A former neighbor of ours was a young man in his 40’s. He got a brain infection which ended up taking his life, but he lived on life support for a couple years. They could keep everything functioning artificially for a time, but without the brain controlling the body, he was essentially a living dead man. The body of Christ is no different. We all have our place, but Jesus Christ is the only head. Just as the brain controls the body and every molecule and function of it individually, so we are to submit to the control of Christ and His headship. Anything less is a church on life support.
