Living in God’s House: His Design in Action

Description

God uses the analogy of a garden to illustrate that He doesn’t want Christians to be isolated after they’ve been born again. Like a gardener, He wants to gather and plant them together in an organised garden setting. Likewise, God is a builder that brings individual stones together to form His house according to His own design. In this book, Brian Johnston traces the development of Gods House in the Bible and how it can still function today.
