As I was studying and pondering:
As I was studying and pondeirng about the church of Jesus Christ I was reading a letter written by an Apostolic Father Ignatius. This reminded me how his exhortaton corespondes with the admontion of the Paul to Colossians in 3:17. Ignatius says: "Moreover, even those things which you do carnally are, in fact, spiritual, for you do everything in Jesus Christ."
