Your Body Is The Temple Of God

Your Body Is The Temple If God

Parents, if your children walk out your door not dress appropriately, whose fault is it?

Hummmmm?

“Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ himself? Shall I then take the members of Christ and unite them with a prostitute? Never! Do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body? For it is said, “The two will become one flesh.” But whoever is united with the Lord is one with him in spirit. Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against their own body. Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.”
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭6:15-20‬ ‭NIV‬

A girl bought an iPhone. When her father saw it, He asked her “What was the 1st thing you did when you bought it?

“I put an anti-scratch sticker on the screen and bought a cover for the iPhone” she replied.

“Did someone force you to do so?”

  • “No”

“Don’t you think it’s an insult to the manufacturer?”

  • “No dad! In fact they even recommend using a cover for the iPhone”

“Did you cover it because it was cheap & ugly?”

  • “Actually, I covered it because I didn’t want it to get damage and decrease in value.”

“When you put the cover on, didn’t it reduce the iPhone beauty?”

  • “I think it looks better and it is worth it for the protection it gives my iPhone.”

The father looked lovingly at his daughter and said, “Yet if I had asked you to cover your body which is much more precious than the iPhone, would you have readily agreed???”

She was mute…..
