Sin would defile God's temple, wouldn't it?

Sexual sin is one.

“So run away from sexual sin. It involves the body in a way that no other sin does. So if you commit sexual sin, you are sinning against your own body. You should know that your body is a temple for the Holy Spirit that you received from God and that lives in you. You don’t own yourselves. God paid a very high price to make you his. So honor God with your body.”
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭6:18-20‬ ‭

“And Jesus said, “The things that make people wrong are the things that come from the inside. All these bad things begin inside a person, in the mind: bad thoughts, sexual sins, stealing, murder, adultery, greed, doing bad things to people, lying, doing things that are morally wrong, jealousy, insulting people, proud talking, and foolish living. These evil things come from inside a person. And these are the things that make people unacceptable to God.””
‭‭Mark‬ ‭7:20-23‬ ‭

Thank you for the replies. Doesn't Paul say that if a man destroys God's temple that God will  destroy them?

Yes

“If you destroy God’s temple, God will destroy you, because God’s temple is holy. You yourselves are God’s temple.”
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭3:17‬ ‭
 

But

“The Lord GOD says, “I don’t want evil people to die. I want them to change their lives so that they can live!”
‭‭Ezekiel‬ ‭18:23‬ ‭
 

God is good. We can change our ways and live.

I find it interesting that this chapter is talking about divisions and schisms in the church. When we tear each other down, we are possibly tearing down the temple of the HG?
