The Church: A New Covenant!
lGod does not dwell in
temples made by men. (Acts
7:45-49; 17:24-28; Hebrews 9:6-28)
lGod DOES dwell in the
lives of believers, his Holy people! (John 17:23; 1
Cor. 6:19; 2 Cor. 5:1; 2 Thess. 1:10; Eph. 3:17, 5:3; Col. 1:27, 3:12; Heb. 13:12; 1
Peter 2:5,9)
lGod ALSO is present in
the corporate body of the church, which is the body of Christ,
and we already saw that HE equated HIS BODY with
the temple. (John 2:21; Rom. 12:4-8; 1 Cor. 3:17,
12: all; Eph. 2:22, 4:11-16;
Hebrews 3:6)
