The meaning of the most high dwelleth not in temples made with hands?
Put simply it means that the one and only true God is so great He cannot be confined to anything created by mortal man. Solomon, at the dedication of the first magnificent temple, one of the wonders of the ancient world, described it thus: 27But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have built? _________________________________________________ The word "dwelleth" means to live or take up residence. Indeed it is impossible to build a Temple for God to fully dwell in because as stated in 1Kings 8:27 even the heaven of heavens cannot contain him. However, God did visit and his presence was visible behind the Holy of Holies above the angels. And indeed, this holy place was the habitation of God's Spirit and presence in as much glory as was needed to reveal himself and to bless the nation. There has been a false teaching now for many years, that if a Church is called a Temple, that this means the Pastor or Minister makes a claim he has captured God and he must dwell in the edifice as a residence. This accusation is made and then the claim is made that God dwelleth not in Temples. The Temple in Jerusalem was a shrine in which worship to the God of the name was made. A Temple can be a shrine with no intention whatsoever to make a claim God lives there or has taken up his earthly residence there. As a Temple-Shrine, all that is needed is worship to God, the divine name of Jesus placed there, and God said he would come and visit with his presence. Those who have a Church-Temple need not be rebuked or ashamed to call their worship center a Temple. We know there is no claim to capture God and make him a prisoner of man in such places. We know these are Shrines in which the name of Jesus is glorified and worship is offered to God. For those who deny God can make his habitation in a Temple, please run reference on the word "habitation" and see if God did come and his glory filled the Temple. In the analogy that our body is "now" the Temple of God, for this to make any sense and the analogy true: then God had to dwell in the old Temple in the Old Testament. The scripture also says: "neither is worshipped with men's hands" (Acts 17:25). Yet those who rant the most against a Church being called a Temple, claim they worship God with their hands. A Church can be called a Tabernacle, a House of prayer for all nations, or the House of God. There is no scripture that says God does not dwell in Tabernacles, or a House of prayer, or a house of God. And when it says he dwelleth not in Temples made with hands, it must be understood what this means. For it surely does not mean God refused to make the Temple his habitation.

Why did Paul the Apostle compare humans to temples of God?
When a person accepts Jesus Christ as their personal Savior (Born Again; Saved; Regenerated; come to the Lord, a Christian) the Holy Spirit comes to dwell in that person. The Holy Spirit is "God the Holy Spirit", the third person of the Trinity. I Corinthians 3:16-17, " Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? If anyone defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which temple you are." I Corinthians 6:19-20, "Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? For you were bought with a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's." The Christian's body is a temple because the Holy Spirit dwells with in them. We belong to God.
