Hebrews 9:6-10 “Now when these things had been thus prepared, the priests always went into the first part of the tabernacle, performing the services. (7) But into the second part the high priest went alone once a year, not without blood, which he offered for himself and for the people's sins committed in ignorance; (8) the Holy Spirit indicating this, that the way into the Holiest of All was not yet made manifest while the first tabernacle was still standing. (9) It was

The first tabernacle 1 Corinthians 6:19 “Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?” God views our bodies in a light that is completely different to the way natural man sees it, for in the above quoted passage of scripture the apostle Paul teaches us that our bodies are in fact God’s temple. The Lord Jesus was the first one to introduce us to this concept when He referred to His o

Psalms 91:16 “With long life I will satisfy him, and show him My salvation.” The fourth and final blessing that we want to discuss in this section is the fact that God has committed to satisfying His saints with long life. And so although, as we have already seen, our outward man is perishing, it is nevertheless God’s perfect will for His children that our bodies should not perish before their time. Under the present dispensation God has committed to giving the saints seven

Psalms 91:9-12 “Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge, Even the Most High, your dwelling place, (10) No evil shall befall you, Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling; (11) For He shall give His angels charge over you, To keep you in all your ways. (12) In their hands they shall bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone.” The third blessing that we want to discuss in this section is the fact that God has committed to keeping His saints from

Matthew 6:31-33 “Therefore do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' (32) For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. (33) But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” The second blessing that we want to discuss in this section is the fact that God has committed to supplying all our physical needs i

Galatians 3:5 “Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?” Before we discuss God’s responsibilities in this section there is a fundamental truth that we need to reinforce, which is that the just shall live by faith (Romans 1:17). As we will see in this section there are numerous blessings that God has made available to His saints, but they can only be accessed when the saint e

Mark 2:20 “But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast in those days.” This section also falls under the heading of that which God counsels us, because it is not considered sinful to the saint that chooses not to follow God’s counsel in this area. One aspect of presenting our bodies to the Lord is in the area of fasting. We all know that our Lord Jesus fasted for forty days prior to the launch of His earthly ministry (Mat

Psalms 127:2 “It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows; for so He gives His beloved sleep.” This section also falls under the heading of that which God counsels us, because it is not considered sinful to the saint that chooses not to follow God’s counsel in this area. So what about physical rest? Rest is a vital part of how we look after our physical bodies, for God designed our bodies to need sleep and to also rest from wor

1 Timothy 4:8 “For bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come.” This section also falls under the heading of that which God counsels us, because it is not considered sinful to the saint that chooses not to follow God’s counsel in this area. Not all would agree with the concept that bodily exercise is necessary. However, if we look at the above quoted passage of scripture

Ephesians 5:29 “For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church.” This section falls under the heading of that which God counsels us, because it is not considered sinful to the saint that chooses not to follow God’s counsel in this area. As God’s tenants He expects us to be good stewards of our earthly bodies, and we do that by eating correctly, doing the right amount of exercise and giving our body’s sufficient rest. N

Leviticus 19:28 “You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor tattoo any marks on you: I am the Lord.” This section on tattoos also falls under the heading of that which God requires of us, because it deals with sin in the body. Obviously this is another area in which the world rebels completely against God’s commandment, and for which they will incur their just punishment on their day of judgement. Unlike sexual perversion however the world does not yet

1 Corinthians 6:12-13 “All things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any. (13) Foods for the stomach and the stomach for foods, but God will destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for sexual immorality but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.” This section on addictions also falls under the heading of that which God requires of us, because it deals with sin in the body.
