神不单是要以人为祂的居所，神也要人以祂为居所
你若仔细读旧约圣经，你能读出来，那些敬虔的人，他们最渴慕的一件事，也是叫他们里头最得安慰，最得安息的一件事，就是他们能住在神的殿中。请大家记得，这一个家乃是神人二者调和而成的，也是神人二者互相为居所的，神住在这个里面，人也住在这个里面。神住在这个里面，是以人为居所，人住在这个里面，是以神为居所。
神若没有人，神就没有家；人若没有神，人也没有家
圣经给我们看见，人是神的家，神也是人的家。在这一个宇宙里头，神如果没有得着一班人，祂就是一位无家可归的神。同样，亲爱的朋友，你若没有得着神，你也是一个无家可归的人！我请问大家，你们住在哪里？有人说，我住在仁爱路，有人说，我住在信义路。我要问大家，你们真住在那些地方么？只要稍微环境有一些变动，或是在你身上发生一点变故，你就不知道要到那里去了。
人永远的居所乃是神。人如果没有神，人在地上就是个无家可归的人。所以在诗篇里，那一班敬虔的古圣就说，主阿，你世世代代作我们的居所。这意思就是说，历世历代我们的列祖都住在你里面，今天我们也住在你里面。这些属地的住处，并不是我们的居所；我们永远的居所，乃是我们的神。主的自己才是我们可归之家、我们的安息之所。
神的建造乃是神人互为居所而成的宇宙之家
这一切的话语给我们看见，整个的宇宙需要一所建筑物，神住在里头是以人为居所，人住在里头是以神为居所。人如何是神的住处；神也如何是人的居所。神人二者互为居所。没有人，神是漂流的神，是无家可归的神；同样，人没有神，人也是漂流的人，也是无家可归的人。
因此神在整个宇宙中，所要有的一所建筑，就是要把祂建造到人里面，也把人建造到祂里面，好叫祂与人，人与祂，互为居所。约翰一书说，神将祂的灵赐给我们，从此就知道我们是住在祂里面，祂也住在我们里面。我们和祂是互相居住。神今天就是要这样建造我们，叫我们成为灵宫，成为神的殿，成为一所宇宙的建筑物，成为一个宇宙之家，使神有归宿，使人也有住处，使神与人在这里，都得到安息。

God’s Building Is For God to Be Man’s Dwelling Place – Psa. 23:6
God Not Only wants Man to be His Dwelling Place, But He Also Wants Man to Make Him His Dwelling Place
If you read the Old Testament carefully, you can see that the thing that those godly people longed for the most, and the thing that gave them the most comfort and rest, was that they could live in the temple of God. Please remember that this home is the mingling of God and man, and it is also the home of God and man. God lives in this house, and man also lives in this house. When God lives in this place, man is his dwelling place, and when man lives in this place, God is his dwelling place.
If God Does Not Have Man, He Has No Home; If Man Does Not Have God, Man Has No Home Either
The Bible shows us that man is the household of God, and God is also the household of man. In this universe, if God did not gain a group of people, He was a homeless God. Likewise, dear friend, if you have not gained God, you are also a homeless person! Let me ask you all, where do you live? Some may say, I live on Renai Road, some say, I live on Xinyi Road. I would like to ask each one of you, do you really live in those places? As long as the environment changes slightly or something happens to you, you won’t know where you will be.
Man’s eternal dwelling place is God. If man did not have God, he would be homeless on earth. Therefore, a group of pious saints said in Psalms, Lord, you will be our dwelling place from generation to generation. This means that our fathers have lived in you throughout the ages, and we also live in you today. These earthly dwellings are not our true residence; our eternal residence is our God. The Lord Himself is our home and our resting place.
God’s Building Is a Universal Home Where God and Man Dwell Mutually
All these words show us that the entire universe needs a building. God lives in it as a dwelling place for man, and man lives in it as a building with God as his dwelling place. Just as man is the dwelling place of God, so God is the dwelling place of man. God and man are a mutual abode. Without man, God is a wandering and homeless God; in the same manner, without God, man is also a wandering and homeless person.
Therefore, the building that God wants to have in the entire universe is to build Him into man and build man into Him, so that He and man, and man and He, may dwell in each other. 1 John says that we know that we abide in Him and He in us, when God has given us His Spirit. He and we live together. This is how God wants to build us today, making us a spiritual temple, a temple of God, a universal building and a home, so that God has a destination and man has a place to live, so that God and man can all rest in peace.
