Third Temple Prophecy

[Avinu]

Which texts do you use to state that a 3rd temple will be rebuilt?

Brother Lao, did you happen to hear the teaching made on the thread that started this? The scriptures are Daniel 9:27 (I know, I know you already think that's been fulfilled, but it hasn't) 1Thess. 2:1-4, Rev. 11:1-2

Already we disagree on Dan 9:27 so I won't mention that. 2 Thess 2:1-4 does not say a temple will be rebuilt only the the man of sin will sit in the temple. The temple is the church not a building
1 Corinthians 3:16
(16) Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

With that in mind now let us read Rev 11
Revelation 11:1-2
(1) And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.
(2) But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.

This is talking about judgement that begins in the house of God
1 Peter 4:17
(17) For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

I'm sorry brother, but this is not a spiritual building, because since Yeshua is on the throne of my heart, there is no room for anti-christ. Yah and satan will not dwell in our hearts together. Yah would not permit that. The temple IS a physical building.

With that in mind now let us read Rev 11
Revelation 11:1-2
(1) And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.
(2) But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months. Brother, not everything is as spiritual as you would think, first the physical and then the spiritual. If you look at what you're claiming, you see it doesn't make sense that this verse in details the finishing of the time of the gentiles, for forty two months, how does that have to relate to YHVH judging His house first, He is going to do that for forty two months? This makes no sense whatsoever. Nor does scripture back this.

This is talking about judgement that begins in the house of God
1 Peter 4:17
(17) For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

No matter what Lao, I truly enjoy debating with you, because it always stays peaceful between us, that I really appreciate. Yah Bless brother

I believe the temple it is talking about is the church in general which is comprised of both good and bad. I like talking to you about the Bible, I would like to hear what you know about the sanctuary. There are many wonderful truths in that subject of which Revelation has many things mentioned about the sanctuary. Maybe a subject for another thread.

Start a thread about what you want to get into on the sanctuary, I'd love it. Shalom

Dan 9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

I think these are the verses you are referring to.
2Th 2:1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
2Th 2:2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
2Th 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
2Th 2:4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.

Rev 11:1 And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.
Rev 11:2 But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.

In each one of the scriptures you reference to, would you mind showing us where is says the temple will be rebuilt. I see nowhere in these verses does it say to build or rebuild.

Scripture shows us exactly what the temple is.
Joh 2:19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
Joh 2:20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
Joh 2:21 But he spake of the temple of his body.


1Co 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
1Co 3:17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.

2Co 6:16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

Eph 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
Eph 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
Eph 2:21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto a holy temple in the Lord:
Eph 2:22 In whom ye also are builded together for a habitation of God through the Spirit.

Now I know that there is a lot of talk about a future temple being rebuilt today but would it really matter?
Consider what happened in 363AD when the Jews attempted to build a third temple.

They began to dig the new foundation, in which work many thousands were employed. But what they had thrown up in the day was, by repeated earthquakes, the night following cast back again into the trench. "And when Alypius the next day earnestly pressed on the work, with the assistance of the governor of the province, there issued," says Ammianus, "'such horrible balls of fire out of the earth near the foundations,' which rendered the place, from time to time, inaccessible to the scorched and blasted workmen.
This is just a part of an interesting article which can be read at this link, Rebuilding the Jewish Temple, in 363 A.D.

For those of you who are having a hard time wrapping your mind around the idea of a third temple being rebuilt. Scripture is quite clear on the matter. Why it's hard to see is beyond me.

Now the thing continually used to refute is scripture concerning that our bodies are the temple of God. No arguement there. 1) I never said that rebuilding this temple is going to be where God will sit.

2) But my question to you all, is this. By indicating that these verses I've used for the 3rd temple actually means our bodies is rediculous. Because while Yeshua sits on the throne of my heart, there will NEVER be room for the anti-christ to sit there. Therefore since this sounds rediculous, than it is obvious that this is talking about a physical temple NOT to be mixed up with those who serve Yeshua. Hopefully this simple explanation makes it clear. Either way I'm done with this, this horse has been beat to death enough.

Good point.

and yes i do agree with the way you worded your last post,,,,,because they believe it is "carnal",they will seek to and have always gone about fulfilling it carnally,, so "they will build an third temple",,it is an hard thing to explain to others that the scripture is speaking of both things,,,"the non believer will see this and do this"(carnal) and the believer will see this and do the things of the spirit,,,,but since he sees the (carnal),,,,he must build him an temple to sit in,in the flesh,,,and i do believe the lord sits on the throne in your heart,,,,,,,,"in the midst of loving you",,,,,,,,,,
