In his letter to the Corinthians Gordon Fee points out that the Apostle Paul appealed “to the presence of the Spirit in their lives in the context of the saving work of Christ. In ‘purchasing’ them for God’s glory, Christ also purchased their bodies, as evidenced by the Holy Spirit, whose temple they are because God now dwells not in temples made by human hands, but in temples constructed by his own hands. Thus they are not their own, to do with their bodies as they please. They belong to the God who purchased them through Christ’s [sin] sacrifice and now indwells them by his Spirit.”
