For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
Note 17 at 1 Cor. 6:20: One of the most damaging attitudes of our time is the exaltation of self over others. Personal rights have been promoted at the expense of others. That is not good for society and it is certainly not the way God expects His body to operate.
As Christians we need to develop a continual awareness that our lives are not our own. We do not have the liberty to do as we please. We should present our bodies as a living sacrifice unto God, recognizing that this is just our reasonable duty to the one who gave His life for us (Rom. 12:1).
