I was reading Haggai yesterday. So they are rebuilding the temple and he askes a couple hypothetical questions to get them thinking, and it sure got me thinking.

1. If you touch something holy are you then holy? No
2. If you are unclean and touch something holy, is that now defiled? Yes

If we are rebuilding a temple, and in the case of Isaiah 61:4 where our corps is based in, we aim to rebuild, restore and renew. We gotta be holy, or we will defile the Lords temple. We will not be holy simply because we are working on the house of the Lord, infact if our personal lives are not holy our involvement in the temples construction will actually desecrate the holy sanctuary. Wow, its time to either lay down sin and walk in holiness or stop working on the temple.

God is here.
