“God’s Temple”
Saturday, November 9, 2024Key Verse
“What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost, which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own (1 Corinthians 6:19)?
Text —1 Corinthians 6:15-20
Message
Your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit: A temple is a place sacred and that is dedicated to God and free from all forms of impurities and profanities. If you are a temple filled with the Spirit of God, you will not yield your body to immorality as a Christian youth. When you defile your body, you pollute God’s temple because your body belongs to God and not to you any longer as a believer. Any honest person will take good care of something that doesn’t belong to him. Our bodies belong to God because He bought them. We have no right to defile God’s property!
Use your body for honest gainful labour; we have no right to be idle or waste it for it belongs to God. Your body should be used to worship God, and not a willing horse in the service of Satan. Don’t use it for immoral incitation as some worldly youths do. Avoid nudity, lustful acts and tattooing of the body. Please, yield yourself to Christ and flee from all appearances of evil.
