It's been 1500 years since there has been a rabbinically approved sacrifice to take place in Israel and the rabbis did approve a Gentile who trained under the leadership of selected rabbis to perform the sacrifice of two turtledoves recently in Israel. The ceremony took place in the Jordan Valley near Jericho as a number of rabbis watched to make certain all Levitical laws were kept in the offering of these two doves.
There are a number of religious Jews that have been preparing for the building of the temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem who believe that Jews need to become accustomed once again to the offering of animals for the sacrifices called for when the temple is once again standing in Jerusalem.
A rabbinically approved sacrifice being performed in Israel is tangible evidence that Bible prophecy will be fulfilled. Since the destruction of the Jewish temple in 70AD there has not been an opportunity for Jews to offer any of the required sacrifices called for under Levitical law.
Over the last 2000 years there have been several occasions in different parts of the world where rabbis would approve the offering of animals in sacrifice but nothing compared to the days when the temple was standing in Jerusalem.
Recently a Gentile, one trained by a number of rabbis, performed a sacrifice of two turtledoves in the Jordan Valley near the Dead Sea, the first rabbinically approved sacrifice in 1500 years.
This is a part of a program to prepare the Jewish people for the restoration of the sacrificial system that is called for in the first 7 chapters in the book of Leviticus. Daniel 9:27 reveals that the sacrificial system will be restored when there is a temple in Jerusalem. Even the Messiah's temple described in Ezekiel 40-46 calls for sacrifices to be restored as a part of daily Jewish life.
There will be two temples in the future for the Jewish people, one in the Tribulation period and then another in the time of the Millennial Kingdom of the future. In both of these temples, sacrifices will be made. In fact for the next temple all preparations have been made and its ready to be built in Jerusalem even right now.
A sacrifice made in Israel recently is indeed evidence that Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.
THX THX.
We sure live in interesting times!

Do you eat fish, steaks and/or chicken? I too am squeamish about doing the killin’. But I do the eatin’. ;)
Careful.
In the last chapters of Ezekiel (considered to be decriptions of the Millenium) there are animal sacrifices.
They are not sin offerings, of course, that price was paid by Christ.
See chapter 46 especially.
Thanks for helping me with the End Times ping lists Quix!
GOD Bless you!
Oh my! The dominionists and others here who deny prophecy will soon be by to deny any significance I’m sure.
Can you add me to the list? Thanks!
INDEED.
Done. Thanks for asking.

Yes definetly!

Jews can do what they want. But I can't see how a Christian can approve.
Returning to the sacrifices of the Mosaic order is a huge redemptive U turn.
For since the law has but a shadow of the good things to come instead of the true form of these realities, it can never, by the same sacrifices that are continually offered every year, make perfect those who draw near. Otherwise, would they not have ceased to be offered, since the worshipers, having once been cleansed, would no longer have any consciousness of sin? But in these sacrifices there is a reminder of sin every year. For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.
Just a quick question, but do you see how you can be right yet there still be animal sacrifices during the Tribulation? I'm not denying that you're right about the pointlessness of animal sacrifices now, just pointing out that the Bible does say that animal sacrifices will resume in Israel just prior too and during the End of Days.
Well the temple has not been built yet...Will see...
The true and final temple, built of the living stones of His people, has been being built for many centuries.
Judaism has very little to do with Christianity. Christianity merely cherry-picks bits and pieces of Judaism to try to justify the “truth” of Christianity. Let the Jews do what they will.
you are so right, the only temple of God that will ever exist is the Israel of God, The Church, which is the Body of Christ.
the false teaching that people follow looking to physical Israel for fulfillment of Bible prophecy is laughable.
look around you man, can’t you see the true Church is in tribulation?? the falling away from the Church we are witnessing is simply staggering!
“Oh my! The dominionists and others here who deny prophecy will soon be by to deny any significance I’m sure.”
‘Dominionist’. I have heard the term, and been called such. What does it mean, in current useage?
It would be best for you to do a search on the term and read up. Bottom line is that they believe that Christians must take dominion over the world and will do so before Christ returns. It’s a little more detailed then that but they pretty much believe that before Christ can return all governments of the world will be under the control of Christians.
