Ook behoort gij Uzelf niet toe, want gij werd met een prijs gekocht

19 Wat! Weet GIJ niet dat ulieder lichaam [de] tempel*+ is van de heilige geest die in U is,+ die GIJ van God hebt? Ook behoort GIJ UZELF niet toe,+ 20 want GIJ werd met een prijs gekocht.+ Verheerlijkt dan toch vooral God+ in ulieder lichaam.+  (1 Korinthiërs 6:19-20)

Tempel: of: „goddelijke woonplaats (woning).” Gr.: na′os; Lat.: tem′plum; J^17,22(Hebr.): hē·khal′, „paleis; tempel”.

1 Korinthiërs 3:16: 16 Weet GIJ niet dat gijlieden Gods tempel* zijt+ en dat de geest van God in U woont?+

2 Korinthiërs 6:16:16 En welke overeenkomst heeft Gods tempel* met afgoden?+ Want wij zijn een tempel+ van een levende God, zoals God heeft gezegd: „Ik zal onder hen verblijven+ en onder [hen] wandelen, en ik zal hun God zijn en zij zullen mijn volk zijn.”+

is van de heilige geest die in U is:

1 Thessalonicenzen 4:8: 8 Wie daarom blijk geeft van minachting,+ minacht niet een mens, maar God,+ die zijn heilige geest+ in U legt.

met een prijs gekocht:

1 Korinthiërs 7:23: 23 GIJ werdt met een prijs gekocht;+ wordt niet langer slaven+ van mensen.

Hebreeën 9:12:12 is hij, neen, niet met* het bloed+ van bokken en van jonge stieren, maar met zijn eigen bloed,+ eens voor altijd de heilige plaats binnengegaan en heeft een eeuwige bevrijding* [voor ons] verworven.*+

1 Petrus 1:18:18 Want GIJ weet dat GIJ niet met vergankelijke dingen,+ met zilver of goud, werd bevrijd*+ van UW vruchteloze vorm van gedrag, die GIJ door overlevering van UW voorvaders hebt ontvangen.

Verheerlijkt dan toch vooral God:

Mattheüs 5:16: 16 Laat evenzo UW licht+ voor de mensen schijnen, opdat zij UW voortreffelijke werken+ mogen zien en UW Vader, die in de hemelen is, heerlijkheid geven.+

1 Petrus 2:12: 12 Bewaart een voortreffelijk gedrag onder de natiën,+ opdat zij in datgene waarin zij ten nadele van U spreken als over boosdoeners, ten gevolge van UW voortreffelijke werken,+ waarvan zij ooggetuigen zijn, God mogen verheerlijken op [zijn] inspectiedag.+

in ulieder lichaam:

Romeinen 12:1: 12 Dientengevolge verzoek ik U dringend, broeders, op grond van Gods mededogen, UW lichaam aan te bieden+ als een slachtoffer+ dat levend,+ heilig+ en God welgevallig+ is, een heilige dienst*+ met UW denkvermogen.+

1 Korinthiërs 12:27: 27 GIJ nu zijt Christus’ lichaam en ieder afzonderlijk leden.+

Efeziërs 4:12: 12 met het oog op het terechtbrengen*+ van de heiligen, voor het werk der bediening, tot opbouw van het lichaam van de Christus,+

Romeinen 12:5: 5 zo zijn wij, hoewel velen, één lichaam+ in eendracht met Christus, maar leden die ieder afzonderlijk elkaar toebehoren.+

Efeziërs 1:23: 23 welke zijn lichaam+ is, de volheid+ van hem die alles in allen vervult.+

Kolossenzen 1:24: 24 Thans verheug ik mij dat ik voor U mag lijden,+ en ik, op mijn beurt, vul in mijn vlees aan wat ontbreekt aan de verdrukkingen+ van de Christus ten behoeve van zijn lichaam, dat de gemeente is.+

Efeziërs 4:16: 16 Van hem uit bevordert het gehele lichaam,+ doordat het harmonisch is samengevoegd en zo gemaakt dat het samenwerkt* door middel van elk gewricht dat geeft wat nodig is, naar gelang elk respectief lid in de juiste mate werkzaam is, de groei van het lichaam tot opbouw van zichzelf in liefde.+

• Getting The Temple Into Shape (singlechristanwomen.wordpress.com)
  Exercising and eating right have not been a big emphasis in Christendom. Besides references to gluttony in Catholicism, many Christians do not spend enough time getting their temple into a fit and  healthy shape. In all my years, there have only been a handful of sermons that taught the followers of God to be mindful of what they eat or discussed the importance of consistent exercise.
