What is Christianity?

Christianity is about God reaching out his hand in friendship to mankind. Christians believe that the whole world and everything in it was created by God. God is a personal being, a living God who is three, yet one: Father, Son and Spirit, just as we human beings have body, mind and soul! (see the Trinity).

The Bible says God created people in his image, to love him. Yet every person has rebelled against God and sinned. Yet instead of turning his back on us, God became a man, Jesus, who most scholars believe was born about the year 4 BC and lived among us. He taught a message of love throughout Palestine but public opinion turned against him and he was executed as a young man.

He died because of us - the death that we should have died. He was crucified on a cross, but he rose from the dead, and now calls us to trust him, to love him and to repent of our rebellion. If we do this, then we our relationship with God becomes restored and we will live forever with God.

Many non-Christians may think that being a Christian is about belonging to a particular church or following a certain set of rule. Most Christians however would agree that at its root, being a Christian means to be in a living relationship with Jesus.

Today we are concluding our comments on the Temple.

In the front, on the east, was a porch the width of the house. On the porch were two pillars of brass, each about six feet in diameter and 35 feet high, one on either side. Against the wall of the Temple, on the north, south, and west sides, were three stories of side chambers for the priests.

In front of the Temple was the Brazen Altar of Burnt Offering, believed to have stood on the rock where Abraham offered Isaac--now called the Dome of the Rock, directly under the center of the present Mohammedan Mosque of Omar. Nearby, to the south, stood the great Brazen Laver, set on twelve brazen oxen, to hold water for the priests to wash in. There were also ten smaller portable lavers, five on the north side and five on the south side, for water for the sacrifices.

The Temple was surrounded by two courts--an "inner court" and a "great court." Their size is not known. The great court may have included the palace buildings.

The Temple was built by 30,000 Israelites and 150,000 Canaanites. It took seven years to build. Every part was prepared at a distance from the site and put in place without sound of hammer or any tool.

The glory of Solomon's Temple was short lived. It was plundered within five years after Solomon's death, and destroyed by the Babylonians in 586 b.c.
