God's Temple
Published 2 years, 4 months ago
Description
The month of May reminds me of confirmation: that special rite in which one publicly confesses the faith into which many of us were baptized as infants. My confirmation verse from 1 Corinthians reminds me that God’s temple is not a building, but his people.
The Old Testament rules about sacrifices and priestly intervention within the temple building no longer apply. Christ died for the ungodly: me and you. He is our priest and frees us to be his New Testament temple, the body of believers, with his Spirit present to guide and sustain us.
