I have the feeling that Americans too lightly dismiss their importance, and what went on in them; they obviously have meaning in the meanings of the final arrangements in the Kingdom of God. (For example, I'm not certain we can so lightly dismiss the meaning, symbolism, and relevance of the Tabernacle and Temple sacrifices. In Ezekiel, Chapter 40 and later, the Millennial Temple (which I don't believe is the Temple that is being clamored for by some for in present day Israel) there are three of the sacrifices reinstated. These sacrifices cannot be for the purposes of sanctification and justification, as those are settled matters (John 19:30, Philippians 1:6.) Why are they re-instituted? We'll know eventually, but apparently not now. Yet, when I have tried to study the sacrifices, the Church writers flail as much as I do.<br /><br />It is interesting to me that Dr. McGee tells the account of his sitting down and writing a detailed exposition on the Tabernacle. It all fit. But, he says that when he tried to do the same with the Temple, he had to give up the project because of the lack of information. <br /><br />Thank you for the column today. It is a blessing. bloggerjimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13280219040560653721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2736720231951988221.post-40221448969885510262016-11-07T16:44:09.333-05:002016-11-07T16:44:09.333-05:00I love pillars and columns, too.

I prefer the columns themselves to be smooth, not fluted, and I'd rather see simple ornamentation on the capitals, like the doric (my favorite)... though I also like the ionic style to a lesser extent. I just love clean, uncluttered lines. So corinthian columns, forget it. LOL!<br /><br />I love beautiful church architecture, irrespective of whether or not it's a true Bible believing assembly's gathering place. Like you said, it's a shame, though, when the worship offered isn't as it ought to be. <br /><br />The description in Scripture of the temple is amazing, though admittedly I never noticed the two named columns. You're always good at picking up small details like that. I agree, it is a treasure to find these things, and study them.<br /><br />Of course nothing compares to the true Temple (Revelation 21:22). It is a blessing to belong to Him.<br /><br />-CarolynAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
