The body is our realm of personal evaluation. The body is the place of proper worship (Rom. 12:1), the Temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Cor. 6:19-20), and thus is to be disciplined (1 Cor. 9:27). The inner spiritual life is not to be played off against the outer, physical life (Matt. 6:22, 1 Cor. 6:12-20, 2 Cor 4:7,10). The goal is not liberation of a "divine" soul from the body but the placing of the body in service for God (2 Cor. 5:10).
