Faith and Weight Loss (1 of 3)

1 Corinthians 6:19-20
1.0 The Body is a Gift!
1.1 The body is a priceless gift.
A) When Jesus came to the earth, He came in a body.
B) Our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit.
1. A temple is a sacred place-a sanctuary.
2. A temple is a physical place that we use to minister onto the Lord. Our bodies must be viewed as instruments of God.
C) We are to honor God with our bodies.
1. Our bodies must be properly cared for morally, nutritionally, psychologically, spiritually, and even physically so that we can fulfill ALL the will of God.
Note: Paul was attempting to destroy reasoning that says: ''The body is temporal. Therefore, we can do whatever we want to with it sexually and behaviorally because it will soon perish.''
2. The work of redemption includes the whole person-spirit, soul, and body. We were bought at a price.
3. You should not despise, reject, or hate your body no matter how it looks. God created the body (Gen. 2:7)!
Joke: Waiting for a taxi and Denzel Washington instead of a short guy wearing a Yankees' cap.
Quote: In the article, Why Do Women Hate Their Bodies, medical doctor, Carolyn M. Ross says: ''[The 2012 stats say that] 80 percent of women in the U.S. are dissatisfied with their appearance. And more than 10 million are suffering from eating disorders.''
