You Are Gods Temple

2 Replies

Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst? 1 Corinthians 3:16

When Jesus said he was going to raise the temple up in 3 days, everyone thought he was crazy. That’s because they thought he was talking about the physical temple but what he really was referring to was the resurrection. We are the temple of God, you are sacred washed by the blood of Christ.

If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy that person; for God’s temple is sacred, and you together are that temple. 1 Corinthians 3:17

Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven. Our God is a just God, no crime will go unpunished. Those who are persecuting Christians and children will receive the wrath of God on judgement day.

Do not deceive yourselves. If any of you think you are wise by the standards of this age, you should become “fools” so that you may become wise. 1 Corinthians 3:18

Professing themselves to be wise they became fools, nobody can truly comprehend the greatness of God. Stop pretending you know all the answers, because nobody does. Humility is the beginning of wisdom. They say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks, well maybe that old dog needs to be reborn.

Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.” John 2:19

When Jesus said this he shocked an entire nation, they hated and feared him, because they didn’t understand what he was saying. Don’t lean on your own understanding, trust in God he has a bigger plan.

Thru Jesus we are the temple of God, we have been reborn and transformed. It’s important your treat yourself this way and keep it holy. You are a reflection of Christ, let the world see him thru you in Jesus name Amen

Jesus Christ Our Foundation

9 Replies

By the grace God has given me, I laid a foundation as a wise builder, and someone else is building on it. But each one should build with care. For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 3:10-11

No matter who you are, eventually your life will be rocked by significant event. The foundation that your standing on will determine your outcome. When we foolishly build on sand, eventually the storms of life come in and we sink, but when we build on the rock we can withstand any storm.

If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, their work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each person’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:12-13

Many believe money will buy them a false sense of security, but green paper won’t save your life. There is only who can save and that’s our Lord Jesus. Don’t build your life on false idols,build your life on a solid foundation.

If what has been built survives, the builder will receive a reward. If it is burned up, the builder will suffer loss but yet will be saved–even though only as one escaping through the flames. 1 Corinthians 3:14-15

There will be fire and trials in life, but it will only make you stronger, the testing of your faith produces perseverance.  Those who have deep roots of faith can withstand the storms, but those who faith is shallow will collapse at the first trial.

“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. Matthew 7:24

Jesus told us those who follow him are building on “The Rock” . Why? Because Jesus is the truth , life, and the way. Follow false idols and false religions is like building on the sand, there is no foundation or hope

If your storm hasn’t hit its coming, be ready. Build your foundation on Jesus Christ, follow truth, persevere under trials in Jesus Name Amen.

The Power of The Holy Spirit

And so it was with me, brothers and sisters. When I came to you, I did not come with eloquence or human wisdom as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God. For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. I came to you in weakness with great fear and trembling.   1 Corinthians 2:1-3

At one time Paul hated Christianity, as many people in the world do today. But when Jesus revealed himself and the truth to Paul he was transformed. Paul was not a weak man by any standard, but when he came face to face with Lord Jesus Christ he dropped to his knees and became his servant.

My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power, so that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on God’s power. 1 Corinthians 2:4-5

Many will say they don’t understand God, or they don’t understand the Bible. That’s because you have not asked God for his wisdom thru the Holy Spirit.  All wisdom comes from God and he comforts, teaches, and empowers us thru the Holy Spirit

We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature, but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing No, we declare God’s wisdom, a mystery that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began. None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 1Corinthians 2:6-8

This world is temporary and all the kingdoms and nations will fall and be ruled under the King of Kings , Jesus Christ. God has had a plan to restore this world since the book of Genesis, and he is going to carry out that plan whether you believe or not.

However, as it is written: “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived” — the things God has prepared for those who love him– these are the things God has revealed to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. 1 Corinthians 9-10

How can our human minds comprehend the awesomeness of God? He speaks planets into existence, he breathes life into dust. Don’t rely on your own wisdom to figure out God, rely on the Holy Spirit.

For who knows a person’s thoughts except their own spirit within them? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. What we have received is not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may understand what God has freely given us. 1 Corinthians 11-12

The Holy Spirit is a gift from God, but it will only be giving to you if you ask God for it. We have free will and nothing is forced upon us, if you truly seek life and knowledge, ask God for his Holy Spirit to be poured upon you.

This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual realities with Spirit-taught words 1 Corinthians 2:13

When I read books like Psalms 22 or Isaiah 55 it brings shivers down my spine. Thousands of years before Jesus even existed, his crucifixion was written about. How could David or Isaiah know any of this? The Holy Spirit

The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit. for, “Who has known the mind of the Lord so as to instruct him?” But we have the mind of Christ. 1 Corinthians 2:14-16

Without the Holy Spirit The Bible seems foolish, but if you truly thirst for knowledge, if you truly want eternal life. Seek and you shall find it, knock and the door shall be opened. Ask God for his wisdom of the Holy Spirit today and accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior Amen

Wisdom of God

Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. 1 Corinthians 1:25

Man always tries to outsmart God, we try cloning animals and humans, genetically modify our food, we even try to control the weather. However we need to acknowledge that God is the almighty Creator, there is only one true God and it’s him. He speaks planets into existence, he breathed life into our bodies, we can’t begin to comprehend his awesome power.

Brothers and sisters, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth.  1 Corinthians 1:26

The world loves to attack Christians, they love to call us naïve to believe in Creation, they love to call us weak for loving our enemies like Christ, but I would rather be wrong in my lifetime than be wrong for all eternity.

But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. 1 Corinthians 1:27

Many believe they can live without God, but we are all sinners and fall short of the Glory of God. Think about it the world chases after, even kills for, green paper called money. You talk about shaming the wise, instead the world should be chasing Jesus for there soul. Money won’t save your soul only Jesus Christ will.

God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things–and the things that are not–to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before him. 1 Corinthians 1:28-29

Jesus is the King of Kings yet when he walked this Earth nobody even noticed him. He was so common when they came to arrest him in the Garden of Gethsemane the guards had to ask who he was twice, even though he was standing right in front of them.

God is not impressed with your ego, God is not impressed with your bank account, God is not impressed with your possessions.  God looks at your heart, is he impressed with yours?

It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God–that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. Therefore, as it is written: “Let the one who boasts boast in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 30-31

What are you boasting about today? Let us boast about our Lord Jesus who took the nails on the cross for your sins. Let us boast about our Heavenly Father , who had enough mercy on us to send his only begotten Son.

It’s time for us to get over ourselves, and its time to boast about Jesus Christ, The Name above all Names, The King of Kings, The Lord of Lords, in Jesus Name Amen
