Tertullian, on 1Cor 6:20

Tertullian · c. A.D. 150–220
1Cor 6:20 · Douay-Rheims
“For you are bought with a great price. Glorify and bear God in your body.”
On this verse:
“So, again, when he is ascribing certain praiseworthy actions to the flesh, he says, "Therefore glorify and exalt God in your body," -being certain that such efforts are actuated by the soul; but still he ascribes them to the flesh, because it is to it that he also promises the recompense.”
