A Temple - 1 Corinthians 6:19-20

1 Corinthians 6:19-20 ESV 


Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.


Where is the temple of the living God? It is in the flesh of one who has become a living spirit in the life of God. This is the temple Jesus would rebuild in three days. 


Glorify God in your body because His glory has entered your body. You have become holy, for He is Holy. You have agreed to walk together. This is the abiding as one. 


Collectively we make up the temple of God. In the New Jerusalem there is no temple because the Father and Son are the temple. We are in that temple and minister as a royal priesthood.
