“With all the great structures and marvelous sights of the city, there does seem to be one surprising omission, surprising at first, that is. In the old Jerusalem, one great building had dominated both the landscape and the life of the city. Set high on the hill of Zion was the beautiful Temple of God. There served the priests and there were brought the sacrifices and offerings of the people. Most important of all, it was there where God met with His people. But now, in the new Jerusalem, God dwells with His people! The Lamb of God, who is the one sacrifice for sins forever, reigns there on His throne, and every redeemed saint in a king and priest unto God. There is no longer need for a temple structure, and one would search the huge city in vain for such a building. Nevertheless, there is a temple there- the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb!”
