Know ye not
that ye are the temple of God,
and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
If any man
defile the temple of God,
him shall God destroy;
for the temple of God is holy,
which temple are ye.
1Corinthians 3:16-17

Forgive me for taking these verses lightly.

For thou hast possessed my reins;
thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.
I will praise thee;
for I am fearfully and wonderfully made:
marvellous are thy works;
and that my soul knoweth right well.
My substance was not hid from thee,
when I was made in secret,
and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
Thine eyes did see my substance,
yet being unperfect;
and in thy book all my members were written,
which in continuance were fashioned,
when as yet there was none of them.
Psalm 139:13-16

Praise God the creator of life: Jewish life, Gentile life, believing life, unbelieving life.

And it shall come to pass,
if they will diligently learn the ways of my people,
to swear by my name,
The Lord liveth;
as they taught my people to swear by Baal;
then shall they be built in the mist of my people.
Jeremiah 12:16

See previous verses and following verses for context.

Here is an amazing promise that God offers the enemies of Israel.
Praise to God that He cares for Israel's enemies and offered blessings.

"The General Secretary of the United Nations has agreed to work with the Palestinian Authority, now that the Trump Administration is gone, to bring together the "Quartet" to attempt to bully Israel into Palestinian favorable compromises."

The "Quartet" are the human entities known as: the United Nations, the United States, the European Union, and Russia.

At the same time, the human entity known as the ICC (International Criminal Court), has announced that it is going to proceed with investigating Palestinian allegations of war crimes against Israel.

Only in a vain world, which neither acknowledges nor fears God, could these things be. It is sad the depths of depravity that this present world has descended into.

The powers that be in this world have utterly disregarded the Holy Scriptures. Had they known the scriptures, they would have known the folly of what they are going to attempt to do.

Personally, I'm ready to see the Lord put this vain world in it's place, as the scriptures affirm that the Lord will do.

Even so come Lord Jesus!

And the father of circumcision
to them who are not of the circumcision

but who also walk in the steps of that faith
of our father Abraham,
which he had yet being uncircumcised.

Praise to God: Jewish or Gentile faith in Him is what counts.

And he shall send
Jesus Christ,
which was preached unto you:
Whom the heaven must receive
until the time of restitution of all things...

We shall not all sleep,
but we shall all be changed,
In a moment,
in the twinkling of an eye,
at the last trump:

Praise God we will learn to rely on Him only
for He will come at the restitution of all things.

He also exalteth the horn of his people,

even of the children of Israel,
a people near unto him.
Praise ye the Lord.

But now we are delivered from the law,
that being dead wherein we were held;
that we should serve in the newness of spirit,
and not in the oldness of the letter.
Romans 7:6

Praise God for the newness He gives but it is sure difficult at times when dragging around a dead man.
