    On Sun, 01/24/2021 - 05:00 AM

    The psalm poses the question of “Who may dwell with God?” It doesn’t simply look into the future as to who will dwell with God in the end but directs us to what it means to dwell with him now; to walk in faith and fellowship with the living God. It answers the question of what makes up a true profession of faith.
