"You think the OT prophets didn't attend Temple services? On what do you base this?"

Please show me chapter and verse where a prophet went regularly to the temple? When a prophet showed up in public it was usually bad news for the people in his community. Most prophets lived in seclusion because it was part of the burden of their call. When they spoke, their words were from God so they wisely kept their words few and the connection with other people rare.

“But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers. “God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth." John 4:23-24

The "where" is never mentioned because it is not important. The condition of the heart of those who worship is what is essential.

You're trying to tell me that OT prophets were "renegades" who didn't obey the Law, and that's why God chose them to deliver his messages?
