If you’re talking about the Jews ... yeah!
.
>> “and the Jews are throwing a monkey-wrench into the works of Presbyterians!” <<
.
Actually, the Presbyterians are throwing their own wrenches into their ‘works.’
.
With all due respect, as an ordained Christian minister it is my humble opinion that Christians spend far too much time trying to predict Jesus’ return rather than fulfilling the Great Commission and sharing the gospel. I doubt Jesus will care if you correctly predicted His return but did nothing to introduce the lost to Him.
.
Obviously you do not know the word of God!
It's not about “Predicting” his return. He has demanded that we “Watch” for his coming in the cloud.
Revelation 3:3
“Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.”
He told us what day he is coming for us, but not what year.
That is why we must watch.
Churchianity is blind to the word of God; that is why he demanded that we "come out of her."
.
Where is the Gihon Spring then?
Which passage are you talking about...this one?
Matthew 24: 32 “Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. 33 Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door.
34 I tell you the truth, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.
Springs do dry up, or get cut off in quakes, etc.
There is zero question about the exact site of Solomon’s holy of holies. The stone slab of the elevator that hid the ark is in plain view.
Anyway, you are correct that Yeshua’s temple will not be built by men seeking to ‘hurry’ the Lord.
.
You are correct, the generation that “Sees all these things” that he spoke of is the one that shall not pass, not the generation to whom he first delivered the prophecy.
.
I agree with you on that. It’s what he said.
Christ will rule in the Temple during the millennium after the Great Tribulation we are experiencing the birthing pains now
Just to clarify I’m a pretribulation rapture beliver with a literal 7 years and 1000 years...
Gotcha.
Being a Catholic, I don’t believe in the Millennium.
How much of scripture is prophecy and how much talked about the end times? Do you really think we can talk about His return without introducing who He is?
Ephraiam is.
Bringing Ephraim to Yeshua was the sole mission of all of the disciples and apostles. That is said plainly by Yeshua in Matthew 15:24
“But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
Judah was never part of “The House of Israel.” Judah was blinded specifically so that their lost cousins could be saved.
Some of that effort took place while the apostles were alive, but the majority of it is happening right now, and demonstrating why Judah had to be blinded for that to happen.
Judah is presently the only part of Israel that is following the most important part of the Father's wishes: The appointed times (Feasts) that teach us how and when to watch for his prophetic events. Without understanding and following those important prophetic “shadow pictures” of coming events, one cannot avoid the tribulation in the place that Yehova is preparing for that purpose, in his land.
Without the blinding of Judah, the knowledge would have been lost due to the departure of most of “christianity” from Yeshua’s Way in the fourth century and onward to the present.
Today, most of “The House of Israel” doesn't even know who they are. Judah is not of The House of Israel, and none of the House of Israel are Jews. Together, they are the “Two Sticks” of the prophets. That is not a dichotomy, it is the word of God. The House of Israel are the dominant nations of the western world. That is what Joseph prophesied in Genesis 48 and 49. Part of the House of Israel is hidden in all of the nations of the world

.
>> “Being a Catholic, I dont believe in the Millennium.” <<
.
Nor, apparently, any other part of the word of God.
.
Yehova’s rest will not be for unbelievers. Read the epistle to the Hebrews.
.
The only reason you are aware that the Scriptures are the Word of God is that the Catholic Church teaches that they are.
That is the most absurd statement I’ve seen all day.
All of the scriptures were well established 200 years before the first catholic came along.
Catholicism is the destruction of the Way of Yeshua.
It is the broad path to destruction.
.
The Catholic Church began to exist on Pentecost, shortly after the Ascension.
The entire New Testament was written by Catholics, and it was the Catholic Church that eventually defined which writings were inspired Scripture.
