If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. Defiles it and makes it unclean, being holy: ... 1 Corinthians 3:17  

1 Corinthians 3:16-17King James Version (KJV)

16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.

Jesus said I have not come to Judge but to saved, I would rather be a servant of your needs, than to Lord you with the fear of punishment. 

Paul perhaps, because he grew up in a very strict OT environment , may have taken for him, quite some time to distance himself from the old way, where anyone who offended the Temple, was kill by God, and if God did not kill him, he was kill by the people. 

Now we live in the new, and that does not mean, that God now has the right to destroy us, he is calling us to repentance, to restore us, to bless and not to course, to expose to love , the unlovable, and be kind to the unkind. 

Later Paul seeing that Jesus Christ did not destroy the people, he said the Lord is penciant and slow to act. 

JESUS CHRIST wants to destroy the wrong in us, not us. 

Jesus is calling the defiled to faith. 

What defiled means anyway.

Amen.  To defile the Temple of God in which we are all being knit and builded together into becoming a beautiful Temple of God.   Ephesians 2:21 "In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:" and to defile His Temple is not a good idea.
