In the trinity there are 3 but individuals who do not ever act independently of the others. They chose not to have individuality, but instead they exist inside the love they share. In John 17 Jesus prays that we may be one as He and the Father are one. This is a prime example of how we need to stop being so focused on me as an individual and come into the body of Christ so it can function as one instead of 50 million individuals.
In Genesis God calls the man and woman to become one flesh. They are no longer to be individuals but to become as one. Why is it that we constantly seek out our individuality in every aspect of our lives?
If we begin to forget our RIGHT to be an individual and start focusing on how we may best serve Christ and in so doing serve the His body of believers we will begin to become the bride He is seeking without spot or wrinkle.
