16. 16 ? 1 John 4:12,13 12 No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us. 13 By this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit.

18. 5/20/2015 18 In The Life of The Christian The Indwelling of The Holy Spirit Thus the only conclusion that one must draw from such a study, is the fact that the word "DWELL" DOES NOT NECESSITATE A LITERAL INDWELLING OF THE PERSON. Another problem that is quickly overlooked is the subject of INCARNATION: Col 2:9 ; I Tim. 3:16 ; John 1:1,14.Simply stated this is when Deity personally and literally dwells in the flesh ---- Col 2:9 ; I Tim. 3:16 ; John 1:1,14. If Deity dwells in our flesh, literally and personally, how is our flesh any different from that of Christ??? Naturally one must concluded that such a conclusion would promote and elevate man to a place which he does not occupy!!! It is natural to see why it is so important to understand the difference between the presence of God and the Personage of God.
