Our souls and bodies are not ours because they belong to God (Genesis 1:1-31, KJV). “Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves” (Psalm 100:3).
“[THE WAY OF LIFE IS ABOVE TO THE WISE], that he may depart from hell beneath” (Proverbs 15:24).
Therefore, we must BE WISE to do our best in our lifetime to do
what is good in our bodies. We MUST PRESERVE our whole BODIES AND SOULS unto
the COMING of our Lord JESUS CHRIST to inherit ETERNAL LIFE IN HEAVEN (1
Thessalonians 4:16-17, 5:23, KJV)!
“[FOR WE MUST ALL APPEAR] before the judgment seat of Christ;
that [EVERY ONE MAY RECEIVE THE THINGS DONE IN HIS BODY], according to that he
hath done, whether it be good or bad” (2 Corinthians 5:10).
“And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but [AFTER THIS
THE JUDGMENT]” (Hebrews 9:27).
“Who will render to [EVERY MAN ACCORDING TO HIS DEEDS]:
To them who by patient continuance in [WELL DOING] seek for
glory and honour and immortality, [ETERNAL LIFE]:
But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the
truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, Tribulation and
anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of
the Gentile;
But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that [WORKETH GOOD],
to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:
[FOR THERE IS NO RESPECT OF PERSONS WITH GOD]” (Romans
2:6-11).
“Thus saith the LORD the [MAKER] thereof, the LORD that
formed it, to establish it; the LORD is his name” (Jeremiah 33:2).
“[WOE UNTO HIM THAT STRIVETH WITH HIS MAKER]” (Isaiah 45:9).
“[BEHOLD, ALL SOULS ARE MINE]; as the soul of the father, so
also the soul of the son is mine: [THE SOUL THAT SINNETH, IT SHALL DIE]”
(Ezekiel 18:4).
“Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith
the Lord GOD: and not that he should return from his ways, and live? For I have
no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: [WHEREFORE TURN
YOURSELVES, AND LIVE YE]” (Ezekiel 18:23, 32).
“[KNOW YE NOT THAT YE ARE THE TEMPLE OF GOD], and that the
Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall
God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are” (1 Corinthians
3:16–17).
“[NOW THE BODY IS NOT FOR FORNICATION], but for the Lord; and
the Lord for the body. Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without
the body; but [HE THAT COMMITTETH FORNICATION SINNETH AGAINST HIS OWN BODY]” (1
Corinthians 6:13).
“[NEVERTHELESS, TO AVOID FORNICATION, LET EVERY MAN HAVE HIS
OWN WIFE, AND LET EVERY WOMAN HAVE HER OWN HUSBAND]” (1 Corinthians 7:2).
The Apostle Paul also wrote about the unmarried and widows, said:
“If they cannot contain, let them marry: for [IT IS BETTER TO MARRY THAN TO
BURN]” (1 Corinthians 7:9).
“[FOR, BEHOLD, THE DAY COMETH THAT SHALL BURN AS AN OVEN; AND
ALL THE PROUD, YEA, AND ALL THAT DO WICKEDLY, SHALL BE STUBBLE]: and the day
that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave
them neither root nor branch” (Malachi 4:1).
“Work out your own [SALVATION] with fear and trembling that
ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without
offence till the [DAY OF CHRIST]” (Philippians 2:12, 1:10).
“For ye are all the children of God
by [FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS]” (Galatians 3:24).
“[FOR GOD HATH NOT APPOINTED US TO
WRATH], but to [OBTAIN SALVATION BY OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST]” (1 Thessalonians
5:6-9).
“[KEEP YOURSELVES IN THE LOVE OF
GOD], looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto [ETERNAL LIFE]” (Jude
1:21).
“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ,
and the [LOVE OF GOD], and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all.
Amen” (2 Corinthians 13:14).
