Which ways....let's be specific so we can address them one by one...OK?I am merely quoting scripture concerning the ways of God.
This is present tense, not past. So, where do you get this from? I agree that He has never broken His word and never will but your statement implies otherwise....
He makes his abode in by giving his holy spirit into us. But even holy spirit is not the Father himself, but is rather, sent by the Father to inhabit our bodies, and thus the Father spiritually resides in us.
I am not putting limits on God, I am merely quoting scripture concerning the ways of God. So it is in fact not my words, but the scriptures. There is a scripture that says even the heaven of the heavens cannot contain God, which I have quoted several times to you people. Will you not accept this scripture on the basis of your own understanding?

Lot's of stuff going on here just give me the post # so I am on track.The first way is that he cannot inhabit his own creation, which is what that scripture I quoted is saying. This is the topic at hand we are now discussing, which you people cannot accept
Yes He can...Let me ask you something in return, seeing this scripture I quoted, can the Father inhabit his own creation, yes or no?
And yet he dwells there.
No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known. (John 1:18 [NIV])

And everything you said there made no sense at all.....So what form the Father has to be seen, if he even has a form as Jesus could be speaking figuratively, is a mystery. I do not know, but based on the other scripture, he is not a being that can be contained in his own creation.
I don't see a verse....just your words.....So then explain the verse saying, even the heaven of the heaven cannot contain you, much less a temple I have built?

"But will God really dwell on earth? The heavens, even the highest heaven, cannot contain you. How much less this temple I have built! (1 Kings 8:27 [NIV])

Will Messiah dwell on earth?How many times must I quote this scripture?
These are not my own words, why can you not get it through your head?
Based on the text you used? Yes I do believe the Father can inhabit his creation.
1Ki 8:27 But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have builded?
Here's why, because the question raised is rhetorical, it is a statement made in humility. Will God indeed dwell on earth? The answer is in the Revelation, Behold the tabernacle of God is with men. It tells us that both the Father and the Son will be there: The Lord and his Christ.
Consider that God's hands made his dwelling place.
Exo 15:17 Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in the place, O LORD, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in, in the Sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.
Not only can God inhabit his creation, the Bible says he does.
Will Messiah dwell on earth?
Absolutely. And he is coming again to dwell on the earth. But we are talking about the Father, not Jesus.
So, what of Jesus....after his sacrifice do you just discard him?Absolutely. And he is coming again to dwell on the earth. But we are talking about the Father, not Jesus.
So, what of Jesus....after his sacrifice do you just discard him?
After all, he is just a created being.....So, what of Jesus....after his sacrifice do you just discard him?
After all, he is just a created being.....
Please sleep...we will all be better off.How does Jesus being a created being relate to being discarded? Are not the saints created beings, and are said to live forever? You speak like an infant, not knowing what you're saying. I believe I am going to sleep shortly, reasoning with you is of no avail.
