What does the Bible say about who can be in God's presence?

Psalm 15 poses the profound question of who may abide in God's tabernacle and dwell on His holy hill. It states that those who dwell with the Lord are characterized by their integrity, justice, and truthfulness. Importantly, this psalm points to the reality that no human being, apart from Jesus Christ, can meet these criteria perfectly. The Lord Jesus exemplifies perfect integrity, having always acted in accordance with the will of His Father, and embodies true justice as He fulfilled the law and took upon Himself the punishment for sin. Therefore, it is through Him alone that we are granted access to the presence of God, as He is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6).
