Show Notes

God promises in Leviticus 26:11 that "I will put my dwelling place among you... I will walk among you and be your God, and you will be my people."  God makes His dwelling among us in Christ Jesus (John 1:14). God's people's identity is derived from His faithfulness and from their special relationship with Him. 

He brings peace that lasts forever. Ezekiel 37:23-26. God will cleanse His people, they will all have one shepherd, and a covenant of peace that lasts forever will be put in place. 

Peace comes from the summary Jesus gave Mary Magdalene outside the garden tomb: God is now our Father, Jesus now our brother. Everything has fallen into place; and the spirit brings peace without fear (John 14:25-27), and the Father and Son team bring peace that congress the world (John 16:32-33).
