Lindsey (p. 56-57) said, “It is certain that the Temple will be rebuilt. Prophecy demands it.” Problem is, not a single verse of the Bible can be mustered to support a future rebuilding of the temple. This idea is merely an invention of dispensationalists to try to justify their theory.
Seriously?
In Ezekiel 40–48 Ezekiel sees a detailed vision of a grand and glorious temple. If the vision is to be literally fulfilled, then the fulfillment must be future, for nothing like what is described in Ezekiel 40–48 has taken place up to this point. The dimensions of Ezekiel’s temple are far larger than the temple in Jesus’ day, and that temple was a grand structure.
Correct. Ezekiel very clearly describes a third temple. I believe Zechariah 6 says the messiah will build the temple himself, but I think one will be built.
