Outside The Camp!


‘Outside The Camp.’
Hebrews 13:11-13.
a)       Hebrews 13:11; Exodus 29:14. The bodies of the animals that are brought into the Holy Place by the High Priest as a Sacrifice for sin are burned outside the camp.
b)       Hebrews 13:12. So Jesus also suffered outside the gate in order to Sanctify the people through His Own blood.
c)       Hebrews 13:13. Let us go to Jesus outside the camp and bear the reproach that endured.

‘Our Personal Purity.’
1 Corinthians 6:15-20.
a)       1 Corinthians 6:15. Our bodies are members of Christ and we should not give them to immoral people.

c)       1 Corinthians 6:17. If we are joined to the Lord, we become one spirit with Him.
d)       1 Corinthians 6:18. We are to flee from the sexually immoral person because if we get involved with them we sin against our own body.
e)       1 Corinthians 6:19. We are not our own. Our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit Whom we have from God.
f)         1 Corinthians 6:20. We should Glorify God in our bodies because they have been bought at a price. We are not our own any more. (The price paid for us is the Blood of Jesus Christ)
