CLEAN UP YOUR ACT! https://youtu.be/M5GkTkIXufQ
2 Corinthians 7:1 "Therefore, my dear friends, since we have these promises, let us purify ourselves from everything that can defile either body or spirit, and strive to be completely holy, out of reverence for God."
THESE PROMISES: See 2 Corinthians 6:16-18, but in a nutshell - it is the promise that our body is the Temple of God, and the God is our Father, walking with us, and we are His children.
SINCE WE HAVE THESE PROMISES: Cause, premise, or basis, or reason for why we need to purify ourselves.
LET US PURIFY: This is OUR job. Considering the premise established in 2 Corinthians 6 is, our body is the Temple, it is also a stewardship duty. We must take this action. Opportunity is all around us, but many of us fail to take advantage of it. This is a cause and effect deal. God offers, and we must take.
LET US PURIFY OURSELVES FROM EVERYTHING THAT CAN DEFILE EITHER BODY OR SPIRIT:: First of all, our focus is ourselves. I cannot purify you; I can only purify ME. Also, this assumes that we are ALREADY defiled, or that the things that defile us are around us. No one cleans a clean space.
FROM EVERYTHING THAT CAN DEFILE EITHER BODY OR SPIRIT:: Pay attention, it says body and spirit, Cleaning the body only, is like cleaning the OUTSIDE of the cup and not paying attention to the inside of the filthy cup. No whitewashing here folks. The cleanup process is just as much an inside job.
FROM EVERYTHING THAT CAN DEFILE EITHER BODY OR SPIRIT:: You probably already know what these things are. Are you making poor food choices, sex choices, watching or hearing filth or fearful things that cause you anxiety or bad dreams?
