The River That Flowed From The Temple In Jerusalam

Contributed by Revd. Martin Dale on Mar 27, 2020

In Ezekiel 47, The prophet receives a vision of the River flowing from the Temple and he is invited to cross the River at various crossing. What does each crossing signify.

Ezekiel 47: 1-12 I love this passage of Scripture, not least because in Ezekiel’s time there was no river in the City of Jerusalem and so it would be impossible for a river to flow from the Temple. You may well say to me, not so. And I will concede that in 2011, while Jerusalem was in the ...read more

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Sep 28, 2023

Matthew 21 and the parable of the two sons, and tenants in the vineyard are really about "Yahweh" coming to His temple, His dwelling place. The Pharisees rejected His Messiahship and thus they ask: "By what authority...." Conclusion: Who do you say Jesus is?

Jesus' Last Visit To The Temple

Contributed by James May on Apr 5, 2023

There is no doubt that Jesus' last temple visit was less than positive. It had become a den of thieves. However after he cleansed that temple it once again became a House of Prayer.

After the Triumphal Entry of Jesus through the Eastern Gate, the scripture records that he then left the city of Jerusalem and went to stay the night at the home of his friends, Mary, Martha and Lazarus. Then the next morning he set out once again to go to Jerusalem, about 2 miles away. It was ...read more

Repent - The First Message Of Lord Jesus Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jun 3, 2021

In this period of 400 years when the Lord chose to remain silent, everything in the temple continued as it always had. The rituals of worship, sacrifices, feasts and festivals were carried out with regularity, but the dismal part was that the Lord was not in it. Why?

Repent - The first message of Lord Jesus Matthew 3:1-2:“In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judea, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” (RSV) Matthew 4:17: “From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” ...read more

We Are God’s Temple

Contributed by Craig Condon on Oct 5, 2015

The key to God’s temple is our faith. It keeps us close to God because the Holy Spirit will live in us just like God lived in the temple in ancient Israel. The Holy Spirit assures us that in our relationship with Jesus we can do what he did.

The passage from 1 Corinthians 3:10-11, 16-23 is a continuation of Paul’s discussion with the church at Corinth, but the focus is now on the necessity of unity among believers.
