Summary
"In antiquity a religion without a temple was unheard of. Christianity has no earthly temple, yet had a strong temple theology. Christianity chose to interpret the very basis of its theology with a process that it opted to abandon!" Whatever happened to the temple? In this unique collection of essays, the writers direct our attention to where the early Christians looked to the reality of the sanctuary in heaven. An obvious and often overlooked theme endemic to both testaments, it has profound ramifications for faithful Christian theology today. --
