DAMNABLE CARNALITY DESTROYS SOULS

“Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?”

‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭3:16‬ ‭KJV‬‬

This is one of many warnings not to be taken lightly. For those who have tasted of the good word of God and received enlightenment from the Holy Spirit, and then, after awhile, when persecution or tribulation confronts them because of the word, they are offended and walk no more after the Spirit, but fall back into perdition "as a dog returns to its own vomit again and the sow that was washed, to her wallowing in the mire", walking again according to the course of this world, yielding the members of their bodies to sin, if they fall away because they no longer want to retain knowledge of God, it is impossible for them to be renewed unto godly sorrow to repentance, seeing that they crucify afresh to themselves the Son of God, treading upon His blood. This is why the verse following is to be heeded with fear and trembling. “If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.”

‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭3:17‬ ‭KJV‬‬
