The temple symbolizes where God dwells. The temple is not God. Our bodies are suppose to be a temple to the Lord. We are not a temple but rather the temple is the vessel that contains what is deep inside of our hearts. Using an analogy, a church building is not the church, those inside represent the church as long as they are gathered together in the name of God. If so, Jesus is in the midst of them. Your estimation on this point is spiritually in error.
I would think one difference is one is made with corrupted human hand (God does not dwell) in that kind and one that works from within (God does dwell) The incorruptible pouring His unseen power on the flesh . The work of God working in us strengthening giving us giving us rest.

The wilderness tabernacle, as a gospel sign or wedding invitation to all the pagan nations. A tabernacle that moved around as if it were the beautiful feet of those sent. That one time demonstration ended when they hit the propmised land. You could say the vail was rent.

After that, the abomination of desolation. Kings in Israel .God gave them over to the jealousy they had of the surrounding pagan nation . They were faithless, clueless .

The time of reformation(1st century) has come. the government of peace between all nations is restored. Mankind is the temple of God as it was from the beginning. Abel, the first prophet apostle martyr.

In your estimation apparently nothing. I guess that we're done here.
Don't stop your ears and run-off. Let's see how your teaching holds up to scripture.

Guys I am struggling to understand this... Ezekiel had a vision of Temple which he describes from ch.40 and so on. Here's the struggle:
1) what temple was that? 2nd? 3rd? Different?
2) if it was 2nd Temple then why was it build in a different way that described by the Prophet Ezekiel?
3) if it was a future temple (3rd etc) then why are there detailed instructions for priests to give offerings?
It must have been the third. I do not think the Antichrist will rule in the 3rd temple straight away, because he offers a peace treaty with Israel 3 years before he breaks that covenant. During the time before Antichrist rules and Israel has a temple there will be Jewish traditions built into its system. This is an opinion of mine.
