Luk 1:31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.
Luk 1:32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
Luk 1:33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

Couldn't be wronger about this, why would God want anything to do with this filthy abominable temple?
Revelation 21:22
And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.

Thaddaeus, thats not the Temple, that the antichrist takes his seat in God's Holy Temple, of course that is not a building now or in th future;
1 Corinthians 3:16-17.
"Know ye not that ye (Christians) ARE the Temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the Temple of God him shall God destroy: for the Temple of God is holy, WHICH TEMPLE YE ARE."
"Let no man decieve you"
Right, so the New Testament is very clear on what or rather whom is the Temple of God, it is the body of the Christian which is meant to be the dwelling place of the Holy Spirit.
"What? know ye not that your body IS the Temple of the Holy Spirit, which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own." 1 Cor. 6:19
"Jesus Christ being Himself the chief corner stone; in Whom all things fitly framed together groweth unto an holy Temple IN THE LORD, in Whom ye also are builded together FOR AN HABITATION OF GOD through the Holy Spirit" Ephesians 2:20-22
So Paul is telling us what the Temple is, it is the Christian body, so we make up the overall construction built upon the cheif corner stone, Whom is Christ, so the Temple is defiled by men.
Paul in 2 Thess, again "Let no man decieve you", he says this regarding the Temple as he keeps on saying that ye (Christians) are the Temple of God and that it is men who defile the Temple, because they are decieved by the lies of Satan 2 Thess:9-10, Rom 1:25.
The anti-christ is the spirit of the lie, there are many anti-christs, there were many in his day and there are many today, these one defile the Temple, which is their body their being, being defiled and not believeing the truth it says that they will be destroyed.
So the Temple of God is not a building, the anti-christ sits in the body of men, and that is the body that the Devil wishes to occupy, your body by deception.
And for this reason God sends delusion, so don't ye know that ye ARE the Temple of God?

Also you can clearly see that John was told to measure the "Temple of God". You think God approved of this temple? No way it's going to measure up, God already told us our bodies are the temples. God knew they would build this temple supposedly for Him, and the whole world shall be fooled when satan sits in their temple.
1And 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.
2But 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.
3And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
4These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.
5And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.
6These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.
7And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.
8And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.
Even Bullinger agrees that this is an earthly building.

John tells us who and what is the anti-christ, firstly there are many as John says "Ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even NOW ARE there (=have arisen) MANY anti-christs" 1 John 2:18-19
So John says that although you have been told that there is the antichrist to come in the future, I tell you no there are many anti-christs and they are here now.
They don't need a building they just need the body of a man, that is the Temple of God. Now what is the form of the anti-christ as it takes up residence in the body of a man, it is a spirit - "this is the spirit of the anti-christ" and John says again that ye have been told that it would come, but I John say it is already here. And even more so today.

Well this is the definition of anti-christ:
22Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.
Now we can see what Christ and Paul tells us about satan and the fallen angels coming:
24For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
I don't think he is talking about Benny Hinn either.
9Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
Satan shall be the one doing these miracles.
Lets look at Revelations and see what it tells us.
11And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
12And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
14And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
First beast is the one world government, second beast is the dragon; Satan himself.
What else does Christ tell us?
24For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one part under heaven, shineth unto the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day.
25But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation.
26And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
27They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
It will be just like when the fallen angels were here before.
9And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
He's coming alright.
