2 THESSALONIANS 2:1-16
“IN HIS EARTHLY MINISTRY, JESUS ENTERED THE TEMPLE AT A TIME OF RELIGIOUS DEGRADATION AND LAID CLAIM ON RESTORING IT TO IT'S RIGHTFUL PLACE (JOHN 2:13-22)
[CONTRA ANTIOCHUS AND HIS EVIL ACTIONS]) … JESUS SUBSTITUTIONARY DEATH AND RESURRECTION PUT AN END TO THE NEED FOR MORNING AND EVENING SACRIFICES ONCE AND FOR ALL (HEBREWS 10:1-18)… THE FINAL WORD IS NOT BY THE RAM, R GOAT, BUT THE LAMB”
