My Body is a Temple: Part VIII

1st Corinthians 3:16-17

Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple and that God's Spirit lives in you? If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him; for God's temple is sacred, and you are that temple.

So, this study is really cool. It is so insightful. I am glad to get to do it. And I am knocking down homework at the same time! I think tomorrow I will actually look more into the scriptures from the book.

Proverbs 3:5-8

God gives instruction on how to take care of the body. It entails to fead God and stay away from evil.

Proverbs 4:10-23

God gives instruction on how to take care of the body. God (wisdom) says to write the words of God on your heart. Actually, it is keep them inside your heart. That is how to stay healthy.

Colossians 1:15-27

Jesus is the head of the body, the church. The body is the temple and it is the church, however this is two metaphor's. But is still works the same. When the body, the church, hurts, Christ hurts. Actually, the idea is that everyone hurts who is apart of the body, the church. So, if a brother or sister in Christ struggles spiritually, then everyone hurts for that person struggling. At least, that is what is supposed to happen.

Philippians 1:15-24

Suffering for Christ is gain. That is how Paul looked at things 2000 years ago. If this is how the person God looked at to lead the church then, shouldn't the same attitude be applied today? I think so.

Yeah, tomorrow I will look more at the books, passages, and such from the book I am reading in regards to this study. Johnny Out.
