for the record
1. A temple does not NEED to be built to restore salvation to anyone
2. According to the author of Hebrews. The sacrifice of bulls and goats has NEVER taken away sin, so no temple in any age has been used for forgiveness of sin
3. The temple IS mentioned in future prophecy. It is not only seen, it is defiled, and it is part of prophecy. So when we get excited that the temple can be built soon, and we may witness the fulfillment of prophecy. people should join us in celebration. not attack us as preaching a false gospel.
bearing false witness against others is a sin. Lets repent and move on please
HAVE YOU NOTICED, IF THEIR POINT MAKES NO SENSE, AND YOU CLEARLY POINT THAT OUT WITH SCRIPTURE; THEN THEY WILL LIE ABOUT WHAT YOU SAID, SO THEY DO NOT HAVE TO ADMIT THEY WERE WRONG IN THE FIRST PLACE. IT IS LIKE THEY THINK THE END JUSTIFIES THE MEANS.
I meant to get back to you with an aerial photo of the TEMPLE SITE in the City of David's OPHEL, to prove they were not already building the TEMPLE. I had a hard time finding it that is NEW ENOUGH to validate it was not under construction SECRETLY. Every still photo was too old. I did not think I could Pause a video, take a screen shot, and came up with video from Aug. 27, 2019. First remember this photo of the Courtyard between Ft. Antonio and the Temple:
That Southeast corner TOWER was Taller to have a LOOK OUT for an uprising in the TEMPLE courtyards. See the three tunnels going under Fortress Antonia, on the lower level. I figured out what they were FOR. That was their Stable for HORSES.
See that Southeast Corner Wall of Jerusalem, which would have been approximately where Fortress Antonia walls were in JESUS Day. Fortress Antonia ran straight up along that Southern Wall to the west, and in this picture from a helicopter, is the EASTERN WALL of Fortress Antonia. So the tip of that Red Arrow, would have been approximately where the Southeast Corner of the TEMPLE was. ONLY do not forget Prince Simon Severely LOWERED that HILL of Mount Zion in his ROCK QUARRY, in 132 A.D.; because the ROMANS defiled the Bed Rock by building a TEMPLE TO JUPITER, on the site where they tour down the Jewish TEMPLE to GOD.
According to JOSEPHUS, that was 600 Feet from Fortress Antonia to the Center of the Temple, which was called the Eastern Gate. So below, the Court of the Gentiles is way too small, and the eastern Gate, was Centered with the TEMPLE. Josephus said when all the gates were open and he was in the Eastern Gate, he could see the curtain of the Holy of Holies.
TINY Fortress TOO SMALL - it housed 10000, (6000 soldiers, and 4000 support staff), BECAUSE ROME DID NOT WANT Soldiers to be dependent on locals for ANYTHING.
