Keep your temple pure

Published:Mar 31, 2019

Don’t you keep the temples pure? Yes. Why do you do it? Because God who is holy resides in it. Right. So why do you keep your body and the mind impure? Doesn’t God also reside in your body? Have you forgotten that you are created in His image and that your body is also a temple to the Holy Spirit? If not, then why do you misuse and abuse the body through improper activities? Like the temples of stone and marble, you must keep this temple of flesh and bone pure as well through right thoughts and right activities. Stop abusing it and misusing it. Your body is your temple. Keep it pure and be holy.

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 honour God with your bodies.

1 Corinthians, 6:19-20
