How do we know that Christ is the temple of God?

Answered in 1 source

The New Testament reveals that Christ is the temple of God, where the fullness of the Godhead dwells.

The New Testament makes it clear that Jesus Christ is the true temple of God, as stated in John 2:19-21, where He speaks of His body as the temple. This declaration demonstrates that all previous temples, made with human hands, are inadequate representations of God's dwelling. Christ's incarnation embodies the fullness of the Godhead, as mentioned in Colossians 2:9, emphasizing His divine nature. In Him, believers find their identity as members of this spiritual temple, indicating that God's presence is not confined to physical structures but dwells within His people through faith in Christ.
