What does the Bible say about temple of the holy spirit?

Bible Topic · WEB

The Bible teaches that believers, both individually and together as Christ’s church, are the dwelling place of God’s Holy Spirit and therefore belong wholly to him. In 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, Paul grounds bodily holiness in Christ’s redeeming purchase of his people, calling them to glorify God in their bodies. First Corinthians 3:16-17 and 2 Corinthians 6:16 emphasize the church as God’s holy temple, warning against defilement and idolatry. Through union with Christ, believers are made new creations and are being built together into a spiritual house, as Ephesians 2:21-22 and 1 Peter 2:4-5 teach. This truth calls Christians to repentance, purity, love, and reverent confidence in God’s abiding presence.
