Drawing on Karkkainen’s international experience and comprehensive research on the church, this revised and expanded edition is thoroughly updated to incorporate recent literature and trends. This unique primer not only orients readers to biblical, historical, and contemporary ecclesiologies but also highlights contextual and global perspectives and includes an entirely new section on interfaith comparative theology.

The Temple pamphlet
The pamphlet shows beautiful pictures-
* Old Testament Temple built by King Solomon
* Old Testament Temple as it was rebuilt after the Babylonians destroyed it in 586 BC, and
* New Testament Temple where Jesus worshiped (built by King Herod). This is the beautiful Temple where Jesus amazed the scholars as a child, where he threw out the money changers, where he praised the widow who gave all she had, and where the veil ripped from top to bottom when he died on the cross. See the Temple, the Court of the Gentiles, the Court of the Women, and the Portico.
