It All Belongs to Him — Part One
The task of building the Jerusalem temple was great, and King David gave wholeheartedly and generously of his wealth to provide for it. As Alistair Begg reminds us, however, the temple owed its greatness to the fact that it was not for man but for God. Furthermore, in redemptive history, this temple would point to the greater temple God has built: His church. Today, God manifests His presence not in a particular place but in a particular people. This reality should reorient how we view everything.
