What does Emanuel mean? What does "God is with us" mean? How is its meaning to be applied to the coming of Jesus? It means by the work of Jesus God would dwell with those who love Jesus and keep and obey His teachings and Jesus too dwells with them. John 14: 23-24 'Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me."'
