[Dr. Eckleburg]

The question is, "will a temple be rebuilt?" Cuz we know the temple of God is being built up. It consists of His saints, the body of Christ. We are the true "third temple" of God. We are what is pictured in Ezekiel 40-48. Not the carnal structure that men might construct in the middle east. But the universal new Jerusalem with Christ at the center, our Holy of Holies.

AMEN!

I can understand enemies of Christianity arguing this point. But it's very puzzling when Christians maintain that a physical third temple must be built.

Jesus Christ and all who love Him are the third temple.

To build another temple with brick and stone seems to clearly deny Scripture...

"Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.

Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,

And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed. " -- 1 Peter 2:5-8

Some are "lively stones" building up the Son's kingdom, and some trip over this stone and are offended by it.

And for good measure, Peter the Calvinist adds..."being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed."

As God wills, "that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth (Romans 9:11)."

Deut 31:29

For I know that after my death ye will utterly corrupt yourselves, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you; and evil will befall you in the latter days; because ye will do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands.

Am a bit curious.

I wonder IF it will be the case

that WHEN the 3rd ISRAELITE TEMPLE IS REBUILT

and then WHEN the AntiChrist sets up his image in that 3rd TEMPLE

and then WHEN the Israeli's realize they've been deceived, been had by a satanic imposter instead of their awaited Messiah . . .

how many Hollanders will alter their theological understandings to fit more closely with the Biblical and objective realities.

= = = = = =

Individuals as the temples of God have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with displacing the prophecies about the rebuilding of the 3rd Jewish Temple and it's place in END TIMES PROPHECIED events.
