For the New Testament believers, the presence of God was no longer external, but internal. When Jesus broke the curse of death, he opened our hearts to life in God’s presence and the life of Christ in us.  That’s where you live today. In his presence and filled with his presence.

He’s here now, with you, in you. The same Spirit...
