But I mean, honestly, you think about the emphasis of the last two years of this podcast has been really from the scripture that the God's not in the building. I mean, he is in the building because we're in the building, but he doesn't live in the temples built by man's hand.

Well, you know, it's funny about that. In 1 Kings 8, when he dedicates the temple that God had given the instructions to build, at the end of it, he asked this question, at the end of all that, Solomon says, surely, and I'm paraphrasing here because I don't have it in front of me, but something to the effect of, surely God does not live in a house made by me.

And it wasn't a, like he's like pointing out the obvious, like even in the dedication of the temple after Solomon built it, he recognized that, the ridiculous nature, the God who made everything is gonna dwell in a house made by man? I don't think so. And surely this house won't contain you. And it was, that nugget right there was the same message that Jesus gave before his crucifixion.

He said, if you destroy this temple, I will rebuild it in three days, talking about his body. And it's the same, and they got him killed, by the way. It's the same message that Stephen gave right before he was martyred, when Stephen said, God does not live in temples built by man's hands, and he was killed for it. Acts chapter 7. Acts 7. John 2 was the first one.

Yeah, it's so funny. I was thinking about this as we were singing some songs at church on Sunday, and I thought, man, how many songs have I sung over the years that actually cultivate an imagination for the complete opposite of what we're talking about? I was thinking that one song that it talks about heaven, This world is not my home, I'm just a passing through.
