[Adam | Faithful Messenger @Adam_FaithfulM]

In His final hours on the cross, Jesus spoke seven times.

Seven short sentences, gathered from all four Gospels.

They are the last words of a dying man, but they are unlike any last words ever spoken.

In them you find forgiveness, agony, tenderness, triumph, and surrender.

Here's each of the seven, and what each one actually means. 🧵

[PaulsCorner-VerseQuest @TNTJohn1717]

🚨‼️This chart breaks down why Matthew 1:1 is not just a genealogy, but a royal legal announcement that Jesus Christ is the promised Seed, the Son of Abraham, and the rightful Son of David. It shows how the genealogy connects Christ to the covenant promises, David’s throne, Israel’s history, and the long spiritual war against the promised Seed. Every attack failed, every generation was preserved, and the King still came exactly as God said He would.

How Many Jewish Temples Does the Bible Actually Describe?

Most Christians can name two Jewish temples.

Some know there will be a future temple.

But few realize the Bible tells one remarkable Temple story that stretches from Eden to the New Jerusalem.

The Temple is more than a building.

It is the story of God's desire to dwell with His people.

From Genesis to Revelation, Scripture reveals one breathtaking pattern: heaven reaching toward earth.

🌿 It Begins in a Garden

Before there was a temple, there was Eden.

God walked with Adam and Eve in perfect fellowship (Gen. 3:8). There was no veil, no priesthood, no sacrifices. Heaven and earth met in God's presence.

Sin changed everything.

Humanity was driven east from the garden (Gen. 3:24), and access to God's presence was lost.

The rest of the Bible is the story of God restoring that fellowship.

⛺ The Tabernacle

God's first sanctuary was portable.

"Then have them make a sanctuary for Me, and I will dwell among them." (Ex. 25:8)

The Tabernacle became the meeting place between a holy God and His covenant people.

🏛️ The First Temple: Solomon's Temple

Solomon built Israel's first Temple, and the glory of the LORD filled it so completely that the priests could not continue ministering (1 Kings 8:10–11).

But Israel's persistent rebellion had devastating consequences.

In one of the Bible's most sobering scenes, Ezekiel watched the Shekinah Glory depart the Temple and move eastward because of the nation's sin (Ezek. 10–11).

Soon afterward, Babylon destroyed the Temple in 586 BC.

🏛️ The Second Temple

After the exile, Zerubbabel rebuilt the Temple (Ezra 6), and centuries later Herod greatly expanded it.

This was the Temple the Messiah entered.

Malachi foretold it:

"The Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to His temple." (Mal. 3:1)

Jesus taught there, cleansed it, and declared Himself greater than the Temple itself (John 2:19-21).

Yet He also predicted its destruction.

In AD 70, His words were fulfilled.

🏛️ The Third Temple (The Tribulation Temple)

Many assume the Temple story ends there.

Scripture says otherwise.

Christians are not waiting for a Third Temple because our redemption is complete in Christ alone.

But because we believe biblical prophecy, we recognize that another Temple is foretold before Messiah establishes His Kingdom.

Remarkably, four different biblical writers describe it.

📖 Daniel foretold sacrifices being stopped midway through the seventieth week (Dan. 9:27).

📖 Jesus pointed His disciples to Daniel's "abomination of desolation" standing in the holy place (Matt. 24:15).

📖 Paul wrote that the man of lawlessness will take his seat "in God's temple, proclaiming himself to be God" (2 Thess. 2:3–4).

📖 John was told to measure the Temple during the Tribulation (Rev. 11:1–2).

Four authors.

Four witnesses.

One future Temple.

This Temple becomes the stage for humanity's greatest act of rebellion as the Antichrist exalts himself in the very place designed for the worship of God.

👑 The Fourth Temple (The Millennial Temple)

The Fourth Temple is entirely different.

Many Christians unintentionally conflate it with the Third Temple, but Scripture presents them as distinct.

The Third Temple is desecrated by the Antichrist.

The Fourth Temple is filled with the glory of the returning King.

Ezekiel devotes nine entire chapters (Ezekiel 40–48) to describing this future Temple.

Its dimensions match no previous Temple.

Its chambers, gates, priestly duties, tribal boundaries, and land allotments are described with extraordinary precision.

As Bible scholar Arnold Fruchtenbaum has observed, such detailed architectural and geographical descriptions naturally point to a literal Temple in the Messianic Kingdom rather than a purely symbolic picture.

Then comes one of Scripture's most beautiful reversals.

The glory that departed eastward in Ezekiel 10–11 returns from the east to fill the Temple forever (Ezek. 43:1–5).

Afterward, the eastern gate is shut because the LORD Himself has entered through it (Ezek. 44:1–2).

Exile gives way to restoration.

A river flows from beneath the Temple, bringing life wherever it goes, even transforming the Dead Sea (Ezek. 47:1–12).

Isaiah foresaw the nations streaming to Zion to learn the Lord's ways (Isa. 2:2–4).

Zechariah declared that the nations will come annually to worship the King in Jerusalem (Zech. 14:16).

The psalmist proclaimed:

"The LORD has chosen Zion... 'This is My resting place forever.'" (Ps. 132:13–14)

The Third Temple anticipates judgment.

The Fourth Temple celebrates the reign of Messiah.

🌊 One Story

Notice the remarkable progression.

• Eden: God walks with humanity.

• Tabernacle: God dwells among Israel.

• Solomon's Temple: The Shekinah Glory fills the house.

• Ezekiel: The Glory departs eastward.

