But the message is still the same and the person reading it would interpreted it as to were you come from Spiritually. But in Paul's heart it would be The Temple in Jerusalem as that is where he came from Spiritually. | |

Your answer could be strengthened by adding analysis showing the the context in I Corinthians also supports this interpretation and/or showing this is what Paul has in mind when he describes people as "temples" in other letters. | |
