Christian Church Metaphor Explored in Psalm 79 and Psalm 94

One commentary reflects on Psalm 79, describing how “the nations… defiled Your holy temple and reduced Jerusalem to rubble,” and uses the passage as a metaphor for the modern U.S. church. It warns that the church should not become a business, a state‑controlled institution, or a marketing entity, but remain the spiritual temple of believers.

A second piece examines Psalm 94, asking how long the wicked will triumph. It characterises the wicked as those who habitually sin, display arrogance, hypocrisy, and deceit while claiming Christian faith, and describes their oppression of the vulnerable and their resistance to correction.
