The dwelling place of God is with man: The hopes of the Old and New Testaments are fully realized. Since humanity sinned (Genesis 3), separation from God has been humanity's biggest problem (Genesis 3:23). God has called his people to him through the prophets, Jesus his Son, and the Spirit's presence (see Genesis 17:8; Exodus 29:45–46; Psalms 46:4–5; 95:7; Jeremiah 7:23; 31:33; Ezekiel 34:14; 37:27; Zechariah 8:8; John 14:2–3; 17:24). In the new heaven and earth, God's people will finally enjoy ultimate and everlasting fellowship with God.
