God's Dwelling Place
This morning I am thinking about Colossians 2:9:
For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form,
Douglas Moo says, "God in his fullness has not taken up residence in and therefore revealed himself in a building but in a body. Characteristic of the new covenant administration is the replacement of the Temple with Christ as the focus for God’s presence and as the nucleus of God’s people."*
