1 Corinthians6:17
17 But he that is joyned unto the Lord, is one spirit .
This phrase joyned to the Lord, is thought to be taken out of Deut. 10.20. To him thou shalt cleave. He that hath attained to that mystical Union which is betwixt Christ and every one that is a true Believer, is not essentially, but spiritually and mystically one Spirit with Christ, his spirit is united to the Spirit of Christ, and he is one by him in Faith and love, and by obedience, Christ and he have one will, and he is ruled and governed by Christ: therefore you must take heed what you do in making your bodies the members of Harlots, which they cannot be, and the Members of Christ also.
