Where is God's House Today? Part 2

Part 1 one of the series was posted yesterday and has generated quite a lot of site traffic so I thought I should not keep you waiting for the second part in the series!

The opening video was a general introduction to the subject.  Part 2 goes right back to the early part of God's dealings with the human race.  It seems that God has always wanted a collective people for himself.  In the Old Testament, that people was Israel, who entered a special covenant with God and became a redeemed and obedient group - they were to be obedient to the law of God and also obedient to the pattern of worship that God laid out in immense detail in connection with the Tabernacle.

Later parts of the series will trace the collective aspects laid here throughout the Old Testament and show how it changed dramatically when we get to the New Testament - a change which is still with us today - but the importance of which seems to have been overlooked by the majority of Christians.

This is a short 8 minute clip.

Where is God's House Today? Part 1

This is a short video of less than 7 minutes which is the first of series on the subject of where is God's House today?  In the Old Testament, God lived first in a tabernacle (tent) and then in a temple? It is true of course that God now lives inside every believer, from the day of Pentecost onwards.

But is there an equivalent dwelling place for God in the New Testament that can still exist today, that operates in a collective way like it did for the people of Israel?  This video, and the rest of the series,  argues that the answer to that question is yes, and that this has great importance for every Christian who is interested in serving God in a way that he has instructed us to do.  Take a look and I would be very interested to hear what you think.
