NO 3rd Temple
Now I can hear you say: “No third temple? But the Jews are preparing for it and everybody is waiting for it. The book of revelations can’t play out without a third temple. There must be a third temple for the antichrist to sit in and proclaim himself god, just as there must come the two individual witnesses and there is proof in Scripture for that.”
Those are arguments I have heard/seen repeatedly in this cyber city, coming from people who claim to be “Christians”, coming from preachers of the church. If those arguments came from Jews, I would understand, since they do not acknowledge the Messiah and are still waiting for their king to come and rule from the temple. Coming from “Christians”, however, makes me fear that the majority has been deceived already.
YHWH’s word, as relayed by His prophets and apostles in Scripture, contains the Truth and the Light we were given to go by. That WORD does NOT prophecy a third temple building. There already is a very detailed analysis about this subject, so I won’t repeat the work others have done. The author of that article specifically looks at 2Thes.2:4, which is mostly used as proof for a 3rd temple. So I strongly advise you, who are waiting for that abomination, to click through on this link, which by the way, I only stumbled upon 2 days ago, a confirmation for what I wrote on the 2 witnesses and the 6th Trumpet having blown.
Neither the Gospels, nor the OT or the Epistles or Revelation talk about a third temple building. Anybody claiming otherwise interprets Scripture according to their private understanding (2Pet1:20), or just follows the error of the wicked, as Peter wrote in 2Pet.3:17.
I have, for example, read one preacher say, Rev.11: 1+2 “strongly suggests” a third temple building. This is a typical example of private interpretation of Scripture to prove a doctrine. The only thing these two verses may be proof of, is the dating of the book of Revelation, if John did indeed measure the stone structure in Jerusalem.
Conclusion:
Since the Word does not prophecy a third temple building, I can confidently say: there will be NO 3rd Temple. The Jews may have set their mind to it against YHWH, as always, but HE, who does not live in stone buildings, will set their plans to naught, as He already did when they tried to rebuild the temple in AD 363. You can read about that foiled attempt here.
Please do not follow human doctrine! Follow the Holy Spirit of Yashua, by whom Scripture was inspired. DO NOT WAIT for something that only exists in the minds of the deceived.
Irritating to read someone who post an article condemning so many that ‘don’t know’ and doesn’t even research the topic to the point of correctly identifying the “Book of Revelation” It is not ‘Revelations’ – From Eschatology 101, any real student of Eschatology learns not to make that mistake on day one! Good grief! …and you want to be taken seriously?
I’m no student of Eschatology, but witness for Yashua and those who are called out do take me seriously.
The Third Temple will take around one year to build, and will be financed by the Rothschild banking cartel. Since Christ condemned all further temple worship, the new temple will only stand a short time. Christ will destroy it with earthquakes prior to or during his intermediate visitation to the earth. Desert Owl has given his opinion. It is interesting but worthless.
@Common Sense In order not to put a stumbling stone in front of people like you, I’ve edited the piece.
IDIOT! There is but ONE “Holy Place” .. the Holy of Holies! The Holy of Holies was the innermost room in both the Tabernacle and both Temples …
The Babylonian Bastards That Be could very well opt for another TABERNACLE rather than a Temple … but anyone who thinks the Muslims are going to permit any Hebrew structure on the Temple Mount, WHICH IS THEIR PROPERTY as present, has a severe case of the lumbering loony tunes ….

Fundamentally your article is correct. However, you would do your readers a service if you clearly stated what 2nd Thessalonians does say; that the ecclesiastical association of Rome and the Zionist Jewish sect will establish themselves in the region of the Holy of Holies claiming they are the true Priesthood. That of course, just in postulation, is impossible based on current observations of their behavior. Nonetheless, through religion, politics and banking they will seize power over the whole world if only for a short time.
Whether or not a physical structure is built is academic to the intentions of the NWO and the picture painted by the prophets and apostles. They will announce its construction, and begin construction, according to all relevant scripture, in troublous times. Finishing it, while the world is nuking itself, is a whole nuther matter.
It is easier, and much more assured, to just watch for the vaporisation of Damascus and beginning of the last war of this age, in the region of the Euphrates, to know when time is really short.
It is very unlikely that a stone temple will be constructed, but a replica of the portable temple could be set up in days.
