We are the Temple

[Lindie Adamietz]

The Western Wall is a surviving remnant of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem, which was destroyed by Titus in 68 C.E. The Temple, the center of the spiritual world, was the main conduit for the flow of Godliness into this world. When the Temple stood, there was respect for God, for His - and for each other. There was no doubt about God's existence. There were no atheists. Every body acknowledged one God and understood the genius of His laws. The world was filled with awe of God and love of God.

I wonder, about my being the temple of the Holy Spirit, in this world today.
My Master put within me His Spirit to be the Living Temple for Him in this time. Am I? Am I being that Temple? Am I being "a conduit for the flow of Godliness into this world", or in my home? Is there a respect for the and His Holiness and for other people in my life that is seen by others? Do people begin thinking about God when they talk with me? Am I being that temple of the Holy Spirit? Does my life give off an awe of God and does His love flow thru my temple to a world? How about in my home?
The Tmeple when it stood was the drawing point for people to God. Is my life as well?
I wonder.

Your post seems to be hypothetical in nature. I hope all that read it reflect and see if they truly are the temple of God. To know for sure one can use these verses to measure their life by to figure it out.

Mat 22:36 Master, which [is] the great commandment in the law?

Mat 22:37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

Mat 22:38 This is the first and great commandment.

Mat 22:39 And the second [is] like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

Mat 22:40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

By keeping these commandments we are showing God's love through us to others.

God bless

[Mark]
