1st Corinthians 3:16, and What it means to all People!!

 

1st Corinthians 3:16, and What it means to all People!!  By Anthony Joseph Hopkins July 20, 2021



       1st Corinthians 3:16 says Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?  I really believe it that our bodies are the temple of the God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you.  This is the reason why I stopped drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana.  I have been clean and sober for 31 years now.  I am so happy that my temple is clean.

Next, my temple is holy and sacred.  I understand that God has saved me from myself.  The Lord has literally cleaned me up.  I know that I belong to God.  I want to say that there was a period of time when I did not care about myself.  I am a follower of Jesus Christ.  I recall a period of time when I used to drink and smoke for 18 years.  I know that I went through a period of time when I was a follower rather than a leader.  The reason why I am writing this essay is because my body belongs to Jesus Christ. 



       Further, I want to say that I do not engage in reckless behavior anymore.  I do not look at pornography anymore.  I choose to obey God, and watch Him work.  God loves all of us.  How do you respond to God?  The answer is obedience.  If I love God, I am going to become obedient.  What drives us to God is need.  I want to inform all of you that our bodies belong to God.  The Spirit of God dwells inside of us.  The Spirit of God helps me in my time of need. 

Moreover, I want the Lord to speak inside of my heart.  Ask the Lord to forgive you of your sins.  The temple itself is not a metaphor.  This is a specific thing that we possess inside of our bodies.  This means that God wants us to do the right things.  Do you know that one of my friends told me in my face that I should not write about God!!  I want to inform all of you that God is faithful to me.  God’s temple is holy and sacred because we are supposed to share His word with everyone.  I am happy that God is reminding me of His faithfulness. 

 

 

 

Finally, I want to inform all of you that I am going to continue to pray without ceasing.  I am going to continue to read the Bible, so that I can communicate with God on a daily basis.  My temple has been through a whole lot of stress for the past few years.  My temple is nice, kind, fantastic, and excellent.  My temple is sharing God’s message with everyone.  My temple always listens to church sermons.

 In order for God to be faithful, God states that His truth endures forever.  I love the Lord because he loved me when I was inside of my mother’s womb.  God’s nature cannot change.  God cannot change.  My temple is pure.  My temple is gracious.  Whatever the case is, we make our needs to God.  Do you know that we are supposed to do God’s Will?  He answers prayers.  God is unchangeable.  God is the Lord and Master in my life.

What is Forgiveness Part #2

  What is Forgiveness Part 2 By Anthony Joseph Hopkins May 8, 2021           Forgiveness Part #2 is simply about asking a very important question.   How many times shall I forgive my brother?   The answer is 70*7 = 490 times.   I will admit that I have to work on this issue myself.   This is simply because people has been cussing me out as of late.   I know that I have to forgive each person 490 times.     This is the truth.   I know that it is very hard for me to forgive each person 490 times.   I know that each person must forgive me a total of 490 times.   I have had one of my AA Sponsee cuss me out to my face.   I did not say or do anything to him personally. I have learned to become humble as of late.   I have more respect for other people’s feelings.   I am a sinner that needs grace and mercy. Next, I want to say that I have put up with a lot of crazy stuff f...

Yesterday's Courtroom Verdict

My Personal Viewpoints Regarding the Courtroom Verdict!   Good Day Everyone!!  How are all of you doing today?  Fine, I hope.  I want to inform all of you that I am in complete shock regarding yesterday’s Court Verdict.  There are times when a person has to weigh their options and decisions.  I know that if I were the Former President, I would have plead guilty to a lesser charge.   Even though the evidence was too strong on him, however, he has a right to appeal the sentenced.  I want to inform all of you that everyone has a right to a total of 6 appeals throughout the process.  Frankly, a person cannot get away from God.    I know that God is watching all of us.  God only want His Children to listen and obey Him.  Proverbs 15:3 says: The eyes of the Lord are in every place, keeping watch on the evil and the good.    According to Isaiah 59:2 specifically states that our sins have separated us from God.  The...
