Save Your Whole Body

Is your body completely saved from the danger of the fire of hell? How to tell if the members of your body were altogether saved? See what the bible said about the members of the body:

Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. (Mat 5:27-29)

And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. (Mat 5:30)

This is a very serious teaching of Jesus not on the unsaved but more so on the saved persons. Just only one small member of the body causes to sin will put the whole body along with the whole being in the danger of the fire of hell. No wonder, many who prophesied, cast out devil and do many wonderful works in the name of Jesus will not enter heaven (Mat 7:21-23). Why? It because of the iniquities they did, such as the wickedness done by their hand and eyes, which is the lust of the flesh and lust of the eyes.

And much iniquity why many will not enter heaven is because of the tongue. James said that the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity an unruly evil, full of deadly poison and no one can tame: that it defiles the whole body and it is set on fire of hell. (Jas Chap. 3)

Therefore, a saved person must always be on the watch to the members of his body which is the hand, eye and particularly the tongue. Lying and boasting (exaggeration) must be put away from the tongue- a very dangerous member of the body. Look at what happen to Ananias and Sapphira (Acts 5:1-10)

The Paradox of the Biblical Salvation is all about the continuous saving of oneself (by surpassing the law which is the Ten Commandments) to save the members of the body (hand, eyes, tongue) completely from the danger of the fire of hell.
