1Kings 6, the beautiful Temple!

1Ki 6:11-12, THEN THE WORD OF THE LORD CAME TO SOLOMON, saying: “Concerning this temple which you are building, IF YOU WALK IN MY STATUTES, EXECUTE MY JUDGMENTS, KEEP ALL MY COMMANDMENTS, and WALK IN THEM, THEN I WILL PERFORM MY WORD WITH YOU, Which I spoke to your father David.

2Sa 7:13, HE SHALL BUILD A HOUSE FOR MY NAME, AND I WILL ESTABLISH THE THRONE OF HIS KINGDOM FOREVER.

THIS WAS A BEAUTIFUL TEMPLE THAT SOLOMON BUILT FOR THE LORD. COVERED WITH GOLD, TWO 15 FOOT GOLD COVERED CHERUBIM IN THE HOLY OF HOLIES, YET 5 YEARS AFTER THE DEATH OF SOLOMON THE TEMPLE WAS PLUNDERED 1Ki 14:25-27!

Psa 14:2-3, The LORD looks down from heaven upon the children of men, TO SEE IF THERE ARE ANY WHO UNDERSTAND, WHO SEEK GOD. THEY HAVE ALL TURNED ASIDE, THEY HAVE TOGETHER BECOME CORRUPT; THERE IS NONE WHO DOES GOOD, NO, NOT ONE.

We as humans tend to destroy all that is beautiful in the world!  The garden of Eden was removed because of our sins, The temple of God destroyed, and Even the PERFECT SON OF THE LIVING GOD WHO WENT AROUND DOING GOOD, TEACHING TRUTH, AND HEALING THE SICK; HE WAS TORTURED, SPAT UPON, HIS BEARD RIP OFF HIS FACE, AND CRUCIFIED!

Rom 7:24-25, O WRETCHED MAN THAT I AM! WHO WILL DELIVER ME FROM THIS BODY OF DEATH? I THANK GOD—THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD!…
