What happens when the fetus is finally complete in the womb?
When the fetus is finally complete in the womb, with fingers, fingernails, and eyes fully formed, the cell-making process stops at just exactly the right time. Then delivery occurs. The body rarely makes a mistake in this process, and completion leads to birth.
Les explains that at the beginning of pregnancy, the mother's body immediately begins to put all different kinds of cells into exactly the right place. By the time nine months are over, the little fetus has all its fingers and fingernails, the eyes, and everything is now complete. The body rarely makes a mistake, stopping its cell-making process at just exactly the right time. When the baby is finally complete, delivery occurs. Les then parallels this to the church: God has been adding individual believers from all around the world—Chinese, Japanese, Russians, Germans, French, British, Americans, Canadians, whatever—until the church is complete.
