To quote one of His most favorited promises throughout history, Jesus said: “...I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me” (John 14:6). Is it any wonder then that our Savior is referred to in Scripture as the true temple and the true lamb? He makes that clear in one, singular, momentous event: the cross. Tonight is about everything coming together in and through Christ so that we might be reconciled back to God - as He wanted all along.

John 2:19-22

19 Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” 20 The Jews then said, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will you raise it up in three days?” 21 But he was speaking about the temple of his body. 22 When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this, and they believed the Scripture and the word that Jesus had spoken.
