Why Was I Created?

Don't you yourselves know that you are God's sanctuary and that the Spirit of God lives in you? If anyone destroys God's sanctuary, God will destroy him; for God's sanctuary is holy, and that is what you are. 1 Cor: 3:16,17

In the media only this week is another centre of child abuse, a religion secreted away in the bush. Children were being raised to be used sexually and as slaves. Tonight on the news I saw how a young girl was on a plane to the Middle East. There were concerns that she was a child bride and now in Australia this is being dealt with by authorities. Child brides exist in Middle Eastern cultures that choose to make Australia home, however here this practice is against the law and now is being clamped down upon.

God is our creator, we were made to have Him abide inside our spirits. We were not created to be used by others for their own pleasure, we were made for God's pleasure and that definitely does not include abuse but rather freedom.

This scripture is telling us that God will deal with the abusers. Deceptive and corrupt teaching is a form of abuse as the teacher has reformed the scripture to suit his own purposes and justify his sin. Bad move!
