July 15


“In whom ye also are builded together for a habitation of God in the Spirit.” Ephesians 2:22

I was once told of a sister in Christ who was so quiet and gentle that she was “highly spiritual.” “Who is she spiritual with?” I asked my informant. The revealing reply was, “Well, singers who can sing such high notes as she can, find few who can sing with them.”

Alas, she was so spiritual that no one could be her spiritual companion! Such a sister is alright for display purposes, but she is no use for church building. The kind of Christian needed in the Church of God is one who can have another placed behind her and another in front, another over her and yet another under her, and still be spiritual. God did not just plan for a display of precious stones; he wanted a house.
