How do we know our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit?

Answered in 1 source

1 Corinthians 6:19 confirms that our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit, who dwells in us.

The Apostle Paul explicates in 1 Corinthians 6:19 that our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit, which is a profound truth for Christians. This means that God’s Spirit resides in us, signifying His ownership and the sacredness of our physical form. This temple imagery underscores how we should treat our bodies with honor and respect. Moreover, being aware of the Holy Spirit dwelling within us compels us to live in a manner that is pleasing to God, avoiding sin, and acting as His instruments in the world.
