All Will Be Thrown Down
"All Will Be Thrown Down," explores Jesus' teaching on the destruction of the temple (Luke 21:5-19). Jesus knew that the temple's destruction would not mean the end of God's creation; it would not mean the end of salvation. He urged people to bear suffering with hope and patience. His lesson was that all of us suffer, and all of us go through destruction and tearing down. All of us even go through death, but that is not the end. He died himself, but it was not the end. He was resurrected, and God's creative power began again.This sermon was preached on the Day1 radio program.
