Didn't Nebuchadnezzar take the ark to Bablylon in 586 BC? I believe it was never returned.
No.
How is the Ark different than a golden calf?

He won`t get it because as we all know the Clintons have it, which is why a rapist and sexual predator was able to be elected unbelievably not only once but twice for President, and a bonafide psychopath "elected" as Senator.
I thought it was in a church in Ethiopia.
WorldNutDaily - the place where they were absolutely convinced that Y2K was going to be the end of the world...
According to this, the ark was taken in 586 from Jerusalem. Probably in the basement of one of Saddam's palaces or buried out in the Iraqi desert somewhere.

Very interesting article on the theory that it was taken south by descendants of the Queen of Sheba, and is still kept in a church in Ethiopia, here:

I found this a fascinating read.
Well, either it does not protect one's army in battle, or the French did not excavate and remove it. The two are mutually exclusive.
The Ethopian legend about Menelik does not fit the historical time frames for the events of the appearance of the Ark in Aksum. In all probability, Menelik was not a historical figure.
Not in any way to detract from the expectation of the imminent appearance of the Ark. Chapter 18 of Issiah forecasts the delivery of a gift which is an "ensign" from Ethopia to the Mount of Zion at a time of famine in Ethopia.
Since I do not read Daniel 9:26-27 as requiring construction of a Third Temple, I see the probable circumstances as a little different.
Daniel 9:27 says that at the time of the Abomination of Desolation event, approximately three and one-half years before the return of Jesus Christ, the sacrificial worship system will be terminated by the Prince of 9:26. Obviously, by implication, the worship system must be reinstated prior to that date since it has not been conducted since the late spring of 70 A.D.
Many believers read into this forecast, the proposition that the Temple must be rebuilt to permit the sacrifices to resume. Maybe. But we know of no reason to believe that is so--the sacrifices were conducted many years before the first temple was constructed in a tent and they could be resumed at that location at any time.
Many Jews expect the sacrifices to resume when the Messiah comes--so return of the Ark from Ethopia might well trigger the appearance of an individual of Jewish ancestry in Bethlehem who claims to be the Messiah who will confirm a treaty with Israel initiating the sacrifices.
If he is right, then expect the islamos to go nuts.
There's a movement to rebuild the Temple, and all the pieces have come together (original temple incense, anointing oil,the location of Gilgal,etc), with the exception of the red heifer (may be coming soon), and the Ark of The Covenant.
Oh, yeah, there's a pesky little mosque, the Dome of The Rock, that would need to be razed prior to rebuilding the temple.
Exceedingly incendiary. If the Ark is located, there will be big trouble.
Can anybody say, "Al Capone's vault"?
Rev 11:19 And the temple of God was opened in Heaven, and there was seen in His temple the ark of His covenant, and there occurred lightnings and voices, and thunders and an earthquake, and a great hail.
