A pastor argues that treating your body as the Holy Spirit's temple makes sin feel personal. If the Holy Spirit sees what you see and speaks through your mouth, you'll feel responsible to act differently.
You know, the scripture says that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. So I ask you, what are you doing with the Holy Spirit's hands? What are you looking at with the Holy Spirit's eyes? What are you listening to with the Holy Spirit's ears? What are you speaking with the Holy Spirit's mouth? Where are you going with the Holy Spirit's feet? What are you doing with the Holy Spirit's temple? And when you become aware, of how your disobedience affects not just this idea or this abstract individual somewhere off in the distance in the sky, but when you become aware of how it affects your precious friend, the Holy Spirit who abides with you, that is going to give you the motivation, and that is going to change something in your nature that will cause you to resist sin,
