"But He was speaking of the temple of His body." John 2:21Matthew 24:2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
Is there any stone left upon another from the buildings of the temple ?
"But He was speaking of the temple of His body." John 2:21
Yes!! The Roman army destroyed the temple and left no stone upon another
No...not that body. That was a foreshadowing. We are His body.So, according to you: the resurrected Jesus appeared before the cruxifiction of Jesus ? Which is the destruction of the temple of His body.
"But He was speaking of the temple of His body." John 2:21
We are His body.
So, according to you: the resurrected Jesus appeared before the cruxifiction of Jesus ? Which is the destruction of the temple of His body.
Then the great tribulation already happen, because the abomination of desolation had to stand in the holy place, before it was destroyed:
Matthew 24:15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
Israel is ready now to rebuild their temple and they will very soon!
The thing is Jesus said: "stand in the holy place" and not "stand in the holy place that shall be rebuild 2 millenia after this one is destroyed" And so everyone that heard Him, understook Him to be refering to the Holy Place at the temple in Jerusalem at that time, and because Jesus is the perfect comunicator, there is no way He didnt perfectly communicate to his disciples.
Matthew 24:1 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.
Jesus was talking about the temple of His time. Israel rebuilding theyr temple is not Scripture. It is just your opinion.
Israel is ready now to ""rebuild their temple""
There is nothing in Scripture that says the temple will be rebuild. Only that it will be destroyed. So the witness of the Word is greater than your own. There was only one temple at theyr time, and it was destroyed.
There must be a temple that anti-Christ will sit in and declare that he is God.
Future event==2Thessalonians 2:4
Yes, and there was: the temple that Christ walked on, the temple of His time, which He said would be utterly removed, and was.
Yes, Paul wrote it before the destruction of the temple, and is refering to the future -> when the abomination of desolation will stand in that same temple, which it had to be before the destruction of the temple.
There is no Scripture that suggests the temple would be rebuild. And all prophecy in Matthew 24 is related to the the temple that Jesus walked on:
Matthew 24:1 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.
2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
Now I want to point out that this Antichrist cannot commit the abomination of desolation until the Temple exists again.
"Not one stone shall be left here upon another, that shall not be thrown down" simply means that all strongholds of men and of this world will fail to hold up by their own strength--as we all were broken from the start, since Adam.So tell us why are there survivors, when He said not one stone would be left upon another of the temple of His body, that turns out to be us?
Matthew 24:22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
"Not one stone shall be left here upon another, that shall not be thrown down" simply means that all strongholds of men and of this world will fail to hold up by their own strength--as we all were broken from the start, since Adam.
As for the shortening of days, such is the mercy of God, that we should suffer only for a time.
