GOD IS NOT IN HEAVEN
SINCE God created the heavens and the earth in the beginning as recorded by Genesis chapter 1v1 he could not have been in what he created, he must have been existing outside the heavens and earth.
NOTE: “the Bible calls God the immortality that dwells in unapproachable light which man will never see as recorded in 1 Timothy 6v16. If you say he dwells in heaven then you have to understand that if there was a day God created the heavens and the earth, the question then is: Where was He before that day?”
However, God must be where he is before he created the heavens and earth because “God says I am God I change not. Since God does not live in heaven, God did not create heaven for himself. Heaven was created for man.”
THE PERSON IN HEAVEN NOW IS THE MAN CHRIST JESUS. “God decided that he wants to be a family man. And he says as a family man, my family must know me. But as God, they can’t know me. So God sat down and walked out of God. God looked at God. The Lord said to my Lord, (the pre-incarnate said to the incarnate) you go and I will wait here. God was talking to himself.”
He explained further that “the other God came into the womb of a woman. The first birth of Jesus was not an actual birth in the real sense of birth. It was manifestation of God (not in heaven, but where he was before heaven was created). That was why Paul talking to Timothy in 1 Timothy 3v16, said that great is the MYSTERY of Godliness that GOD IS MANIFEST IN THE FLESH. So the first birth of Christ was the APPEARANCE OF GOD IN THE HUMAN form.”
*WHERE DOES GOD LIVE?*
Some say God lives in heaven.
I ask, where was He before He made heaven?
God did not make heaven for Himself.
He didn't need it.
Both heaven and earth were made for man.
Some say He used to live in the temple and that when Jesus died, He left the temple when the curtain into the most holy place was torn apart from top to bottom.
Ah no!
God was NEVER in the temple.
The curtain tore open to prove that He was NEVER there.
God told David his son would build him a house. David assumed God was referring to Solomon.
2 Chronicles 6:9
Notwithstanding thou shalt not build the house; but thy son which shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the house for my name.
But in reality God was referring to Jesus, not Solomon.
So when Solomon built it, he knew what he built couldn't be what God was talking about.
How could God live in a house made with sand, bricks and wood?
1 Kings 8:27
But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have builded?
Both Stephen and Paul said as much
Acts 7:48
Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet,
Acts 17:24
God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;
God's house was not the temple then and it's not your church building today.
The masterpiece of archetectural configuration that we build today as places of worship, we build them for ourselves not for God.
Church building projects are not necessarily God's building project.
God's building project is in men, not in things.
1 Corinthians 3:9
For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.
See what Jesus was accused of
Mark 14:58
We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands.
The accusation was true.
Jesus is the one who built God a house by His death, burial and resurrection.
God has no other house except the one Jesus built Him.
God's house is in born again men.
God's house is the new creation.
God's house today is you and I.
This is where God will live forever.
