Your Body Is The Temple Of The Holy Ghost.Chikamu
You Are Not Your Own.
“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 KJV
When you are in Christ, your body does not belong to you — it belongs to God. “Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.” 1 Corinthians 6:18 KJV.
Fornication is a sin directly against the body, the temple of the Holy Ghost. Not only is fornication a sin against your own body but you also grieve the Holy Spirit when you have sex outside of marriage. Sex is not only a physical act but it’s a spiritual covenant that brings two individuals together as one flesh.
When sex is performed outside of marriage, it is an illegal spiritual trespass against your body and the Holy Spirit. Paul states, “All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.” 1 Corinthians 10:23 KJV. The two may be consenting the act — it may be lawful, but fornication (sex outside of marriage) is a spiritual transgression against the body and against the Holy Ghost.
Your body belongs to Him.
