Relationship

 

1 Thessalonians 5:23 

 23 Now may the God of peace Himself make you completely holy and may your spirit and soul and body be kept entirely blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

 

Relationship

 

Our body is related ... to our conscience and soul.

Primarily our relationship with Christ is in the spirit.

We can’t leave the others out ... as we live for Jesus

Although we’re strangely ... divided in this marriage.

 

If the body is dead in sin ... that does not mean it is buried.

If my soul is wayward ... does not mean it is gone.

If my spirit is alive ... it will just show the difference

For it takes all three you know ... for the job to get done.

 

Never forget my friend ... our fleshy frame so-called

An earthen vessel of clay...  still contains God’s presence.

Submissive to His being there ... will help to tame the tongue

And keeps us from falling more as He forms us into Christ’s essence.
