The born again believer is the ark of God or the dwelling place of His presence and the place God meets man in his spirit.If one is not born again then this would not of course apply.
To bear a the body of Jesus was indeed an honor but to have the very God of heaven living in your spirit is the highest honor . As God Himself told Abraham on fine day:
Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.
To be the very place God meets man, to be the very place that mercy triumphs over justice, to be the very vessels h who carry the Living God- that is the call and function of every true believer. Hallelujah!
