Honour Jesus Temple Guard your Body and Mind
What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
Guard your Body Born Again Christian by Honouring Jesus
One of the ways to keep yourself Holy and from submitting to temptation, (to prevent from dishonoring the temple of the Holy Spirit) is to remember you belong to Jesus, we need to learn to respect Jesus, Jesus lives in your body, you have Jesus authority over your fleshly desires-weaknesses, and your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. Jesus Holy Spirit brings unity with a born-again Christian’s spirit. So be nice to yourself, take care what comes out of your mouth, be careful what you see, be careful what you do and where you go. That includes your own mind not just your physical body. Do not allow the Devil deception, deceive you, or evil people abuse your mind and body in any way. You are powerful through Jesus’s name.
1 Corinthians 3:17 King James Version
17.) If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are ye.
1 Corinthians 6:19 Kings James Version
19.) What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
1 Corinthians 12:13 King James Version
13.) For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
Romans 8:10 King James Version
10.) And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
We are Created in the Image of God
Humans are not a God but are created like him. A born-again Christian is not a God either but are like Jesus. A born-again Christian is able to use the same authority over satan’s kingdom as Jesus does. If you understand that humans are created in the image of God, you know that humans have three parts of their own existence. The human body is the flesh, the invisible part where we have our feelings is the soul, which is in our own mind: our own intellect, our own will, and our own emotions. We also have a spirit. When a person becomes a born-again Christian their soul is saved, their own spirit rises from the spiritual death because of sin. Sin is known as death in the Bible. The human spirit becomes alive so Jesus can dwell there. God is a Spirit so born-again children must worship God in the Spirit and in truth. That is when the human saved soul, their whole being becomes the Holy Temple of God.
1 Corinthians 15:45 King James Version
45.) And so it is written, the first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
Genesis 1:27 King James Version
27.) So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
The Holy Spirit is Power
Jesus’ Holy Spirit interacts with a born-again spirit, and is the one who comforts his children, teaches his children many powerful-spiritual secrets. The Holy Spirit will help a born-again Christian not corrupt their future or comprise with sin. He can also help change addictions and the desires of the flesh to comit sin or stay in sin.
John 14:26 King James Version
26.) But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
Have you Deposited Unrighteousness or Righteousness into your Soul
Anything we do with our body after we become born-again gets deposited into our soul. If it is evil Jesus cannot come to interact with his children. It is essential for a saved person to ask Jesus to help him or her keep their mind and body holy. A Christian’s body must be Holy for Jesus to come to speak as a Father, Friend, or Savior. Child of God, repent of your weak desires of the flesh (bad habits), ask Jesus to forgive you, and help you not live your life in unrighteousness. Study his Word. Never forget to always keep and study Jesus’ Word that is in the Bible. Keep it in your mind and heart daily/throughout the day. Speak his Word into your life, live by them. This will help you learn about Jesus in every way and help you in your new path of life and in this world.
Jesus is a King
We must respect that Jesus is a King. He is higher than a real King on earth. We must honour him in his ways and thoughts which are different than our ways and thoughts. We must fear him with respect that he has all the power over any God that exist in all things that exist in this world.
Revelation 19:16 King James Version
16.) And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.

2.)That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
3.) For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:
4.) Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:
5.) Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.
6.)For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
