22 But I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.

A. Under the Law of Moses the tabernacle, and later the temple, represented the presence of God.

B. Now, the presence of God is in the hearts of his people. (2 Corinthians 6:16-17) God has promised to dwell with us, walk with us, and be our God.

C. There is no need for a temple. We ARE the temple of God. (Ezekiel 37:27; 1 Corinthians 3:17) God is present in His people.
