How does the gospel connect to God’s dwelling places?

The gospel reveals that God's ultimate dwelling place is in Christ, as emphasized in the message of Hebrews and in the teaching of Jesus in John 14:2-3. Christ’s sacrifice prepared a place for believers in the Father's house, symbolizing the eternal relationship we have with God. The preaching of the gospel within the gathered church also serves as a current dwelling place where Christ is present among His people. This connection illustrates the continuity of God’s provision from the earthly tabernacle to the heavenly reality secured through Christ’s work on the cross.
