Glory Connection — The Temple

What was created first, the world or the Temple?  Most of you would respond with, the world.  Wrong answer! :) According to Pirkei Avot (Ethics of the Fathers), “Seven things were created before the world was created. They are: The Torah, Gehinnom, the Garden of Eden, the Throne of Glory, the Temple, Repentance, and the Name of the Messiah.” The Temple is your glory connection on earth. Exodus 25:8 (RSV) And let them make me a sanctuary, that I may dwell in their midst. God desires that His glory dwells among you.  Your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who dwells in you.  I often hear people ask, “Lord, give me more of you.”  I think this is the wrong question to ask.  Instead, people should ask, “Lord, have more of me.” "19 Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, which you have from God? You are not your own; 20 you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body." (1 Corinthians 6:19-20 RSV) The primary purpose of the Temple is to facilitate the revelation of God’s Presence into your life.  Your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit.
