Bodily Abuse
Defilement of The Temple

Bodily abuse is a small matter with large consequences, consequences that is causing death all over the world both naturally and spiritually. It has caused God to mistrust man and man has to do some fasting, sound sacrifices to gain God’s trust in him again. It’s also a sin to the flesh that brings about consequential death to the one that abuse their temple with ungodly idols. Rather mankind realize it or not, when they abuse their temple with ungodly acts, they are cursing God to his face because he has already warned man and told them no to what they are doing, do not do it, from the youngest to the oldest. Within man’s body lies the Spirit of God, the Holy Arc.

I Corinthians 6:19-20, what know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God and ye are not your own. For ye are brought with a price, therefore, glorify God in your body and in your Spirit; which is God’s.

1. Eating Habits, feeding more to the flesh that the Spirit, Glutton
2. Sexual Abuse, premarital sex, fornication, and adultery
3. Marred Bodies, markings, tattoos
4. The Abusive Tongue, the pink tornado

Because mankind is inconsistent in their walk with God, in today, out tomorrow, up and over in it one minute and I think I am the next, I want to do right, but I can repent, they are not composed and will not adhere to what is proper. The Holy Ghost will not dwell in an unclean temple. The Holy Ghost was there in the beginning with God cooperating fully in bringing order to the chaos, guided the Prophets in making known the will of God, he was the one that speaks through man when they give up control to God and it is the Holy Spirit that dwells in you that executes the will of the father by relating to you what the will of God is. The Holy Ghost or Spirit in you gives you qualities of mind and body that will work for you if you allow him to.

Because mankind will not adhere or give ear to what the Spirit has to say to them, they smother out the Spirit out of them. Jesus’ entire ministry was under the direction of the Holy Spirit according to Mathew 12:18, so are you greater than Jesus that you do not need the Holy Spirit alive and working in your temple? He too also came down from Heaven and man is living to go back to Heaven.

The Holy Spirit is regarded definitely as a personality not only by Jesus and but his disciples also. He hears from the Father and speaks to men today, he wills and he has knowledge, he teaches, makes intercession for mankind, and many other divine attributes.
The work of the Holy Spirit caused the conception of Jesus, descended upon Jesus as a dove after his baptism, directed Jesus in the wilderness where he would be tempted, and after Jesus was departed he left the Holy Spirit to be the comforter to men and women that they should be baptized in the Spirit and receive power to live outside of sin. The Holy Ghost is the keeper of the temple of man today, but man is not willingly allowing the Holy Spirit entrance or the right to have free course to operate in their lives.
The Spirit can be operating in man and the flesh will present itself like never before and it presents itself just the way man likes it. I t is whatever it may be that comes to distract the train of thought that the Spirit has. Finally the Spirit causes one to rest in the Lord. It brings with it love, peace, and righteousness. It helps you to control your appetite for the things in the world that causes one to abuse their bodies by defiling their temple.

Eating habits according to Philippians 3:19 whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things. Most Americans eat the wrong things it’s a fast food world. Every thing is fast. Well guess what it also leads to a fast natural death, as with the spiritually abused body. Remember abuse is the misuse of anything by improper use. Eating is the absorption, the incorporation as a part of the body food that is suppose to supply the nutrients that the body need for survival. But out of habit, the settled or regular tendency or practice, mankind has developed the attitude that they can just eat at every inclination, out of custom or tradition, routine mannerism. When they want to, how they want to and hat they want to. Even in some case knowing that what they are eating is detrimental to their physical health. Well likewise spiritually. Eating habits cause people to become obsessed, dependent, compulsive about foods and they get bent out of shape if they cannot have it, because the practice has been abused, it is hard to give it up, and addiction has set in. Just as in the natural this works as detriment to the body, the effects will be adverse in the spiritual. This kind of habit forming addiction would in s sense be good to the spirit man, but that also in the case of too much could cause one to lose their mind. Because man is human flesh there must be a balance. If a person only read their Bible, twenty-four hours a day, fast and pray seven days a week, this is not a proper diet. The body need food and water, the body cannot sustain itself without a proper diet so one must eat at some point. Bad eating habits in the spiritual would be that once a week Sunday Service without ever reaching the sustaining Word to nourish the spirit man. The Word of God to man is just like food is to the body. It is a must for spiritual growth. Elijah, know to man as the greatest prophet in the Bible, did a unique work for the Lord. After all of the wonderful works was done, he was instructed to go sit down and rest and get something to eat. The Spirit indeed is willing but the flesh is weak. The spirit man never tires, never sleep and is always making intercession for man, so man have need of rest in the physical body. The body also needs food to sustain its growth and continued function. Satan himself never takes on a strong body. He takes on the weakest flesh, as with Adam and Eve, Eve was the weaker vessel that Satan used to perpetuate his plan against man. Eating the improper things cause the eyes to come open to disease and discomfort, sickness and other illnesses that the body could have done without. Eating habits also cause separation of best friend because it causes division of what is acceptable and what is not. Man should be vexed or agitated about the consequences of over eating that overwhelms them, not only do they destroy the insides of the body but the outward, the external the exterior of their bodies is abused in the physical. Obesity is obedience to the flesh and what the flesh wants. The flesh desires things that have no relevance to the care of the body like wise the spiritual. It causes hunger for the wrong things, only satisfying wants rather than need, obesity causes pain, discomfort and exhaustion because of the strong desire it has for the wrong foods. Whatever you desire more than God is an idol. God and food is something that when it is misused or abused will cause over weight in one area or another because mankind carries out that command to eat. The Bible in Deuteronomy 21:23 glutton, and they shall say unto the Elders of his city, this; our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice, he is a glutton and a drunkard. In that time they were stoned, put to death so the evil was taken from among the people and they did not be defiled. Today the eating habits of people are sinful in every way. They willfully destroy the body, the temple that God has entrusted to their care with strict stewardship.

