Book Description
AN EXPLOSIVE AND DEFINITIVE NEW LOOK AT THE QUESTION OF EXACTLY WHERE THE TEMPLE IN JERUSALEM SHOULD BE REBUILT Endorsed by NEW YORK TIMES Bestselling Authors, JOSH D. MCDOWELL, JOEL RICHARDSON, and WILLIAM J. FEDERER With peace in the Middle East finally on the horizon, could it now be time to begin rebuilding the Jewish temple? Does your heart yearn to see prophecy fulfilled and the temple rebuilt? Is it possible to know for sure where the temple was located so that it can be? Are you willing to examine the case for the temple location, based on a thorough review of biblical and historical testimony, archaeological evidence, and logical inference and deduction? If so, then you can know with certainty where it was formerly located and that rebuilding the temple is now possible! In -The Temple Revealed you will: - discover biblical prophecies that have been unknowingly fulfilled right before our eyes; - unravel more than three thousand years of Temple Mount history; - explore the latest archaeological findings; - realize the prophetic and spiritual significance of the temple and why it's so important; - see exactly where the temple actually sat almost two thousand years ago; - understand a plan for how the temple could be rebuilt peacefully in our day; and much more . . . Prepare to be overwhelmed by the evidence that the temple location has been hiding in plain sight . . . Are you ready to engage in one of the most significant debates regarding Jerusalem? The issue revolves around the rebuilding of the Jewish temple, which has lain in ruins since AD 70 and which many would say is the next prophetic piece in Israel's restoration. Of course, that necessitates determining precisely where it should be located when it is rebuilt. In the pages of The Temple Revealed, the entire case is laid out, with the evidence to prove, beyond a reasonable doubt, that the famed Golden Gate is the true eastern gate of the First and Second Temples and marks the east-west line of where the temple should be rebuilt. It is also shown that the Dome of the Spirits covers the remains of the threshing floor of Araunah, which gives us the precise location of the Holy of Holies of the temple. Using these two landmarks, which are validated using historic testimonies, recent and not-so-recent archaeological finds, logical deduction, and God's Word, we can now confidently proclaim the correct location to begin rebuilding the temple. Answering anything definitively about Jerusalem is like trying to untangle a knotted fishing line, but with a little patience and persistence, we can separate a lot of fact from fiction. Dr. Widener starts with the accounts recorded in the Bible and then uses historic testimony and archaeological evidence to discover the true location of the Jewish temple. Perhaps now, after almost two thousand years, the temple can be rebuilt, peacefully, in its proper location in the northern portion of the Temple Mount, which is free and clear of any obstructions that might otherwise prevent its immediate construction. Come embark on a journey to learn how close we really are to making history and seeing the fulfillment of God's prophetic Word!

Languages : en
Pages : 239
Book Description
Central to God’s character is the quality of holiness. Yet, even so, most people are hard-pressed to define what God’s holiness precisely is. Many preachers today avoid the topic altogether because people today don’t quite know what to do with words like “awe” or “fear.” R. C. Sproul, in this classic work, puts the holiness of God in its proper and central place in the Christian life. He paints an awe-inspiring vision of God that encourages Christian to become holy just as God is holy. Once you encounter the holiness of God, your life will never be the same.

Kabbalistic Teachings of the Female Prophets
Author: J. Zohara Meyerhoff Hieronimus
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1594777268
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 333
Book Description
The spiritual teachings of Israel’s biblical prophetesses from a kabbalistic perspective • Explores the lives and symbolic significance of seven female prophets: Sarah, Miriam, Devorah, Chanah, Avigail, Chuldah, and Esther • Uses the gematria of Jewish metaphysics to demonstrate that prophecy is a mystical initiatory path by which Divine Will is made known, not only a tool for telling the future • Presents practical applications of kabbalistic teachings for spiritual development The seven prophetesses of Israel--Sarah, Miriam, Devorah, Chanah, Avigail, Chuldah, and Esther--lived between 1800 and 350 BCE. Their combined lives reflect a kabbalistic path of spiritual evolution that is as pertinent to our lives today as it was for the biblical communities in which they lived. From her studies of the Torah and classical gematria, Zohara Hieronimus shows that each prophetess is linked to a Sefirah on the kabbalistic Tree of Life: from creation (Sarah) through learning correct moral action (Devorah) to the promise of redemption and ultimately resurrection (Esther). Using the stories of their lives and teachings, Hieronimus reveals the relationship of each prophetess to the seven days of the week, the seven sacred species of Israel, the human body, and Jewish holidays and rituals. This book presents the kabbalistic teachings of these holy women and what they reveal about the initiatory path of individual development and redemption. The seven prophetesses show that every person has a part to play in the repair of the world, and Hieronimus gives a practical set of maps and spiritual guidelines for that journey.

Temple Theology

Book Description
Margaret Barker believes that Christianity developed so quickly because it was a return to far older faith—far older than the Greek culture that is long-held to have influenced Christianity. Temple Theology explains that the preaching of the gospel and the early Christian faith grew out of the centuries' old Hebrew longing for God's original Temple.
