Wondering

 

1 Corinthians 6:19-20 

19 Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? 20 For you were bought at a price. Therefore glorify God with your body.

 

 Wondering

 

Powers of darkness what are they ... disembodied spirits?

Always they seem to possess a man’s physical frame.

God in His Greatness will not communicate

directly to the body and that not to our shame.

 

My spirit called my own also won’t communicate

directly with the body for that is the (direct) law.

The spiritual and the natural have nothing direct in common.

The natural without the spiritual would not exist at all.

 

Exercising faith to believe ... to acknowledge and accept

that God can be experienced ... living by hope and truth.

My body constitutes a temple of the Holy Spirit

and that my friend should help to watch my every move.

 

What does the Holy Spirit bring to us from the outside?

Not only joy and righteousness ... but also Holiness

And to our souls the Love of Christ and power, health, and strength

to our weary bodies that are weak ... and sick with emptiness.
