“What is in the Center of Your Heart”

Pastor Joey Anjiki

1. The prophesy of the fall of Jerusalem

* Mark 13:1 (See above)

* The first temple was built by Solomon in 957BC

When Babylon was taken into captivity, the gods were also destroyed

The people who returned built the second temple in 516BC under the command of Zerubbabel

From 20AD to 64AD King Herod did expansion contruction work on the second temple

* Mark 13:2 (See above)

* This prophesy was fulfilled in 70AD

2. What you will be asked when you stand before God

* In 70AD why was the temple destroyed and why did Jerusalem fall? Due to the unbelief of the people of Israel

* Religious views of modern Japanese people

* When people stop believing in God and life after death, what kind of society will it become?

* What you will be asked before God after death

* 1 Timothy 1:15 “Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners—of whom I am the worst.” (NIV)

3. What to set in the center of your heart

* Present = a deposit

* I have been good and faithful

Thoughts to share at mini church:

1. If you do not believe in God, what kind of path will you follow in your earthly life and that after death?

2. What is in the center of your heart?
