This post contains Pastor Ramsey’s sermon on the temple; it is part two of a three-part series on Israel and the Church. Scriptures from the Old and New Testaments were used to explain God’s covenantal goals and purposes; the role of the temple is explained in terms of how it facilitated the accomplishment of God’s goals. Furthermore, the real temple is identified via many scriptures. It is not what the dispensationalists have taught; or what the typical prophecy buff anticipates.
