2224 | Temple and No Temple? | Rev 21:22 | Emmaus | 62260 | ||
Mommapps, Perhaps if we look at it this way: Creation is macrocosim of the Jerusalem Temple. The Garden of Eden and Tabernacle of Moses is a smaller scale version of the same, as the Temple in Jerusalem is a mircosim of the world. They are all "temples' erected by God or upon His command as places of worship for his royal priestly people to worship Him. Ultimately His people are incorporated into the Son we become the temple / temples of the Holy Spirit. The Church (the mystical body of Christ) is portrayed as glorified as it descends from the heavens in Revelation 21. There is a lot written on this subject of the symbolism of the various temples. What I have indicated above is a rather gross simplification. If you would like some references to books I will give you some titles. Emmaus |

Betterment, It is that same tree of life in the Garden, which man lost the right to eat from after the fall when he was cast out of the Garden. Now that Christ has redeemed us we may again eat of that tree and no longer suffer sickness and death. See Rev 2:7 along with Rev 22:2, 14, 19 and also Ezekiel 47:1-12 and his vison of the temple, especially verse 12. Emmaus |

2226 | regarding the apocrypha? | Rev 22:18 | Emmaus | 70080 | ||
miovangogh, The early church followe the Sepyuagint canon of the Greek translation of the Old Testament which in common used among all non Hebrew speaking Jews at the time of Christ. The Hebrew canon was not finalized by the Jews until about 100 years after Christ's crucifixion and resurrection. Later the Protestant Reformers chose for a variety of reasons to go with the Hebrew canon. For more on this see http://www.catholic.com/library/Old_Testament_Canon.asp Enmmaus |

2228 | Justify Leviticus 20:13 | Rev 22:19 | Emmaus | 60284 | ||
"modern Christians" who approve immoral behavior which is deadly in and of itself to the people who engage in such behavior are being neither charitable nor truely Christian. Christians do not "justify" Leviticus 20:13 since they do not live under nor enforce the Mosaic or Levitical law. But the New Covenant affirms the underlying principle that the wages of sin (not just homosexuality) is death. "because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever! Amen. For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. Their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural, and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in their own persons the due penalty for their error. And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a base mind and to improper conduct. They were filled with all manner of wickedness, evil, covetousness, malice. Full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malignity, they are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Though they know God's decree that those who do such things deserve to die, they not only do them but approve those who practice them. "Therefore you have no excuse, O man, whoever you are, when you judge another; for in passing judgment upon him you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, are doing the very same things. We know that the judgment of God rightly falls upon those who do such things. Do you suppose, O man, that when you judge those who do such things and yet do them yourself, you will escape the judgment of God? Or do you presume upon the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience? Do you not know that God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance? But by your hard and impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath when God's righteous judgment will be revealed. For he will render to every man according to his works:to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life; but for those who are factious and do not obey the truth, but obey wickedness, there will be wrath and fury. There will be tribulation and distress for every human being who does evil, the Jew first and also the Greek, but glory and honor and peace for every one who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek. For God shows no partiality." Romans 1:25 - 2:11 Emmaus |
