THEY HEARD TEMPLE BUT HE MEANT HIS BODY

(Jhn. 2:18-22; 1 Cor. 6:19-20)

MEMORY VERSE: "Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up" (Jhn 2:19 KJV).

A song I heard says, "God who is so big as to have the earth as his footstool lives in us". Divinity lives in us. It is a blissful, mind-blowing reality; a great privilege to host the very God of the universe!

Our bodies are temples. When Jesus referred to a temple that, if destroyed, will be raised in three days, his disciples didn't understand he meant his body. They found it difficult to grab the truths he was trying to pass accross because he spoke most times in parables and some of his utterances were masked in expressions that couldn't be discerned logically.

Even today, we may miss out on the underlying truths in the word of God if we rely on studying and interpreting it logically.

They destroyed his body- his temple. But in three days, he arose. Yes! he arose. Logic cannot reconcile how a man who has been dead for three days can arise. Athiest may laugh at us for believing something that seem stupid. But He arose!

Although science and philosophy might find explanations to counter the possibility of such a thing ever happening, we will never keep quiet about a Savior who died and arose. His temple was destroyed by men, but God raised him up from the dead.

Believers in Jesus Christ now have eternal life; though we die physically, we will arise on his return at the Resurrection - just like He also arose from the dead.

PRAYER: Thank you Jesus for dying for me in faith that the Father will raise you up.
