Your Body

You are not to make gashes on your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves; I am the LORD.

I chose you before I formed you in the womb; I set you apart before you were born. I appointed you a prophet to the nations.

“The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light.

Don’t fear those who kill the body but are not able to kill the soul; rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

Don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own,

Instead, I discipline my body and bring it under strict control, so that after preaching to others, I myself will not be disqualified.

So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything for the glory of God.
