Mt. Olive Baptist Church | 8/28/22
Mark 11:15-19
What Is A Temple?
1. A place where God’s presence is manifested
2. A place of holiness where sin is cleansed
The temple was manifested ever since the beginning with the altar and then the tabernacle.
Jesus and Paul tell us that the temple will be rebuilt in the future.
Animal sacrifices in the future temple will be looking back on what Christ did.
Baptism and the Lord’s Supper are things we do today looking back as an act of worship.
If the temple was going to be done away with, then Jesus was wasting His time here cleansing it.