Daniel 12 states the daily sacrifice will be stopped at the 1290th day. This is saying that 30 days before the 1260 days, which is the 42 months or 3 1/2 years of the Great Tribulation, the priesthood will be offering a daily sacrifice. This will be stopped and the abomination that makes desolate will stand in the Holy of Holies.
Before all of this, which begins at the 5th Seal, comes the 4th Seal. This 4th Seal has been ignored and not understood. Read it; the 4th Horse is given power over 25% of the worlds population. That numbers over 1.5 billion and the 4th Horse is to kill with the sword.
This is World War Three — and is just ahead of us. I wonder if it could possibly be a repeat of W W Two and the US loses this time???? Just a thought, I wonder who Assyria is in today’s world?
Ever questioned why the greatest military power the world has ever seen is not in end time prophecy — anywhere? It just may not exist?
@Truthseeker By ignoring historic facts, truth is manipulated and obscured.
desert owl not sure of your point
Truthseeker: You have come to the conclusion that the 4th Seal must be WW3. That is only possible if you ignore 1900 years of history as if they never happened. That is what I call manipulating the truth to prove your point.

I have been using Ezekiel 5 and 6 to show what is coming in our day. Those and many more scriptures in Ezekiel talk about the same time period.
First can you show me where one third of the house of Israel, not the Jews, were killed by famine and disease then another third killed by war? — and then another third were taken captive and transported around the world as slaves??
When the House of Israel was taken captive by the Assyrians around 120 years before the House of Judah was taken captive by the Babylonians, the Assyrians just moved Israel away and they were never heard from again. They are called the lost 10 tribes to this day.
It is too long to include in this comment but if you will read the 10 chapter of Ezekiel it will show the following:
It talks of the day of visitation and the desolation coming from far
God uses Assyria as His rod of punishment.
Through out the whole chapter the term “In that Day” is used verifying it speaks of the end times, not the last 1900 years.
Assyria bragged how easy it will be to gather all the riches from the House of Israel.
It talks of the remnant returning and that as promised to Abraham and as Jacob passed on to Joseph’s two sons they will be in number as the sands of the sea, that is 100′s of millions but only a remnant will return. that number will be 10 %, God’s tithe.
In that day — his burden (captivity) shall be taken away.
I understand your concept is end time prophecy has occurred unnoticed, and all of a sudden Christ will be here. That is not what I find written in God’s word. From my study I believe at the time of the return of Jesus Christ to the Mound of Olives the earth will have lost 90% of the 7 billion now alive.
I do not expect any to believe what I believe, only that they may remember some of it in captivity. The next harvest will be the remnant of the whole house of Israel as they come out of captivity.
Just stick this in the back of your mind, it will not be long; America is and will sink deeper into its pit, there will be a world wide financial crash, there will be a trade war, Europe will unite, Japan will rearm, as we sink into famine and disease Germany and Japan will come. Three is God’s number of finality- WW3 and this time when the trumpet is sounded for war it says no one shows up, our military will be no more.
Truthseeker I agree with you on the 10 lost tribes of Israel.
I also agree that Ezekiel does speak of “that day” in the sense of end times,
being the last 2000 odd years, which you, like many others, try to press into 7 years.
I cannot and do not connect the 4th Seal to WW3, as you do, but see it depicted in
in the 6th Trumpet.
As to your request to show you :
History shows that Black Death alone decimated Europe’s population by between 50-60%.
Then followed 2×100 years war and the Great Famine, claiming another 25-33% of European lives. And after all that, a probable 30% of Europeans fled the great persecution, to live & work like(not as) slaves in foreign countries.
there’s nothing in revelations about a third temple, nor any other biblical text
All would be well served to read for themselves instead of listening to someone else. I never read about a third temple because it’s just another imaginary delusion sold by the deflectors (Pastors, Reverends, etc..) who sell souls for earthly gain. They “have a form of Godliness, but deny the power therein”. You can’t blame the deflectors only for they are only capitalizing on the slothfulness of most. Thankfully, the “few” find the narrow road.
Proverbs 25:2
Do you know how many prophecies are based on that temple being built? Pay attention!
REV. 11:1-2
And there was given me a reed like a measuring rod. And the malak stood, saying: Rise, and measure the temple of Yahweh, and the altar, and its confines; But the court which is outside the temple LEAVE OUT, AND MEASURE IT NOT; for it is given to the Gentiles.
