Two silver trumpets of Yom Teruah and the Body of Messiah

Richard Agee
Play

Apostle Paul tells us that we are to be ready to preach “in season” (2nd Tim. 4:1-2), translated from kairos, the Greek word used for the appointed times of God. Because this is the “season” of Yom Teruah (Num. 29:1), this is the focus of today’s talk. We will get to hear the sound of the trumpet if we respond to the Messiah’s call of salvation first. The blowing of the trumpets gives us an idea of what God has in mind. We might seem unimportant to those in the world but God has a job for all of us to do. [read more]

1st Kings 6:1-14: Design of Solomon’s temple mirrors foundation for believers

Daniel Agee
Play

The temple of King Shlomo (Solomon) is the prototype of the temple in Ezekiel and the temple apostle Yokhanan (John) sees in Revelation as well. These components were not put in by Shlomo’s own choice. They were designed and selected by God ahead of time because they mean something to God. In a sense, the Temple is us. Each physical component has a spiritual component. [read more]

Ingathering of the seventh month — Prelude to being at one and dwelling with God

Play

The fall appointed times of God are called the “feasts of ingathering” and are associated with the apocalyptic Day of the LORD. What are the lessons of these festivals that point toward our preparation for what Messiah is going to do? In part two of a discussion of the seventh month of God’s calendar, Richard looks into the parallel between the construction of Solomon’s Temple in time for one Sukkot (Tabernacles) and the preparation of God’s people for the final Sukkot. Like the stones for the first temple that were cut to size elsewhere then moved into location, the people of God will be “trimmed” to the right “size” before being moved to the final site of the LORD’s dwelling place on Earth.
