sacred whore series: ICorinthian 6: 19-20

Angela Bassett dancing in the dark !!!!


WHY ARE WE HERE & WHO ARE WE?


1Cor 6:19-20 tells us, "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? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's." But how much of this verse focuses believers on the outer man, the flesh upon bone? Don’t believe it? It is in the pudding, the proof.

Thinking of the thousands of sermons heard, books composed, and passed off as a reflection of the true God’s word, and the number of admonishments critical of people’s appearances, tattoos, clothes, color, hair, words, drug usage, etc. Based on harshness, and judgement ICorinthian 6: 19-20 has created an unhealthy myopic focus on the outer man, the flesh over bones. That being said how can a regular person not acquainted with impeccability, or the workings of a priest-craft adjust, and move themselves out of the paradigm of appearances into the spiritual work of unlearning? – Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories


American contradiction

“Take time to think, it's the source of power. Take time to read, it's the foundation of wisdom. Take time to be quiet, it's the moment to seek God. Take time to be aware, it's the opportunity to help others. Take time to love, it's God's greatest commandment. Take time to laugh, it's good for the soul. Take time to dream, it's what the future is made of. Take time to pray, it's the greatest power on earth.” - Dr-Marcia Brevard Wynn
