I kept seeing this video of a preacher scrolling through my feed saying, “Rent’s due!!!” I thought he was asking us to send him an offering because the rent was due. After seeing this for several days, the light bulb finally went on. He’s in the gym working out because he is trying to be a good steward of the temple of the Holy Spirit.
The apostle Paul said in 1Cor. 6:19-20, “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? For you were bought at a price therefore, glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.”
Scripture said that we are not our own, but bought with a price. If you’re renting a building that’s owned by someone else, you should try not to violate the standards, but be a good steward and custodian of the property. As keepers of our temples, let’s make sure we’re not letting it deteriorate and wear down. Take good care of your body. Jesus showed His love for us by enduring the crucifixion and paying a heavy price to redeem us.
It is required in stewards, that one be found faithful. (1Cor. 4:2)
