I believe Jesus is the way, the life and the truth. He was risen again on the third day by the Holy Spirit of God.
But the question now is , does one believe HIS WORDS . that is the KEY .
or do men rather twist and omit some of them words . Just a good reminder for all to hear and to take heed unto it .

That sounds like the establishment of the heavenly Jerusalem. Laying down the mosaic law, and establishing Christ law and administration.
This is something missing in the interpretation of this verse…..he spoke of “the temple of his body”….but if we read in Eph 2:18-22…..Paul says of Jesus….

“For through him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father. So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit. (ESV)

The “body of Christ” is not his physical body, nor the one he was raised in…..his “body” is his elect, who were granted access to heaven when he gave his life, because his death paved the way for them to do so. The curtain in the Temple that separated the Most Holy from the Holy compartment was rent in two when Jesus died, symbolizing this fact. No one went to heaven before Christ….(John 3:13)

Seeing his words with spiritual eyes reveals what he really meant.
