STEWARDS OF OUR
BODIES (II)
Main Text: 1 Cor 6:19-20
Memory Verse: “Do not offer the parts of your body
to sin, as instruments of wickedness, but rather offer them to God” Romans 6:13
Introduction
A steward has been described as an official who controls
the affairs of a household-supervising and directing the staff, and regulating
the expenditure of the household. However, the Bible indicates that, we as Christians
have been made stewards of much more than just households. God has made us
stewards and caretakers of our bodies. Today’s text teaches that our physical
bodies belong to God, and He expects us to take good care of them.
Discussion Questions
1. According to the text, what is the purpose of
the body? 1 Cor 6:20
2. Who do our bodies belong to? 1 Cor 6:19
3. Why should we honour God with our bodies? 1
Cor 6:20
4. In what ways can you take care of your body?
5. “Do not offer your bodies as instruments of wickedness”
Rom 6:13. Explain
Conclusion
Our physical bodies are God’s gift to us to be
the dwelling place of His Spirit. Our responsibility is to take good care of
the body through exercise, good eating habits and clean sexual behaviour. Any
activity that leaves our bodies less physically fit, less mentally alert and less
morally sensitive cannot be good for us.
