Pastor Billy Myron teaches on positional truth in Christ, focusing on the body of Christ as a purposefully designed structure where believers function as different parts together. He emphasizes that believers are part of a new creation—a completely new entity that did not exist before—where old things have passed away and all things have become new (2 Corinthians 5:17). This new creation is entered at salvation through baptism into Christ, eliminating distinctions such as Jew/Gentile, slave/free, male/female (Galatians 3:27–28; 6:15).
The purpose includes God displaying the exceeding riches of His grace in the ages to come (Ephesians 2:7) and believers being His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works that God prepared beforehand so they would walk in them (Ephesians 2:10). God supplies every need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19) and enriches believers in utterance and knowledge so they lack no gift while awaiting Christ’s return (1 Corinthians 1:4–7). Believers are expected to grow in grace and in the knowledge of the Lord (2 Peter 3:18).
Christians are a royal priesthood and a holy priesthood (1 Peter 2:5, 9; Revelation 1:6), unlike Israel which had a priesthood but was not itself a priesthood. Every believer has direct, bold access to God through the blood of Christ and a new living way (Hebrews 10:19–22). Christ serves as the eternal High Priest after the order of Melchizedek (Hebrews 6:20; 7), offering a once-for-all sacrifice, unlike the repeated offerings under the Law. Believers offer spiritual sacrifices pleasing to God, including the sacrifice of praise (fruit of lips confessing His name), doing good, fellowship/sharing, giving to support ministry (Philippians 4:18), presenting bodies as living sacrifices (Romans 12:1), and even Paul’s potential martyrdom as part of their faith’s priestly service (Philippians 2:17).
Spiritual gifts are given by grace, differing according to the Spirit’s distribution, for the profit of the whole body (Romans 12:4–8; 1 Corinthians 12). These gifts define individual roles within the one body of Christ, where members are interdependent and intentionally placed—not haphazardly assembled. The teaching stresses that inclusion in the body is purposeful: God provides abilities, supplies needs, prepares works, assigns gifts, and grants priestly access so believers can function effectively and pleasingly together for His glory.
