The true temple has been under construction for more than two thousand years! It began when the foundation stone was laid through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ – who is also called the Chief Cornerstone!
Zechariah 6:12 AMP
“And say to him, Thus says the Lord of hosts: [You, Joshua] behold (look at, keep in sight, watch) the Man [the Messiah] whose name is the Branch, for He shall grow up in His place and He shall build the [true] temple of the Lord.”
The true temple does not consist of bricks and mortar, timber, or any other natural building material. The true temple is made up of lives. Precious people connected and united together through faith in Christ, that is the true temple. Jesus Christ is building His temple, and He’s doing it one individual at a time. To be a part of this spiritual house is a blessing beyond compare.
Every Christian is part of something so much greater than mere religion. We are not propagating an earth-o-centric cause, it is something that Jesus Himself founded and continues to build to this day. It is a spiritual house, an eternal temple, something precious and it will endure forever!
Jesus is the Chief Cornerstone for those of us who embrace His cause and join His eternal building project. He, however, can quickly become the Stone which the builders rejected if we get our eyes of the true temple and on to the temporal. (Matthew 21:42).
Isn’t it an honor to be a part of the true temple!? If you’re not in, you’re missing everything!
