Heaven is God’s throne
Isaiah 66:1 Thus saith the LORD, The
heaven is my throne, and the earth
is my footstool: where
is the house that ye build unto me? and where
is the place of my rest?
Matthew 5:34 But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by
heaven; for it is God's throne:
Acts 7:49 Heaven is my throne, and earth
is my footstool: what house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what
is the place of my rest?
1 Kings 8:27 But will God indeed dwell upon the earth? Even heaven, the highest
heaven, cannot contain You, much less this temple I have built.
Psalm 11:4 The LORD is in His holy temple, The LORD’s throne is in heaven; His eyes behold, His eyelids test the sons of men.
Jeremiah 23:24 "Can a man hide in secret places where I cannot see him?" declares the LORD.
"Do I not fill the heavens and earth?" declares the LORD.
God is in heaven on His throne which is heaven. He is in His holy temple. Heaven cannot contain Him. He fills the heavens and the earth.
Hebrews 12
18For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
19And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which
voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more:
20(For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart:
21And so terrible was the sight,
that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake
22But ye are come unto mount Sion, and
unto the city of the living God,
the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of
angels,
23To the general assembly and
church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and
to God the Judge of all, and
to the spirits of just men made perfect,
24And
to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than
that of Abel.
When we come to Jesus to be saved, we come to the city, the heavenly Jerusalem, to where the angels are, and the church, to God, to Jesus, and to the spirits of humans. We come to the temple.
Revelation 21
22 And I saw no temple therein: for
the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
23 And
the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for
the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.
God and Jesus are the TEMPLE IN THE CITY and the Light of the city; we are built up in that temple in the city.
The city is also called our mother.
Galatians 4:26 But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.
God is in heaven, in His holy temple. Heaven is God’s throne.
God and Jesus are the temple in the City, and glory of God lights it, Jesus is the light. The saved are in the body of Christ and God the temple.
God, Jesus, the church, the spirits of humans, and the angels are all in the holy city Jerusalem, our mother our home.
God fills the heaven and the earth. So tell me, how is it wrong to say the city is God?