Look how detailed these instructions are, and you’re saying it’s not going to be built? Are you smarter than our Creator? who inspired this to be written?
This is the only temple without an outer court. WHY? Because the Muslim mosque is sitting exactly where the out court should be. How did Ezekiel know over 2000 years in advance that a mosque will be there? Don’t doubt the scriptures brethren, this foundation stands sure!
VERSE 1 has been fulfilled, the temple has been measured by the only one who understood the message, the most accurate model of Ezekiel’s temple has been delivered to the King of Jordan who is in charge of the temple mount. It was approved over 8 years ago.
Who is this messenger who was asked to measure the temple? Look at verse 3
– And I will give to My TWO WITNESSES to perform their prophetic offices…
your own bible is telling you that it is the TWO WITNESSES that measured the temple.
You have no idea what’s taking place do you? what a shame.
@Monnkz I know of their plans, but they won’t come to fruition.
I know their plans won’t come to fruition, its is prophesied, there won’t be a 5th ruling empire which is the NWO, Daniel only saw 4 empires, the building of the temple is also a prophecy, to deny that prophecy is silly, that’s denying Yahweh himself. 90% of the prophecies have come to pass in detail, what makes you think the the last 10% won’t occur?
Monnkz Neither Daniel nor any other OT prophet nor Revelation prophecy a third temple. Only your private interpretation of Scripture makes you see that, just as you turn around my words right here by not copying them correctly.
Quote: Neither Daniel nor any other OT prophet nor Revelation prophecy a third temple.
Wow!! Desert owl I think you’re much wiser than that, what do you call Ezekiel’s prophecy? a figment of my imagination? It will serve you well to do a more thorough study on Ezekiel’s diagram. The prophet gives vivid details and measurements of the 3rd temple and you say what?
In revelation the “Seventh Malak” measures the temple as instructed to John by Yahshua Messiah
Com’on dude, the average C student knows the temple will be built. The No Temple Idea comes from the Seventh Day Adventist these crack heads say the sun has already been darken, I think I may have slept through that one.
Monnkz Please give me Ezekiel reference you refer to. And who is the Seventh Malak?
I’m glad you asked. Google Ezekiel chapter 40 and see what comes up, the entire chapter is dedicated to the temple in extreme detail. Just read it for yourself.
The Seventh Malak you ask? intelligent question. I’ll answer you, go study the Prophet Yechetzqyah (Hebrew – May Yahweh Strengthen) , the man’s name is not even Ezekiel; you didn’t know that did you? but here you are talking about private interpretation.
Revelation 10:7 But in the days when the seventh angel…
The word translated angel is the Hebrew word Malak which is is the standard Hebrew Bible word for “messenger” both human and divine. The term “Malak” therefore simply means one who is sent. Revelation 11:1-2 tells you who was measuring the temple.
Precept upon precept; line upon line, here a little, and there a little: Isaiah 28:10
Monnkz, thanks for info.Was too tired around midnight yesterday to search,
thus my request for a reference.
Now:Ezekiel/Yechetzqyah ministered between 593-586 BCE, first temple was destroyed 586 BCE. Thus Eze 40 refers to second temple, NOT a third one.
Knowing Hebrew names is not necessary for the walk in Faith.
As I stated at the start of my article, there are many waiting for a third temple, you being one of them. That is, however, only proof of the fact that many are called, but only few are chosen and sealed.
The first and second temples had an outer court, Ezekiel’s diagram does not include the outer court as you’ve read for yourself, are you going to ignore those facts? why? Knowing Hebrew names is not necessary for the walk in Faith, but studying to show thyself approved is!
Do you even know what it means to be sealed? Do you know who the 144,000 represent? Do you know where the marriage supper will take place? Do you know what garment you’re supposed to wear? Do you even have a holy garment? Do you know what that is? what does it represent? What song are we going to sing at the wedding? Well you say you are sealed so surely you must know the answers to these questions? What is the scriptural definition of righteousness? What is the scriptural definition of sin? Ponder over that, before you go running your mouth about who is sealed and who isn’t.
Monnkz : utter/outward/outer court appears 11 times in Ezekiel plan description,twice in Eze 40 and 46 and 6 times in Eze. 42
