Where does the word church appear in New Testament?
the church is nothing but the body of chirst as per Ephasian4:12 and colosians 1:24 therfore jesus has one body while he living in this world therefore we can conclude one church=one christ=one body= The Church of Christ
How does the New Testament compare the church to a body?
The NT doesn't compare the local church (the church you go to) with a body. But it does compare the universal church (all believers in Christ) to a body.The universal church is like a body because it is made up of many parts (believers).These parts should function in harmony together - just as the many parts of a body function together.No part is more important than another part. Every part has a function.Just as a head leads/controls a body, Christ is the head of the universal church.Comment: Just what do you mean by universal as a mainstream church carries this as part of its name? The Bible calls the Church Jesus established, 'the Church of God,' in about 12 places in the N.T.. Is this your 'universal' Church?? This Church, by the way, has always had the 'little flock.'
How many times is the word body is mention in the bible?
152 times, but many of these references, especially in the New Testament refer to the body of Christ and to the church.
