But I agree with that. Who else could be head of the Body of Christ, except Christ?

What else could all the rest of us be, but members of His Body?

The passages from Paul about Christ's Mystical Body shed brilliant light on one of my absolute favorite themes of Scripture. I have been meditating on it and living it for nearly 60 years.

Why would you think I would disagree?

You recoiled at my suggestion that The Church might honor Christ as it’s ONLY Head.

“Eliminate the office, and — as is Scriptural — finally declare Christ as the Forever Only Legitimate Head of The Church (ref. Eph 1:22, 4:15, 5:23; Col. 1:18).”

Peter’s restoration was not to Headship, but to Leadership.
