It Happened at the Temple - Part 3
The Glory Departs
It Happened at the Temple - Pt 3 - The Temple was always just a building. God’s presence was what made it important. But God’s people thought the building itself was what gave them power. They assumed that because God made His home in Jerusalem, they would always be safe, and didn’t need to repent. Jeremiah and the other prophets tried in vain to help them see that making a mockery of God’s grace has consequences.

The Sermon on the Mount is often acclaimed (even by non-Christians) as the greatest moral teaching ever presented. It dares us to dream of the world-changing things that could happen if we began to walk like Him.
If we are the Temple where redemption happens, what is our plan to draw people to Him? The answer is to relearn an ancient, almost forgotten practice: Hospitality. In a time when loneliness is an epidemic, when few people know their neighbors, something as simple as a meal together can be the starting place for something beautiful to happen.
