The Temple of God, Part 3
May 28, 2014
The Temple of God: It's of great signficance both to Jews and Christians. Why? Because it's the place where God dwells. But the death and resurrection of Christ makes an important distiction with the temple. The New Testament explains that God no longer dwells within a building, but within believers. 2 Corinthians 5:16 says "For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will dwell in them and walk among them. I will be their God, and they shall be my people."

Today Pastor Jeff explains that this conflict may pave the way for the anti-christ to come and offer a solution of reconciliation. Could a rebuilt temple be the center of the solution?

Throughout Israels history, the temple of God has been the central focal point. In times past it has been built and destroyed. However, Revelation chapter eleven gives an important clue that the temple will one day stand again. So why is the temple so important? Because it's known to be the place where man can enter God's presence. But this all changed 2,000 years ago when Jesus gave himself for the sins of the world. This opened up the presence of God to be available at any time, any place, through Jesus our Messiah.

Why does the Bible promise tribulation? And why does it say to be joyful in these troubled times? Well, as we'll discover today on Sound Doctrine, tribulations come to bring forth God's glory in our lives. There is a sweetness that comes out of these trying times.

Today we'll conclude Part 1 of our study entitled "The Bittersweet of God" and Pastor Jeff reminds us of the soon return of Christ, and the need to get right with Him in these last days.

The ministry of angels is frequently at work, especially in the life of a believer. Hebrews 4:14 says "Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will inherit salvation?" And as Dr. Billy Graham once said "angels are God's secret agents. They are ministering servants, protecting, delivering, and sometimes guiding." We'll here more about this as Pastor Jeff describes a certain angel found in Revelation chapter 10.

The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 5:17 that "if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; and all things have become new."

However, many have not received this free gift and this means the sting of death is still a reality. Pastor Jeff will explain today the importance of repenting and receiving Christ as Lord.
