Then & Now
Then… Special & Spectacular
Now… Regular & Significant
In the Old Testament there are many accounts of how God made his presence known to his people.
He spoke from burning bushes, mountain tops and directly to His leaders. The tabernacle and then the temple were the place where God “met” his people, which should have extended to the west of the world.
In our New Testament times God has poured His Spirit into the very lives of His people. When we receive Christ, we receive His Spirit personally. He travels with us wherever we go.
Therefore we literally become God’s temple. We are the place where people see, hear and encounter God. How we live vitally affects how much those around us encounter God each day.
