Temple of the Holy Spirit
I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Saturday morning, the 12th of September, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.
We go to 1 Corinthians 6:19:
“Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit…?”
Then we back up a little bit to 1 Corinthians 3:16:
“Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?”
Some of us are not doing well, are we? No, we are sick in our bodies, we are sick in our minds, and we are very sick in our spirits. Your little boy, your little girl, driving to work with you or to school, ask them a question, “Can you put diesel into a petrol fuel motorcar?” Of course not! What will happen? It will stop immediately. Ask them if your motorcar needs to be serviced regularly or not? No, well we don’t have the money to service our car. Well, it won’t last. It is going to stop, it is going to break down. These are essentials. Now, why do we take care of our vehicles, but we don’t take care of our physical bodies?
I want to say something very serious to the grown-ups. Pornography is not an option. You are pouring filth into your body every day, and then you are wondering why you are in a state of depression, anxiety, and fear. We need to destroy that thing today. Get rid of it. Some movies we are watching - let us ask ourselves a serious question. If you had to sit there on your own, in your flat, in your house and watch a movie, ask yourself a question. Would I be comfortable watching this movie with the filthy language and the suggestiveness, with Jesus Christ sitting next to me? Of course not. Well then we need to stop doing that.
We need to eat properly, sleep properly, but I am not talking so much about that. I am talking about the spiritual context. If you want the Holy Spirit to work in your life, He will not come into your life if you are living in sin. You have to deal with it today. That is the problem, and that spiritual sin turns into physical sickness and disease. You go to the doctor, you are asking him to help you, but you will not stop smoking, madam. It is killing you. You will not stop drinking, sir, but it is poisoning your system. Stop it today, and I am telling you, you will not have to go to the doctor because Jesus Christ will be dwelling within you.
Have a wonderful day.
Goodbye.
