Be careful when you feel confident in your knowledge of God: '...But Jesus answered and said to them, "You are mistaken, not understanding the Scriptures, or the power of God..." (Matthew 22:29)'

Our bodies are temples?

I remember hearing once that our bodies are temples and thus we shouldn't eat bad food or avoid working out. As an avid Crossfitter (www.crossfit.com), I think I have the second one covered, but I could probably eat better. There is nothing better-tasting in my opinion than a double Whopper with cheese from Burger King and some fries from MacDonald's (I know- I have to go to two places to get a good meal...).

But, what of the idea that we should take care of our bodies for the Lord by working out and eating healthy? I think there might be something to that, but not sure of the principle behind it.
