What does it mean that we are a dwelling place of God?

Answered in 1 source

Being a dwelling place of God means that believers are collectively the church, inhabited by the Holy Spirit.

The scripture in Ephesians 2:22 describes believers as being 'built together for a habitation of God through the Spirit.' This signifies that the church is not a physical structure but a spiritual entity filled with the Holy Spirit. It reflects the intimate relationship between God and His people, where His presence can be experienced and manifested in communal worship and fellowship. This divine indwelling reassures believers of their identity in Christ, emphasizes the unity of the body of Christ, and calls them to reflect His glory in the world.
