The temple of God is not in Jerusalem. It is not made of brick, marble, or gold. The temple of God is made of flesh and bone. We, believers in Jesus Christ, are the temple of God. (I Cor 3:16) This does not mean, as some pagans would suggest, that we are gods or God. It does mean that when we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, we receive God The Holy Spirit indwelling in us. Thus, we have an intimate relationship with our God. God the Holy Spirit indwells us to mark us as His own, to love us, to teach us, to fill us with hope, and to empower us to preach the Gospel and to be sanctified and made holy. Because of the work of the Holy Spirit in us, we grow in wisdom and knowledge of the Lord.
Are you a temple of the Most High? If not, you can be!
