Indwelling Scheme A scheme which derives its name from that passage in Colossians 2:9. "In him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily, " which, according to some, asserts the doctrine of Christ's consisting of two beings; one the self-existent Creator, and the other a creature made into one person by an ineffable union and indwelling, which renders the same attributes and honours equally applicable to both.
