Title: Temples of the Holy Ghost: 1st Corinthians 1 v6

1st CORINTHIANS 1 C6
Here is what Chuck has to say – “Our bodies being temples of the Holy Ghost. We as Christians are posessed, occupied and inhabited by His Holy Spirit. We are posessed by and for God. Our bodies were made for God.” Now my tapesponder, Bill Weaver (also from U.S.) – “Our body is a schrine for the indwelling Holy Spirit. You don’t own yourself, someone paid dearly for you. Let you body be a credit to Him. You can get intouch with God through your Holy Spirit. The greatest gift I ever got was to be Spirit-filled. Read 1st Corinthians 2 v14 or better still 1st Cor. 2 10-15. Now the natural man does not receive the things from the Spirit of God. To him they ate nonesence. Morever he is unable to grasp them because they are evaluated through the Spirit. John 3 – about being born again and Spirit filled . Then another subject, women in the Church, women not to talk or teach in Church. The reference is actually to Soul and to the Spirit. The Soul is the will of the flesh. Then the spiritual body is connectred to God. If you read the Bible literally you are not Spirit filled. He dosent know anything about the Spirit. He has to read it literally, he can’t read it any other way. The Spirit is like Jesus who is the bridegroom and the Soul is the bride, the Soul is the woman. The Soul of the woman is trying to get ready to meet the Spirit of God and this is your Spirit the husband. If you read the scriptures and substitute the words Soul and Spirit, this is how it would sound – Let your Soul keep silent in the Churches because the Soul is not Spirit filled. It dosent know anything about God. The Soul is something which is you but it dosent know between good and bad and it is always trying to please you. It wants to give you what you want. It works for you whether for good or bad………..
These views are not necessarily my own views as I would go with a more simple view. One of the main things is that God is 3 in one.
Father, Son and Holy Spirit
