You're making a good argument here... Holy Spirit left the building when the curtain was torn, and then the temple was completely destroyed because He declared temple made with hands wasn't to His liking, made another without hands, so what building is there left to profane. How to profane a place God doesn't want to dwell in and hence isn't sanctified.

You covered alot of history here saint.
The curtain was torn because jesus our high priest offered himself as the once and only sacrifice needed.
As paul said we now go bodly into the presence of the Lord. No need for the holy of holies.
The temple made without hands is the church. That's why paul ask don't you know that you are the temple of the Holy Spirit?
70ad was the last event that finally scattered the remaining Jewish nation as God said he would do and for a time among all the nation's of the world.
In 1948 Israel became a nation in one day just as God said it would and is now in the process of calling Israel back. Just like God said he would☺☺☺

Yes, the entire body of Christ was that temple without hands, foretold to be raised in 3 days, which conversely means the stone temple was over and done; then newly raised temple is furnished with the Spirit's presence at the Pentecost, after the sanctuary (inner man) got cleansed.
So it doesn't make sense . If the Spirit won't dwell in a building made with hands any more, how is such building considered "a holy place"?
I really wonder how people reconcile this... To me going back to a rock building and to animal sacrifices never made sense, why would interrupting of animal sacrifices be somehow a bad thing before God, post 33AD. He abolished it Himself already. Then why is it considered a work of evil that they ceased.

“But immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened , and the moon will not give its light , and the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. And then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the S on of M an coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory. And He will send forth His angels with a great trumpet blast , and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.

Everything in the OT was a shadow of the components of the kingdom of heaven Christ brought. Consider this, the lamb in the OT wasn't anything like Christ, it was a PLACEHOLDER to illustrate kingdom things. Christ takes away sin while the shadow didn't. The OT temples were the same, they were nothing like the real temples, it was a PLACEHOLDER. God didn't dwell in temples made with hands.
Since the heavenly has already come, God will not return to the shadows ever again.... So in the NEW Testament, any reference to the temple is talking about us.
