The Body and Feet: The function of beautiful feet

A detailed Summary of The Body and Feet: The function of beautiful feet


[1] The feet cover many different roles in the Bible. However, I would like to show you how they can be 'beautiful' by carrying the word of God.

[2] In this way, they work as part of the body of Christ. The feet are a representative member of that body.

To look at a text where Paul mentions the 'foot' [=feet] as a member of the body of Christ, let's go to:

1 Corinthians 12:12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.

1 Corinthians 12:14 For the body is not one member, but many.

1 Corinthians 12:15 If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

What does a foot (or the feet) do as a member of the body of Christ?

A natural perspective can help us understand the spiritual:

* The feet carry, or move the body.

* Movement can be in various directions (e.g., forwards, backwards, or sideways)

* The feet are the means by which we stand and do not move.

 Jesus took a towel and washed his disciples'


How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!

A lot of events in the Bible, like this miracle, have a double meaning and point forward to the kingdom.
