For ye are bought with a price; therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
I Corinthians 6:20
Physical Fitness
Both bodies and souls are important. We know that God created humans with these two interconnected parts, and that health (or even sickness) of one can influence the health (or sickness) of the other. Particularly in American culture, there is no shortage of diet fads. Many of these emphasize nutrition whereas others have more to do with exercise style or routines. There is no doubt that it is good to do physical exercise because God cares about the body. God even speaks of it many times in Scripture. In I Corinthians 6:19 He refers to our bodies as "the temple of the Holy Spirit" as a reminder that we are to bring Him glory through our bodies. And in I Timothy 4:7 He brings us a balanced view regarding our health by reminding us while exercise is important, so is training our bodies for godliness.
