1 | Temple of the Holy Spirit | 1 Cor 6:19 | Ngop | 105438 | ||
Emmaus, Greetings and thank you for your response. But God dwells in the flesh of Jesus because Jesus' flesh is not from dust. It is the Word made flesh ( John 1:1 ). In the Temple of Jerusalem, God's glory not God dwells in it ( I think; not so sure ).And in Exodus 25:8, God dwells among the people not in the Tabernacle. It think it means, God's presence was with them. And if I may add, in Roman 7:14, our flesh is sold as slave to sin. God and sin are like oil and water that will never mix. How will then the Holy Spirit dwells in our sinful body. God bless Ngop |

Hi Ngop, You have evidently done some deep thinking about the Holy Spirit. You have talked about the Breath of God. I would have you consider that the breath that was breathed into Adam was not the Spirit Himself. I would also have you consider that the Spirit in Ezekiel 11:19 says "And I shall give them one heart, and shall put a new spirit within them. And I shall take the heart of stone out of their flesh and give them a heart of flesh, that they may walk in My statutes and keep My ordinances, and do them. Then they will be My people, and I shall be their God." When we become a Christian we are given a new spirit. Ezekiel 18:30ff says, "Repent and turn away from all your transgressions, so that iniquity may not become a stumbling block to you. Cast away from you all your transgressions which you have committed, and make yourselves a new heart and a new spirit! For why will you die, O house of Israel?" When we join ourselves to the Lord we are one spirit. 1 Corinthians 6:17, "But the one who joins himself to the Lord is one spirit [with Him]." Emmaus has pointed out that we are physical and spiritual. It would be good to consider that as we look at 1 Corinthians 6:20. Right now I have in my personal copy written in pencil, "and in your spirit, which are God's." So I would go with the NKJ, "For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's." 1 John 3:24, Ephesians 5:30, and Romans 7:4 might be considered while you look at what kind of body we are and just who and/or what we have in us. From the heart, Ray |
