Your Body is a Temple of the Holy Spirit! This is a Myth because the word translated Temple is Naos, which means Sanctuary. In the New Testament, every time the body is spoken about as a place of worship, the Greek word used is Naos. The Latin text has Temple. So many English translations had Temple that now Bible dictionaries have Temple as the meaning of Naos. Naos is used every time the Sanctuary is the appropriate place, as in Matthew 23:35. so would come upon you all the righteous blood being shed upon the earth from the blood of the righteous Abel until the blood of Zechariah son of Barachiah, whom you murdered between the Sanctuary and the altar. Often this is translated between the Temple and the altar, but the altar and the Sanctuary are both in the middle of the Temple, so it is impossible to be between the altar and Temple. The Greek word Naos is used here. (See Sanctuary in Glossary for more on this.)
