12The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ.
-Beginning of a super common passage. I would think that unit in this verse means something that is meant to do something. So the body, or church, is something that is together to do something. It has many parts but it forms one thing. It's like anything else in the world. A computer is made of many parts but its put together to do be one thing. So it is the same with God.
13For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink.
-This is the case becuase of the baptism of hte Holy Spirit. This makes us all together. Doesn't matter our background, but when we take part in this we become part of the same body. So we should think like this as well about our brothers. We need to learn to work together and love one another cause we're the same thing.
