My problem is that if the Rapture is imminent, and the seven-year period can only start once it has happened, then that means that a Temple can be approved, built, and up-and-running in time for the AC to set up his image in it, all within three and a half years from now.
Lots of conjectures and calculations regarding years and months and Feast days etc. are interesting.
Some may turn out to be true. Most, probably won’t.
Things are happening in the prophetic schedule at a faster and faster clip.
And, I wouldn’t be all that surprised to find that the Rapture is a lot closer than many think. It may not be as close as some think.
Our task, imho, is to BE OVERCOMERS IN HIM regardless and to OCCUPY UNTIL HE COMES . . . to walk close to Him and be diligent about THE MASTER’S BUSINESS for HIS KINGDOM.
Oktar added that the Temple of Solomon "will be rebuilt and all believers will worship there in tranquility." During his meeting with the Sanhedrin Rabbis, Oktar expressed his belief that the Temple could be rebuilt in one year:
""It could be done in a year at most. It could be built to the same perfection and beauty. The Torah says it was built in 13 years, if I remember correctly. It could be rebuilt in a year in its perfect form.""
My guess is that they would use something akin to pre-fab to get it up quickly.
THe Temple will be built prior to the Tribulation. Look at the passage concerning the two witnesses.
Rev. 11:3And I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy one thousand, two hundred and sixty days,...
The witnesses are prophesying outside the Temple for 3 1/2 years (360 days x 3.5). This may also answer your earlier question about how people come to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior during this time. The witnesses are testifying.
