If someone offered you a free trip to The Real Temple where God lives today, would you want to go?  How far would you be willing to go?  How much would you be willing to pay to see it?

The good news is that you can see it for free and you won’t have to go very far.  Just look in the mirror!  What??  Is this some kind of joke?  No, Paul himself was amazed that more people were unaware of The Treasure living within them.

Don’t you know that your body is a temple

that belongs to The Holy Spirit?

The Holy Spirit, Whom you received from God,

lives in you …

1 Corinthians 6:19

Satan knew and he hated The Temples.  Now that God had put Jesus in a human body, Jesus was like them.  His outside body was a covering for what was inside of Him.  Jesus’ body was an obstacle to satan’s getting to the center of Him, where God lived.  Satan had been studying the humans for some time.  He had to admit they were an amazing creation of God, but all in all, those outer bodies were pretty weak.  After all Jesus admitted that Himself.

… “The Spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

Matthew 26:41

The more satan studied Jesus, the more he was convinced he could take Him.  Break through that outer wall of the so called temple and he’d be in … and God would be out.  Oh the pure delight of the thought!  

But satan should have done a bit more reading of how God designed Temples.  How much do you know about The Temple He designed for you?
