WHY IT IS SO IMPORTANT TO START OUT WITH A GODD FOUNDATION Making sure we have a good foundation in our Christian life will help us to be able to become more confident in building up our Christian life which is so important for us. 1 Corinthians 3:10-15 tell us why; Paul says;
10As a skilled and experienced builder, I used the gift that God gave me to lay the foundation for that building. However, someone else is building on it.
Each person must be careful how he builds on it.
11 After all, no one can lay any other foundation than the one that is already laid, and that foundation is Jesus Christ.
12 People may build on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw.
13 The day will make what each one does clearly visible because fire will reveal it. That fire will determine what kind of work each person has done.
14 If what a person has built survives, he will receive a reward.
15 If his work is burned up, he will suffer the loss. However, he will be saved, though it will be like going through a fire.

This is a difficult scripture when we think about that we as Christians will be judged because how fashion or build our lives in Christ. Paul goes on to say that: People should think of us as servants of Christ and managers who are entrusted with God's mysteries. Managers are required to be trustworthy. 1 Cor.4:1-2.

If you go back and look at 1 Cor. 3:16 you will see why it is so important, It is because we are temples, (inhabitations, churches) of the Holy Spirit.

You could say it is the church who gathers in buildings each week, and not just people going to a place called church.

So we want to honor the Holy Spirit in our lives by the way we conduct our lives.
Just like any guest who would come to your own home, we need to make Him welcome. We do this by co-operating with Him; it is He who works in you to help you do the Father’s will

In John 14:26 Jesus said, However, the helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything. He will remind you of everything that I have ever told you.

The Holy Spirit is working in our live to help us to become all God intended us to be. He is the master craftsman who is creating something wonderful out of our lives.
