The Temple of God and the Anticipation of Advent

From Genesis to Revelation, the temple is key to comprehending the biblical message of how humanity can find peace with God and with one another. The Bible teaches that God created the world so that he could fill it with his presence and joy. Israel’s temple anticipates the fulfillment of that hope as God’s glory took up residence there. But in order for that hope to be fully realized, Israel’s prophets spoke of the need for a much greater temple, a temple which has finally arrived with the advent of Jesus.
