For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit which is God’s.” 1 Corinthinians 6-19-20. A man in court confessed to stealing chickens, lying, drinking, cutting others with a razor, gamb ling, and even murder. 'But, he said, “I thank God I never one time lost my religion.” Does this sound familiar to you ? Can you go all week lying, cheating, and liv ing to suit yourself, and then dress up your life on Sunday so that you feel that you have never lost your religion? Some time ago I stood watching some w* . .kers tearing down a building, a jang of men was bu sily swinging a large beam so that every time it struck, great portions of the wall would fall. The foremen was asked, “Are these men skilled in what they are doing?” The foremen laughed and answered, “No sir!” “I can take common laborers and in just two days completely destroy what it took two years to build.” The words of that foremen have rung in my ears for many years now. I cannot stand and watch new construction without thinking of what he said. This leads me to the understanding then of this passage of scripture. Many a life, many a home, many a business, many a church, that required years to build, has been completely destroyed by just one evil act. These two verses remind us that God dwells in our bodies. We are not our own for he has paid the price for the right to dwell there, and we are then made aware of the fact that our lives are not our own to do as we please. God gave you life. Christ redeem ed it for you. You are only the housekeeper of it, and the house keeper will be held responsible for its condition when the Lord of the house returns. Are you listening ? 1418 Main Street Phone 276-1422 Ernest Wicker Dies In Wreck Ernest Eddie Wicker, 51, oi Route one, Pomaria, died, appar ently instantly, last Tuesday night when his automobile struck a bridge on Highway 176 near Po maria.
