Temples now and then – This towering edifice of shining glass – inspired by Mark 13:1-8
1 This towering edifice of shining glass which speaks of power, of status and of class. will one day fall, a glittering shower of shards, will flutter like the children's house of cards.
2 These temples of our vanity and pride like expectations of the crucified will lie in dust and rubble that we raze, not like the Christ who, later, God might raise.
3 We need to hear that sharp prophetic cry reminding of the ones we would deny. Self-righteous hypocrites will meet their end. Neglected people find in Christ a friend.