Sexual Abuse, committed by self-seekers in denial of discipline is related to relations between the sexes. The natural way is between a man and woman. This is the only interaction endorsed by God; he created sex between the two for reproductive copulation between a husband and wife, to bring forth more fruit in the earth. So any thing other than that is the abuse of sex. They do not seek the Lord in his strength; seek his face continually, nor do they set their heart and soul to do so, will not keep the testimony of God out of a pure heart, and he cannot be found in them because there is a misunderstanding of who God is and why he is. They have denied his very existence as their creator. They do not hold him good, but evil, but they do seek his mercy that he will abundantly pardon them in the end of their lives. Because of the abuse of sex, over indulging in wrong relationship, sex has been misplaced in the earth and taken as something dirty in the minds of men and women today. It is all right to be sexy and naked that the opposite sex is sexually attracted or stimulated to a body. It does not matter that that body do not have a mind. But that spirit is destructive and has destroyed the very essence of God’s purpose for man in the earth. Because sex is propagated on television, billboards, radio and other places, the arousal in men causes them without a godly conscience to react unnaturally. There is even the sexagenarian, a person from 60 to 69 years old that has lost all perspective in this time.

They are sexual abusers more often than any other age group with a high urge for sex. Their sexual instincts, desires, and appetites that are heighten to an uncharacteristic high. Adultery, the unfaithfulness of a person to their marriage vows, all sexual impurity in thought, word or deed as implied in the seventh commandment. I Corinthians 6:15, know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? Shall ye then take the members of Christ and make them the members of a harlot? God forbid. Now there are more women committing adultery than men. Fornication is unlawful sexual intercourse on the part of an unmarried person; figuratively, idolatry, a forsaking of the true God and worshipping of idols. Fornication is forbidden and the young and old have been warned against it that they should abstain from it. They should abstain, stay away from it, talk of it or even participate in doing it. There are consequences associated with sexual sin and over indulgence says that what you want is more to you that God is. Many people make idols a representation or symbol of their love objects or sexual organs by using them in the spirit of worship, a false God.

Man born of a woman has given worship to sex for many years. They worship the very thing that God has placed within then for replenishing the earth. They gladly have obeyed in that area but they are ignorant to the knowledge that they must first take a wife and be able to provide the necessities of life for a family. Today the abuse of sex is the lack of recognizing God’s divine will for life, not having their imaginations wicked and their hearts evil. I Chronicles 28:9, Solomon my son, know thou the God of thy father and serve him with a willing mind; for the Lord searches all hearts; and understands all the imaginations of the thoughts if thou seek him, he will be found of thee, but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off forever. Immortality; deathlessness, imperishableness is rampant. No one wants to conform to acceptable behavior as ordained by God. If it is unacceptable, unethical, unprincipled, disgraceful, corrupt, bad, wicked, evil, iniquitous, or indecent it is acceptable to this human races body, even a dog will not let but one male dog touch her to bring forth puppies. Mankind does not really care that they are not immune to the deadly, immoral infections and diseases that have free course in the earth because of rampant sin.

Sexual Abuse not only affects the living but even the unborn children. Children are come into the world cursed with the sins of the parents. If a man die shall he live again? A man live again in the seeds he produces. Just as God lives in a man and through him reproduces himself. God lives again and again and when one will not follow his path, they recreate another Devil in the world. If Christ is not reproduced, what other spirit is there? Either they will learn the ways of God or Satan. We are not inventors of nothing new. Sexual abuse was from the beginning, disobedience to God birth it forth. Man will have to make restitution for deeds done in the body whether they do it intentional or by accident. To rid one of sexual abuse, those ungodly appetites, man must take a wife of his choosing ordained of God and cover her, love her, and teach her how to please him. Like wise women should desire a husband, wait to be chosen and learn how to be a wife, learn how to be in obedience to her won husband, seek ways to please him and expect to be the mother of his children. Men and women need to seek God continuously for help to stay the course, take what they have been blessed with and use that. Keep all others out of the equation of their lives.

Another aspect of bodily abuse is how man mar, spoil or disfigure their bodies. They damage, wreck, ruin, impair, deform, blight or blot their bodies with things that were not there when they were born. They mark up their bodies with tattoos that in most cases ungodly and it says that something or somebody else is their God. They injure, wreck, and lessen the effect of the body, damage and deface it with marks as a sign, impression or target. Leviticus 19:27-31 says ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shall thou mar the corners of thy beard, ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you; I am the Lord. Do not prostitute thy daughters to cause her to be a whore; lest the land fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness. Ye shall keep my Sabbaths and reverence my sanctuary; I am the lord, regard not them that have familiar spirits neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the Lord your God. God is warning his people everyday by the elements of the earth. Pay attention God is crying our America, I am the Lord your God. God specifically said that man should not cut himself or make baldness between your eyes.
