If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him, for God’s temple is sacred, and you are that temple (1 Corinthians 3:17).

Yep, that would be a warning, right there.

Don’t mess with God’s people.

Remember, this is in the context of “I follow Paul;” “I follow Apollos.”  We are being warned not to do anything that would fracture the body of believers.  Don’t worry, though: this warning only applies to people who actually have the power to create division in the body.

You know, like pastors

and teachers

and leaders of big ministries

and small-time-wanna-be devotional bloggers

and anyone who has contact with other believers.

Uh oh.

Happy Thursday, Beloved.

Tread carefully.
