Creation, Temple, and the Beatific Vision
Manage episode 462796329 series 3616120
What if the sacred spaces of the Bible could transform your understanding of worship and God’s presence?
In this episode of PREPPED, join Dr. James Spencer on a remarkable journey from the Garden of Eden to the New Jerusalem, uncovering the deep symbolism and spiritual significance of sacred spaces throughout the Scriptures. Together, we’ll explore the imagery of cherubim, priestly language, and the themes of holiness woven throughout the Bible.
Discover how Christ redefined sacrifice and worship, as we connect Old Testament temple imagery to New Testament teachings. Drawing inspiration from biblical scholar Greg Beal, we’ll reflect on God’s enduring desire to dwell with His people, seen in the decree of Cyrus and the Great Commission, offering us a glimpse into the eternal promise of His presence.
This discussion seeks not only inform, but to inspire you to deepen your connection with God’s presence today by inviting you to revisit these themes and engage with the rich symbolism of sacred spaces in your own spiritual life.