• The Second Temple: Messiah comes to His Temple.

• The Third Temple: The Antichrist exalts himself.

• The Fourth Temple: God's Glory returns from the east.

• New Jerusalem: God dwells forever with His redeemed people.

The Bible is telling one magnificent story.

✨ Then Comes the Greatest Surprise

The story does not end with a bigger Temple.

It ends with no Temple at all.

"Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man." (Rev. 21:3)

"And I saw no temple in the city, because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple." (Rev. 21:22)

The Temple was never ultimately about stone.

It was about God's presence.

The meeting place of heaven and earth.

The Bible begins with humanity losing God's presence in a garden.

It ends with redeemed humanity enjoying His presence forever in the New Jerusalem.

From Eden to eternity, the Temple story is ultimately the story of redemption itself.

What happens when you die:

They divide up your shit.

They summarize your life in 500-1000 words.

People who knew you less say sorry to people who knew you more.

Everyone eats, drives home, and wakes up the next day and goes to work.

Whatever you’re worried about won’t be in those 500 words.

You can dare greatly or not at all, but you’re gonna die either way.

Might as well squeeze every motherfucking drop out.

[Jeremiah Knight @iamrjknight]

A man can sit in church for years and still never know the Lord.

He can hear sermons, sing hymns, attend meetings, learn Christian language, quote verses, defend doctrine, serve in ministries, and still remain a stranger to the new birth. Church attendance can surround a man with truth, but it cannot raise a dead soul to life. Only God can do that.

“Unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God” (John 3:3).

This is one of the most terrifying realities in the visible church. Many have become comfortable around holy things without being made holy by God. They are familiar with sermons but unfamiliar with repentance. They know the sound of prayer but not the poverty of spirit. They speak of Christ but do not bow to Him. They have religion in their habits but no resurrection in their hearts.

“Having a form of godliness, although they have denied its power” (2 Timothy 3:5).

The danger is not merely outside the church. The danger is inside the pew, inside the choir, inside the ministry team, inside the pulpit, inside the home that calls itself Christian while the heart remains unchanged. A man may be known by the church and still be unknown by Christ.

“Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, will enter the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 7:21).

That should make us tremble. Jesus did not warn atheists only. He warned religious people who used His name, claimed spiritual activity, and yet never belonged to Him. Their mouths were full of ministry, but their lives were full of lawlessness. Their confidence was in what they did for Christ, not in whether they had truly been brought to Christ.

“And then I will declare to them, I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness” (Matthew 7:23).

The new birth is not a mood. It is not a decision card. It is not church culture. It is not being raised in a Christian family. It is not agreeing with Christian morals. It is the supernatural work of God by which a sinner is made alive, given a new heart, brought to repentance, granted faith in Christ, and turned from darkness to light.

“Moreover, I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you” (Ezekiel 36:26).

Do not comfort yourself merely because you are near the things of God. Judas was near Christ and perished. The Pharisees searched the Scriptures and rejected the One to whom the Scriptures testified. The Israelites saw mighty works and still hardened their hearts.

“Test yourselves to see if you are in the faith; examine yourselves” (2 Corinthians 13:5).

The question is not, “Have I been in church?” The question is, “Have I been born again?” Do I hate the sin I once protected? Do I love the Christ I once resisted? Do I bow to the Word I once ignored? Do I grieve over my corruption? Do I run to the cross? Do I bear fruit that only grace can produce?

“By this we know that we have come to know Him, if we keep His commandments” (1 John 2:3).

A church seat cannot save you. A Christian family cannot save you. Baptism cannot save you. Ministry cannot save you. Knowledge cannot save you. Morality cannot save you. Only Christ can save sinners, and the man who belongs to Christ will not remain dead in the very sins from which Christ came to deliver him.

“They profess to know God, but by their deeds they deny Him” (Titus 1:16).

So let every churchgoer tremble kindly before God. Let every professing Christian examine himself in the light of Scripture. Let no one hide behind years of attendance while the soul remains untouched by grace.

It is better to be disturbed now than damned later.

It is better to question false peace than to hear Christ say, “I never knew you.”

Religion can place you among the people of God.

Only the new birth can place you in Christ.

2. Walking
3. Sprinting

Hit weights 2-3x a week. Walking daily. Sprinting once a week.

[Kristie Leong M.D. @DrKristieLeong]

🚨 Most people do squats wrong for real results after 40.

Regular squats build strength.

But they miss the explosive power their body needs to stay strong, mobile, and independent as they age.

Enter squat jumps.

This movement is a plyometric upgrade that fires up fast-twitch muscle fibers, one that builds strength and power.

They also torch calories, and trigger bone remodeling through impact.

Studies show just weeks of jump training can boost vertical jump height by ~25%.

I see the vicious cycle all the time: declining muscle power → poor balance → higher fall risk → loss of independence.

Squat jumps break this cycle by building explosive strength in your quads, glutes, hamstrings, core, while supporting bone density.

Try this: 3 sets of 8-10 squat jumps.

1.Stand with feet shoulder-width apart.
2.Squat down.
3.Propel upward into a jump.
https://t.co/njsTX5GReq soft and repeat.

No equipment needed.

Are you ready to jumpstart your power?

I don't hate socializing. I just love being home. Where it's quiet. Safe. Soft. No small talk. No noise. No pretending to be someone I'm not. Just me. Reading. Thinking. Listening to music. Staring at the wall. Watching old movies. Being bored. And feeling life deeply. Some people call it boring. To me, it's where I finally hear myself again.
