member suffereth, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it. Now ye are the body of Christ, and members individually. And God appointed some in the church to be, in the first place, apostles, in the second place, prophets, in the third place, teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, those of helping and of governing, divers kinds of tongues. Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles? Have all the gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret? But desire earnestly the greater gifts. And furthermore I show you by far the most excellent way.

There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye were called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all, and in all. But to each one of us was given the grace [which he hath] according to the measure of the gift of Christ. Wherefore he saith: "When he ascended on high, he led captive a train of captives, and gave gifts to men." Now what is implied in his ascending, but that he also descended into the lower parts of the earth? He who descended is the same as he who ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things. And he gave some to be apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; for the perfecting of the saints for the work of ministration, for the building up of the body of Christ; till we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a fullgrown man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro and borne about by every wind of teaching, through the dishonest tricks of men, and their cunning in the wily arts of error; but cleaving to truth in love, may grow up in all things unto him who is the head, even Christ; from whom the whole body, well put together and compacted by means of every supplying joint, is, according to the working of each part in its proportion, building itself up in love.

Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands, as to the Lord; for the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church,he, who is the Saviour of the body. But as the church is subject to Christ, so let wives be to their husbands in everything. read more.
Husbands, love your wives, as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself up for it, that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the bath of the water in the word; that he himself might present to himself the church, glorious, having no spot or wrinkle, or any such thing, but that it should be holy and without blemish. In like manner husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his own wife loveth himself; for no one ever yet hated his own flesh, but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as Christ doth the church; for we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. "For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they two shall be one flesh." This mystery is a great one; but I am speaking of Christ and of the church. However, do ye also severally love each one his own wife as himself; and let the wife see that she reverence her husband.
