Election Construct Human Edifices As The Abode Of God’s Spirit

English “edifying” emboldened in Ephesians 4:29 “Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers” was translated from Greek feminine noun 3619 oikodome which is the construction of a human spiritual edifice as the abode of God’s spirit. Greek feminine noun 3619 oikodome was translated into “buildings” in Matthew 24:1 and Mark 13:1 & 2 and into “building” in 1Corinthians 3:5-9 “Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man”? “I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase”. “So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but  God that giveth the increase” “Now he that planteth and he that watereth are  one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour” “For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building. And Ephesians 2:19-22 “Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of God” “And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone” “In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord” “In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit”. English “builded together” emboldened in Ephesians 2:22 was translated from Greek verb 4925 sunoikodomeo from a compound of Greek preposition 4862 sun denoting union and Greek verb 3618 oikodomeo which is the verb form of Greek feminine noun 3619 oikodome which God previously defined above. Greek verb 3618 oikodomeo was translated into English “I should build” in Romans 15:20 to follow. Greek verb 3618 oikodomeo means to construct a human spiritual edifice as the abode of God’s spirit. Greek verb 3618 oikodomeo was translated into English “edifieth” in 1Corinthians 8:1 into “edify” in 1Thessalonians 5:11 into “are built up” in 1Peter 2:3-5 “If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious” “To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious” “Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ”. God’s “seven thousand” “election” are “a spiritual house, an holy priesthood” “Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years” between this earth age and the eternal age that follows. The “thousand years” in which God’s “seven thousand” “election” will cause “the rest” “to come unto the knowledge of the truth” “For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour” “Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth”.
