The Holy Temple

Contributed by Jerry Flury on Mar 12, 2009

Paul tells the Corinthian Christians that there is a temple in which God does dwell and which should be dedicated as a house of the Lord Jesus Christ, a place of holiness and peace, set apart from the world. As a believer you are the Temple.

Challenged In The Temple Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on May 23, 2018

As Jesus entered the Temple for the second time during Passion Week, He immediately met opposition. The chief priests, scribes, and elders had conspired against Him. As we strive to serve the Lord, the enemy will bring opposition against us too.

Jesus' Last Visit To The Temple

Contributed by James May on Apr 5, 2023

Then the next morning he set out once again to go to Jerusalem, about 2 miles away. It was ...read more
