Bible Question (short): God dwell with Men? or Men with God? |
Question (full): You said, Heaven is where God is, but your verses say that God will make his dwelling with men. No where did the term heaven even appear in your passages. I've heard many say, "We will all meet in Heaven some day." But I only read that we will all meet in the New Earth and God will dwell among us. Not unlike when the Tabernacle was built in Exodus, and God dwelt among them. Ex 25:8, “Then have them make a sanctuary for me, and I will dwell among them.” Note, it did not say he dwelt IN the sanctuary (where is Glory was) but that He dwelt AMONG them. Again, in Genesis 2, we see God dwelling among Adam and Eve. So, where does the idea of us all living for ever in Heaven come from? MJH |
