Man is a creation of God, forgetting this man try to draw lines around God. I mean man try to see and understand God in human ways, and claim and sell his ideas with others. This is really building a house and locking God in it. God prefer to enter in our hearts and make that his dwelling place if we allow him freedom. God is so much ahead of us, who has the wisdom to build his home.

Yes, Our Father dwells in us by recieving Him as Jesus said in Revelation 3 20. so He does not dwell in the temple build by the hands of men.

It is important to look back on paul 's letter to the ephesians 2.19 20 where paul reveals that now the gentiles are no more strangers but fellowcitizens of the saints, and are being built in the foundation of the apostles and of the prophets in which Jesus Christ is the corner stone...We see that God Himself is building this temple using christians as the raw material to build his own dwelling.

Howbeit God does not dwell in houses made by hands..John Says that " But all them that received Jesus were made sons of God..whom they were not born by the will of man but by the will of God. so Being God a Spirit He might dwell in our new born spirit..

God does not dwell in the houses built by us He dwells in our bodies. Our bodies are His houses where He lives
