… for 2, 6 through 9, for thus says the Lord of hosts, once more, it is a little while, I will shake heaven and earth, the sea and dry land, and I will shake all nations, and they shall come to the desire of all nations. That's so powerful. I will shake all nations and they shall come to the desire of all nations. Really quickly, that is the Lord saying, even if they do not know what they desire, I'm it. even if they do not know what they hunger and thirst for, it's me. Oh, I cannot wait to get into this. It says, I will shake all nations. I will shake all nations. And then it says, and they will come to the desire of all nations. I'm so tempted to just do it right here and now. And I will fill this temple with glory, says the Lord of hosts. The silver is mine and the gold is mine, says the Lord of hosts. Right here, though. …
Thus far, the blessed word of God. Today, I want you to pray with me on the sermon subject, A Reason to Rebuild. A Reason to Rebuild. One of the great challenges of faith is to be able to embrace a God who will allow our dreams to come to ruin. The honest believer can admit that it's sometimes frustrating to trust in a God who will let everything crumble. God, I know you love me and I know your presence is here with me, But why would you allow everything around me to fall apart? Beloved, might I suggest that we are in relationship with a God who believes in our ability to start over. The God of the resurrected Christ does not acknowledge the defeats that we so often lament. God believes your career can start over. God believes you can rebuild your reputation from the ground up. God believes that you can salvage the thing that everybody else told you to throw away. And whether you feel it or not, God is confident that you can get back up and dust yourself off. …
AT THE METROPOLITAN TABERNACLE, NEWINGTON, ON THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST 25, 1870. "And I will sialee all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, says the Lord of Hosts." Haggai 2:7. THE second Temple was never intended to be as magnificent as the first. The first was to be the embodiment of the full glory of the dispensation of symbols and types—and was soon to pass away. This comparative feebleness had been proved by the idolatry and apostasy of the people, Israel. And when they returned to Jerusalem they were to have a structure that would be sufficient for the purposes of their worship, but they were not again to be indulged with the splendors of the former house which God had erected by the hand of Solomon. Had it been God's Providence that a Temple equally magnificent as the first should be erected, it might have been very readily accomplished. Cyrus appears to have been obedient to the Divine Will and to have been a great friend of the Jews, but he expressly, by edict, diminished the length of the walls and gave express command that the walls should never be erected as high as before. We have also evidence that a lile decree was made by Darius, an equally great friend of the Jews, who could, with the lifting of his finger, have outdone the glory of Solomon's Temple! But in God's Providence it was not arranged that it should be so and, though Herod, not a Jew, and only a Jew by religious pretense to suit his own particular purpose, lavished a good deal of treasure upon the second Temple for the pleasure of the nation he ruled, and to gain some favor from them, yet he rather profaned than adorned the Temple, since he did not follow the prescribed architecture by which it ought to have been built, and he had not the Divine Approval upon his labors. No Prophet ever commanded, and no Prophet ever sanctioned the labors of such a horrible wretch as that Herod! The reason seems to me to be this—in the second Temple, during the time it should stand, the dispensation of Christ was softly melted into the light of spiritual Truth. The outward worship was to cease there. It seems right that it should cease in a Temple that had not the external glory of the first. God intended there to light up the first beams of the spiritual splendor of the second Temple, namely, His true Temple, the Church, and he would put a sign of decay on the outward and visible in the Temple of the first. Yet He declares by His servant, Haggai, that the glory of the second Temple should be greater than the first. It certainly was not so as in respect of gold, or silver, or size, or excellence of architecture—and yet it truly was so, for the Glory of the Presence of Christ was greater than all the glory of the old Temple's wealth! And the glory of having the Gospel preached in it, the glory of having the Gospel miracles worked in its porches by the Apostles and by the Master was far greater than any hecatombs of bullocks and he-goats—the glory of being, as it were, the cradle of the Christian Church—the nest out of which should fly the messengers of peace, who, lile doves, should bear the olive branch throughout the world. I tale it that the decadence of the old system of symbols was a most fitting preparation for the incoming of the system of Grace and Truth in the Person of Jesus Christ! And the second Temple has this glory which excels—that while the first was the glory of the moon in all its splendor, the second is the moon going down—the sun is rising beyond her, gilding the horizon with the first beams at the morning! …
