1 Cor:6:19-20 Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own, you were bought at a price. Therefore honour God with your body.

In the Christian Bible? Yeah there is something to that effect, Paul is preaching to some ethnicity or another and is saying something to the effect of cleanliness is next to Godliness. Don't remember what book or verse though sorry.

I don't know, but there should be. I wish I had been taught that as a child. The idea of your body being the temple of God, is a good idea and I wish I had known it sooner. I would be in such bad shape today.

no--but there are implied scriptures
Rom 6:12
12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.

1cor6:19
19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

As long as you ba, ka, heart, shadow, and intelligence are okay, then why must it matter if you tattoo your skin, cut your hair, etc..?

Those are all you really need for the Afterlife anyway. I will see you all in the Fields of Aalu, assuming your hearts are light with good deeds. Good day, kind mortals.

well,yes,the ten commandants outlaws pretty much everything and has lots of little sins built in just in case you try to sneak one in on the blind side;this one is covered i think by the seventh commandant although seemingly not if you were an animal and God tested abraham by ordering him to sacrifice his son,although he called it off at the last moment,the big pussy {message interrupted by a thunderbolt}=help desk

NOT in the sense your looking For.
GOD is a SPIRIT.
GOD IS LIGHT and LOVE and TRUTH and POWER.
our earthly body has a lifespan of 120 years.
how much darkness, evil, vileness we allowed IN US..the spirit mank, the shorter our LIFESPAN IS.
GOD don't want us to IDOLIZED OUR BODY.
HE want us to care for it..for it is BORN of the Dust of the Earth..and the earth elements..herbs, vitamins, minerals are logically the CURES of our body..our SPIRIT FOOD is the WORDS OF GOD..that is POWERFUL and GIVE LIVES..love..and truth..and we PUT FAITH in what HE SAID..is WISER and final.
again..there is NO condemnation that your looking for in scriptures. GOD IS HOLY>.so YOU BE HOLY..so you see..GOD is a SPIRITUAL BEING..GOD IS LOVE..HE wants us to love him..with ALL of our being..spirit..soul(mind) and body.
IF YOU LOVE ME..obey my commandments love HIM FIRST and ABOVE..love/respect OTHERS..as well LOVE and HONOR YOURSELF..we can GET BENT and make our BODY "GOD"..that isn't wise..our BODY is our responsibility to care for it..having good sleep..(foundational) have good natural food and drinks..as well have good relationship with HIM and others..(emotions) and take care of your body..YOU/WE only have ONE LIFE to LIVE..so live it RIGHT before GOD..(love him.others and self.in that order too)..and take care of your body..it can LIVE 120 years !! sins not repented of, open doors to diseases.which shorten life and bring family suffering..unforgiveness open ALL of HELL onto us.
FOR GOD is LOVE..apart from LOVE..is apart from GOD..who is our Enternity with HIM..through the DOOR..JESUS the Christ.
I hope this help..balance is very important..

There are some sciptures that metion and laws and rules concerning the body.

1 Corinthians 6:18-20
Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a man commits are outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body. 19 Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20 you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body.

Matthew 5:29
If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.


Matthew 10:28
Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.

Romans 6:13
Do not offer the parts of your body to sin, as instruments of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God, as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer the parts of your body to him as instruments of righteousness.


1 Corinthians 12:12
The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ.

Luke 12:5
But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear him who, after the killing of the body, has power to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him.

1 Corinthians 6:13-17
"Food for the stomach and the stomach for food"—but God will destroy them both. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. 14 By his power God raised the Lord from the dead, and he will raise us also. 15 Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ himself? Shall I then take the members of Christ and unite them with a prostitute? Never! 16 Do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body? For it is said, "The two will become one flesh." 17 But he who unites himself with the Lord is one with him in spirit.

1 Corinthians 6:18-
18Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a man commits are outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body. 19Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body.
