Mark Chapter 13

Mk13:2“Do you see these great buildings?"

Jesus asks the disciples, if they saw the great buildings (which was the temple). What they saw was the physical temple. A great building, made out of stone and refined with gold(hehe... I don't know if the temple was that beautiful under the Roman Empire. But at least the buildings were so great, that the disciples were impressed!). However, these great buildings will be destructed. Because "Not one stone shall be left upon another, that shall not be thrown down.”(Mk.2:2).

So do we see these great buildings in our daily lives? Are we impressed of them? It's not a bad thing, that we are impressed of them, but I think that we should remind ourselves, that these things will all be destructed one day, that "Not one stone shall be left upon another, that shall not be thrown down.”(Mk.2:2).

The only thing, that lasts forever is (actually there are many things, but they can be sum up to one): God's word!!! That's all.
