There are three types of the local church that we need to look at

in the New Testament.

1. The human is a type of the local church.

(1 Corinthians 12:12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.)

A. This type teaches that as the has members, yet is one,

so the local church has many members, yet is local church.

(1 Corinthians 12:12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.)

B. This type teaches that each member of the body, even the feeble ones,

are , so is each member in the local church.

(1 Corinthians 12:22 Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:)

C. This type teaches that there should be no divisions in the body; but

that the members should have the same one for another.

(1 Corinthians 12:25 That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.)

D. This type teaches as the whole body is joined together, and

compacted by that which every joint , according to the

effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of

the body unto the edifying of itself in love, so is the local church.

(Ephesians 4:16 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.)

2. A is a type of the local church.

(Ephesians 5:23-24 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.

24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.)

A. This type teaches that as the submits to her husband, so the

local church is unto Christ.

(Ephesians 5:24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.)

3. The of an Holy Temple in the Lord is a type of the local

church.

(Ephesians 2:21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:)

A. This type teaches that as the building is fitly framed ,

so the local church is to be fitly together.

(Ephesians 2:21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:)

B. This type teaches that when the local church is fitly framed together,

all the members working together, then God is there through the

(Ephesians 2:21-22 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.)
