    Bible Study Where Was The Jewish Temple Located?

    All of the constructions of the Temple from Solomon to Herod had to be either in exactly the same place, or very nearby each other, as the entire Temple Mount is only about 36 acres. Even if the Temples were actually outside what is the Temple Mount in the City of David, they would still have...

    Bible Study Where Was The Jewish Temple Located?

    The traditional thinking is that the first and second Jewish Temples where located on what today is called the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. One problem for me is that Jesus clearly said the Temple would be completely destroyed, not one stone left upon another: Mark 13:1-2 1And as he went out of...

    Bible Study the resurrection

    Jesus' resurrection is the central element of our Christian faith. Without the redemptive nature of the crucifixion, death, and resurrection of Jesus, our faith would be worthless. 1 Corinthians 15:12-19 12 Now if Christ is proclaimed as raised from the dead, how can some of you say there is...

    Silence

    I haven't seen the Martin Scorsese movie that came out this year, but I did read the book written by Shusaku Endo. It was one of the best Christian books I've read in years, and very well written in general. For those who have read the book or seen the movies, the subject is God's silence...

    Surgery again

    Pizza, I've been following your progress online here and on FB. I pray the pain quickly fades now, and that the surgery is a success. I've considered surgery myself. I use a CPAP, and it works pretty well most of the time, but I HATE using it.

    Why the whole family?

    In the Old Testament, the Hebrew writings, we see where God is calling His people, the nation, to righteousness. The sins and punishments of individuals, and even individual families, is understood in how it effects the nation. It's not that individuals are unimportant, but God's concern is...
