We find fun and pleasure with each other, we celebrate occasions with each other, we pursue adventures with each other... but we never learn to bear each others burdens, we never want to find ourselves being weighed down by others that hinders our personal goals, we step back and shut people out when they only saddens us.
1 Corinthians 12 have lost its way with many of us on the church, we are still self serving to our happiness... because we think we have the "rights" for it.
Verse 26 says that if one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it. Seem to me like people tend to only stay on the honored and rejoicing part, but people bail when suffering comes in...
Where is the Gospel in this?
