Lesson 21 - The Body of Christ in the World. The Church is a radically gifted and radically flawed emodiment of Christ even while it is a human institution. It is a means of God's grace though it members are not always grace-filled. It is a work of the Holy Spirit though some members are not born again by the Spirit.
