The Apostle Paul delighted in preaching the Gospel. He likened the Gospel to a TREASURE, no doubt because it greatly enriched the lives of those who believed it. How strange then that God in His wisdom should place this treasure into the responsibility of ‘earthen vessels’: that is, the human body so frail, fragile, and so easily reduced again to dust. The wonderful thing is, these same ‘earthen vessels’ have become (for the believer), A TEMPLE for the Holy Spirit to indwell: a divine Person residing inside the body of every believer!! Paul argues that a realization of this amazing fact should cause the believer to adjust his/her behaviour to be in keeping with high honour bestowed. Scandalous and shameful conduct would grieve the Holy Spirit.


“Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you”
1 Corinthians 6:19
