It Happened at the Temple - Part 5
The Greater Glory
It Happened at the Temple - Pt 5 - Jesus was confronted in the Temple during the Feast of Dedication (Hanukkah). We’ll look at the story of the Temple from the time of its rebuilding to the time of Jesus. And we’ll look at His relationship to the Temple, including the time His parents found Him there at age 12. As His words in John 10 reveal, He had come to be the new and greater Temple (also see Mt 12:6). Do you come to 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.
When our bond with God was severed by our sin, He didn’t give up on us. He made a second Eden, a place for us to meet with Him and be redeemed. That place was the Temple, and the events that happened there teach us about a God who is mighty to save, the cost of our sin, and His plans for us.
