We are all grafted into the vine through mercy and grace, but I am speaking about the church and body made of Jew and Gentile that Christ prepared for us when He ascended to the Father and gave gifts according to (Eph 4:8-16). You are a believer of the NT church and body under grace and not the letter of the law. The body is a living organism that God has placed every believer within this dispensation and time of the Gentiles. As a believer in Christ (Yeshua) we have been saved and made a member of that body being placed in Christ. We are to function as one member of one body made up of many members.
Every believer has a measure of Christ and His faith in them that we need to receive from one another as a supply of the Spirit so that the body can be edified in the love and grace of God. There is dependency involved in that supply. The supply that I have from God, as a member of His body, can not be supplied by another and it is the same for each member. Together when we are giving of our supply, we are knit together and function together as one body and not as all these independent members running around doing service to God and keeping His commandments. We keep the commandments as a body and edify one another as a body and we grow up together into our head (Christ) together as a body. This is what God's redeemed church is doing as a body, a living organism revealing an invisible God as the living God through the life of the body of Christ.

The only "living organism" of which I know is the Body of Christ, Yeshua. He is the Head, and all believers make up the rest of the Body. The Body cannot think without a Head. We should all work in conjunction for the good of the Body and the glory of the Head, Yeshua. There is NO mystery. His Body members are everywhere, and they have assumed different labels until they are called to recognize once and for all they belong first to the Head and then to each other. No mystery, nothing there to be revealed.
When simple points are mystified and changed to unrecognizable dogma for the ignorant to be deceived, we are not recognizing the Head, Yeshua. My teaching always comes from Yeshua, as does the teaching of every individual who has called upon Him in Spirit and Truth. Should Yeshua, Jesus, have given Paul anything at all to teach, this too is from Yeshua. Paul always gave glory to Yeshua for what he did and his ministry.
Now, you may belong to Paul, but he belongs to Yeshua, Jesus, amen.
