Corpo é o templo de Deus
O corpo do cristão é templo de Deus. Ele habita em nós pelo Espírito Santo, fazendo do crente morada viva e sagrada do Altíssimo.
Templo do Deus vivo
Vós sois o templo do Deus vivo. Deus disse: habitarei neles e entre eles andarei. O criador mora em sua criação redimida.
Know ye not, that ye be the temple of God, and the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
And if any [man] defouleth the temple of God, God shall lose him; for the temple of God is holy, which ye be.
Whether ye know not, that your members be the temple of the Holy Ghost, that is in you, whom ye have of God, and ye be not your own?
For ye be bought with great price. Glorify ye, and bear ye God in your body.
and what consent to the temple of God with maumets? [or idols?] And ye be the temple of the living God, as the Lord saith, For I shall dwell in them, and I shall walk among them; and I shall be [the] God of them, and they shall be a people to me.
Therefore now ye be not guests and strangers, but ye be citizens of saints, and [the] household meine of God;
above builded on the founda-ment of apostles and of prophets, upon that highest cornerstone, Christ Jesus;
in whom each building made waxeth into an holy temple in the Lord.
In whom also ye be builded together into the habitation of God, in the Holy Ghost.
For each house is made of some man; he that made all things of nought is God.
And Moses was true in all his house, as a servant, into witnessing of those things that were to be said;
but Christ as a son in his house. Which house we be, if we hold firm trust and glory of hope into the end.

Cristo em nós
Já não sou eu quem vive, mas Cristo vive em mim. A presença de Deus no crente é privilégio e responsabilidade sagrada.
and I am fixed to the cross, that I live to God with Christ. And now live not I, but Christ liveth in me. But that I live now in flesh, I live in the faith of God’s Son, that loved me, and gave himself for me. [with Christ I am fixed to the cross. Forsooth I live now, not I, but Christ liveth in me. Forsooth that I live now in flesh, I live in the faith of God’s son, the which loved me, and betook himself for me.]
Jesus answered, and said to him, If any man loveth me, he shall keep my word; and my Father shall love him, and we shall come to him, and we shall dwell with him.
Therefore, brethren, having trust into the entering of holy things, in the blood of Christ,
which [he] hallowed to us a new way, and living by the covering [or by a veil], that is to say, his flesh,
and we having the great priest on the house of God,
nigh we with very heart, in the plenty of faith; and be our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with clean water,
But ye be a chosen kin [or ye be a kind chosen], a kingly priesthood, holy folk, a people of purchasing, that ye tell the virtues of him, that called you from darknesses into his wonderful light.
