You Are the New Covenant Temple of God
Duane Bemis
1 Corinthians 3:16
''Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?'' (1 Corinthians 3:16)
Have you ever investigated the mirror and see yourself as God's holy temple? That is exactly how God sees us! Did you know that is how He designed us? We are the temple of God created to hold His Spirit. Are you ready to look deeply into God's holy word to understand more about who we are in Christ Jesus? I find most Christians do not know who they are according to God's word. Because of this they live on an emotional rollercoaster lifestyle. One day they are riding high on the love of God and the next they are ready to walk away from the church and other believers. Come with me as we search through God's word to find our solid foundation, which will allow us to stand upright day after day no matter what the circumstances.
Let us begin with a word of prayer: ''Father of all creation open our hearts, minds, and souls to see Your design. Help us to see the hope that is before us.

Bless us and bless us indeed as we see anew how You look at us. Come and grace us with Your wonderful and marvelous presence. We need a word, which will fill our hearts with Your love, joy, and peace. Amen and amen.''
Let us begin our quest by looking into the scripture, which is stated above. According to God's word we are His temple. According to this scripture, God's Spirit should dwell inside us.
From these two simple ideas I want to travel back into the Old Testament and look at the Temple. And then we will research the temple of God (your heart) being filled with God's Spirit. If we are the temple of God, then we better examine God's word so that we can see how or what our King wants from us concerning this temple idea. The reason we want to exp ...
