GOD'S DWELLING PLACE TODAY ON EARTH IS THE CHURCH, AND GOD HAS A FAMILY, WHICH IS THE CHURCH.

in #family7 years ago

Ephesians 2:19 "So then you are no longer strangers and sojourners, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God"

We as the church are God's house, God's dwelling place. At the same time, we are God's family. Both the house of God and the family of God are one entity, that is, a group of regenerated, called ones, indwelt by God Himself. These called ones, who have been regenerated by God with His life and who are being indwelt by this living God with all that He is, are both God's dwelling place and His family. This is more than an assembly. This is different from a group or organization of people. This is something organic—organic in the divine life, organic in the divine nature, and organic in the Triune God.

He created us from his own image, so we are automatically his own

If we accept Christ as our personal Savior, we become God's temple. And we, too, are His children. We then belong to His family. Praise the Lord!
