<strong>Foundations</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Faith</strong> <strong>–</strong> <strong>Chapter</strong> 1<br />
THE PURPOSE OF BUILDING<br />
The purpose <strong>of</strong> your spiritual "building" is to provide a habitation [a dwelling place] for<br />
God. His Spirit will dwell in you only when your life is built on the right foundation. Paul<br />
asked:<br />
Know ye not that ye are the temple <strong>of</strong> God, and that the Spirit <strong>of</strong> God dwelleth in<br />
you? (I Corinthians 3:16)<br />
Because <strong>of</strong> this you are cautioned to build your spiritual life properly:<br />
According to the grace <strong>of</strong> God which is given unto me, as a wise master builder, I<br />
have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take<br />
heed how he buildeth thereupon. For other foundation can no man lay than that is<br />
laid, which is Jesus Christ.<br />
(I Corinthians 3:10-11)<br />
