God Dwells in People—Not in Buildings
One example of believers trying to live under the provisions of the Old Covenant is believers calling the church building the “house of God.”
Under the New Covenant God dwells in people—not buildings. If people aren’t careful, they will put too much significance on a place—on buildings and on other material things.On the other hand, if we mean that a church building is the house of God because it is dedicated to the Lord and used for worship, that’s all right. But you must be careful that you don’t get out of line with the Word of God in this area because it is so easy to become taken up with material things in the sense realm—the natural realm which you can see—and miss the spiritual reality.
