The Household of God

God resides explicitly in a distinctive and familial way among his people. God dwells in heaven in the sense that his glory, majesty, and holiness are on display there in particular richness while also assuring his people that he will “be glory in her midst” (Zech. 2:5). Moved by his inexhaustible love for the church before the foundation of the world, God resides in her midst with “all spiritual blessings in heavenly places” (Eph. 1:3), so that even now those who are part of his family on earth “sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus” (Eph. 2:6). In today's episode, we explore the definition of the church as the "household of God."
