Extract: Dwelling Places

 
Precious thought! Jesus says “In My Father’s house are many mansions” or abiding places. But until He takes us there to fill them, He comes down here and makes the believer’s heart His dwelling place. So we may say that here on this earth there are many mansions or abiding places for the Father and the Son. Wondrous truth that He should condescend to make our hearts His dwelling place, His mansion, His abode! What manner of persons ought we to be!
