On 1 Cor. 6:12-20...

Somehow Paul envisages the Christian's relationship with the Lord Jesus not simply as a 'spiritual' one, but also a physical one: not of course in the sexual sense, but in the sense that Jesus wants to know us and work through us as fully physical human beings, both here and hereafter. After all, God raised Jesus the Lord, and will raise us too; so what you do with your body matters.
--N.T. Wright, Paul for Everyone: 1 Corinthians
