This verse is not speaking of the Christian's body. It is speaking of the body of Christ, the Church and its corporate expression of being the dwelling place of the Holy Spirit. All of the "you" references are plural.

"The heart is the main thing in true religion...It is the hinge and turning-point in the condition of man's soul. If the heart is alive to God and quickened by the Spirit, the man is a living Christian. If the heart is dead and has not the Spirit, the man is dead before God." (J.C. Ryle)
