These phrases are not biblical phrases, so we can’t look at biblical definitions. But we can look at biblical examples to demonstrate what we mean. Three biblical examples of presence-centered communities include the Heavenly Throne Room, David’s Tabernacle and the Church at Antioch.Revelation 4-5 describes the heavenly scene where everything orients around the One on the throne and the Lamb. Musical, antiphonal, extravagant, day & night praise, worship and prayer are happening constantly.During his reign, King David revolutionized Israel's worship to reflect the heavenly throne room. He instituted musical, antiphonal, extravagant, day & night praise, worship and prayer around the Ark of the Covenant in his tent in Jerusalem.Acts 13 describes the believers at Antioch uniquely embracing ministry to the Lord, with fasting and prayer, in an ongoing way. Antioch is the prototype for a mature Christian church in the New Testament, even more so than Jerusalem.
