Amen, sister, it must be a good Bible college, Pinehurst. You say some nice Holy Spirit things. ![[thumbsup2]](graemlins/thumbsup2.gif)

These scriptures speak about the restoration of Israel and the rebuilding of the temple, after which Jesus will reign for 1000 years. It also speaks about the new heaven and the new earth as mentioned in John 14:2, formed after the final day of judgment.

King David said, I will build a house for the LORD God of Israel:
1 Chronicles 22
7 And David said to Solomon, My son, as for me, it was in my mind to build a house to the name of the LORD my God.
8 But the word of the LORD came to me, saying, You have shed blood abundantly, and have made great wars: you shall not build a house to my name {snip}.
9 Behold, a son shall be born to you {snip}
10 He shall build a house for my name; and he shall be My son, and I will be his father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever.
11 Now, my son, the LORD be with you and prosper you, and build the house of the LORD your God, as He has said of you.
But the LORD also answered back and said "I also will build him a house":
2 Samuel 7:27
For You, O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, have revealed to your servant {David}, saying, I will build you an house: therefore has your servant {David} found in his heart to pray this prayer to You.
We may build a house to the LORD, but the LORD says He will also build a house for us:
John 14:2
In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
Ephesians 2:21
In whom all the building fitly framed together grows into a holy temple in the Lord.
God bless, BORN AGAIN ![[Cross]](graemlins/cross.gif)
