Because our bodies belong to Christ, let us use them for His glory...
1. Use them morally

- God has everything you need to fulfill the desires you have
2. Use them charitably
- Jesus gave His life for your life so we should use our bodies for Him
Is your body used for God's glory?
Do you practice biblical morality?
Is your body used to serve others?
