And what is done in the real or perceived “Temple of God” sets the standard for the rest of society.

It begins with scriptural regeneration by and subsequent relationship with Christ, hand by which the Scriptures come alive as the word of God, versus being considered Christian by infant baptism, Catholic or Protestant, and never hearing strong preaching on their damned and destitute condition, being utterly unable to be saved based upon their moral merit of the power of their church, and thus casting all their faith upon the mercy of God in Christ to save them by His sinless shed blood.

And which faith effects obedience to its object, and a basic literal (in context) view of the Scriptures, versus its liberal revisionist rendering which is common in much of Catholicism and Protestantism.
