GOD’S HOUSE

Acts 7:47-50 King James Version (KJV)

47 But Solomon built him an house. 48 Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet, 49 Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool: what house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what is the place of my rest? 50 Hath not my hand made all these things?

Acts 7:47-50 Common English Bible (CEB)

47 But it was Solomon who actually built a house for God.48 However, the Most High doesn’t live in houses built by human hands. As the prophet says, 49 Heaven is my throne,
    and the earth is my footstool. ‘What kind of house will you build for me,’ says the Lord,
    ‘or where is my resting place? 50 Didn’t I make all these things with my own hand?
