I was also thinking as I read your post shag, about the mansions in heaven. If we are the temples or the living house....we are being perfected daily here on earth....those mansions in heaven being built are us(?), being built while here...and we will put on immortality one day....

maybe we are those mansions??!! Just a thought.

(still wonderin about N.T. scripture for "temple" or "house" being a church building. I realize what David wrote in psalms, probably speaking of the O.T. tabernacle.
...And I thought/think/hope LOL my mansion walls will be made of cheesecake!!!!!


ICor. 2:9-
However, as it is written: "No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him."


Thanx a mil for givin me your thoughts American Angel.

Tied to what U said, could "WE" possibly be the new temple thats being built? in Jerusulem (in Daniel?) Each person being "a stone" in the temple? (Since we are the N.T. temple)

Rev. 21:2 I also saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared like a bride adorned for her husband.I heard a loud voice from the throne say, "See, the tabernacle of God is among humans! He will make his home with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them, and he will be their God. (sure sound a lot like John 14 to me, him abiding in us)

Eph 2:22 In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.

Eph. 4:16 from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love

(still wonderin about any N.T. scripture for a church building being a "house or temple of God". Psalms is Old Testament, him speaking of the "Tabernacle of David" I assume.)
