Back woods preachers have been banging the drum about the third temple for years. I even caught one in a lie as he said that he documentation to prove work was nearly about to start. He didn't have a scrap of paper to prove a word he said. That was fifteen years ago and there has been no temple thus far.
The original two temples were built on the temple mount and that site is presently occupied by the Dome of the Rock, a Muslim hovel of some sort.
A Christian cannot even carry a Bible onto the site because Muslims consider that a weapon (like an AK47, or grenade).
Before Jews show up with dozers, cranes and construction crews some great change must happen to the attitude of the global Muslim community and that does not appear to be possible for quite some time.
However that may be, the present Jewish nation considers Israel itself to be the third temple.
The Temple is ready to be built.
One thing is for certain, the war of Psalm 83 and Ezekiel 38 & 39 is going to be the death knell of Islam. Many forget that no nation is pronounced for judgment in the Bible more than Edom.
That reminds me of what someone said about backwood preachers have been saying for many years, with nothing happening. ROTFL
Can I get an English translation of that?
Yes I think a temple will be built and it will be a big deal especially in the eyes of the world and especially in the eyes of Islam who would do anything to stop it.
Why all the Islam hating? Sure, it's false religion, but so is Judaism. Why aren't you hating Jews for trying nothing to build the Temple (aside from Joe Cohen, son of Rev. Joe Smith Sr., training to be a Temple priest by splashing water with red food coloring in his parents' basement)? Islam does nothing to try to prevent the Temple from being built, aside from erecting one building in an inconvenient spot, but they did so without any intention to obstruct a third temple and they didn't until centuries after the second Temple was destroyed. Why would any Christian be upset with the lack of progress of the building of the Antichrist's temple?

They found the cow. Joe Cohen is trained. Hmmm, 20-to-never years away from the third temple. I hope Joe and Bessie hang on for a while.
Update: Sad news. Bessie got old so they went ahead and made hamburger out of her. The world's jewery are looking for another red cow.
They should check Craig's List.
Martin isn't hating on Islam. He's telling it like it is. The Islamic world will go crazy if any construction of the 3rd Temple takes place on the Temple mount. And for the record, its not the AntiChrist's Temple. The AntiChrist desecrates the Temple. Its not not made for him. What's your problem with Jews anyway? You show obvious contempt and disdain for Israel and the Jews in many of your posts.
He criticizes Islam for their (potential) opposition to the building of the temple. Yet, he offers no criticism to Jews for their lack of effort and interest to build the temple (eliminating any need for Muslims to stand in the way).
How is the Temple not the Antichrist's temple?
How can anyone think of themselves as Christian while wanting a Temple built to offer animal sacrifices and to serve for as an object for the Antichrist to desecrate? As a Christian, I already have the sacrifice to end all sacrifices.
If the Jews attempted to break ground for the Temple right now there would be a full scale Middle East war.
God tells us in the Bible that the Temple will be rebuilt.
You can't stop the building of the Temple and if you have a problem with it then take it up with God.
The Temple isn't going to be built as an object for the AntiChrist. The Jews aren't building it for him. There isn't any scripture that I've ever read suggesting that the Jews build it for him. But he will make a mockery of God by sitting in the holy of holies.
You are avoiding the issue that Jews have no interest in building a Temple. Logically, if Islam should be criticized for standing in the way of the Temple, shouldn't the Jews be criticized for having no interest in building the temple (never mind the insanity and absurdity of any Christian supporting the construction of a new temple). It hasn't come to Muslims threatening war. Where has any Muslim ever made threats against the temple being built?
There is no mention of a third temple being built and such an idea contracts everything the Bible teaches.
Do you have any idea of how ridiculous you sound to me, telling me I can't stop something that has no indication of even starting.
How can you consider yourself to be a Christian while supporting the rebuilding of the Temple (for the purpose of sacrifices, as if that isn't antichristian enough, but instead will be used by the antichrist)?
First and foremost I'm a Christian based on Jesus being my Lord and Savior.
Lastly, the "abomination of desolation" is committed by the AntiChrist because the Temple is rebuilt.
maybe you don't believe ALL of scripture like i do.
How do you reconcile Christianity with a desire to build a temple for the antichrist?
The time table for that prophesy was to be fulfilled in the first century, nearly 2000 years ago.
Do you believe the part where Jesus says Jews who don't believe in him are children of the Devil.
If the Jews attempted to break ground for the Temple right now there would be a full scale Middle East war. I mean seriously what is so hard to understand about this? God tells us in the Bible that the Temple will be rebuilt. It doesn't matter what you say, what matter is what God has to say on the topic. He's seen the beginning from the end already. You can't stop the building of the Temple and if you have a problem with it then take it up with God. The Temple isn't going to be built as an object for the AntiChrist. The Jews aren't building it for him. There isn't any scripture that I've ever read suggesting that the Jews build it for him. But he will make a mockery of God by sitting in the holy of holies.
