THE SADDEST THING
Mark 13:1-9
The saddest thing is to be untrue to God’s plan for one’s life. The Jewish Temple was the heart of the Jewish nation. It enshrined all that the nation stood for. It represented the national ideal—faithfulness to God and to their God-given world-mission. They were untrue to God and to their world-mission. So they were destroyed as a nation (not as a people). But they are to have another chance. The patience of God!
