The Third Temple – Church of God

(Copyright 2023) by Dwight Fleming (Oroville, California)
The short video, linked below, provides an excellent report on the difficulty of building a third temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. It also covers the history of the Temple Mount and the building of The Dome of the Rock. You will see video evidence of past clashes on the Temple Mount between Muslims and Israeli police. Any attempt to allow Jews to worship or pray on the Temple Mount will be violently resisted by Muslim believers. This video will supplement the article that I recently sent out, titled, “Red Heifer or Red Herring?” This is where I questioned if a third temple has to be built in order to fulfill Paul’s prophecy found in 2 Thessalonians 2:1-4. Paul said that a man of sin or lawlessness would sit in the temple of God and proclaim that he is God before the return of Christ. As the video vividly shows, building a third temple on the Temple Mount is presently an impossibility. There will have to be some monumental shift in the Middle East before Muslims would allow that to happen. The video also assumes that a third temple must be built in order for there to be an “abomination of desolation” as predicted by Daniel and Jesus Christ. Jesus said that the “abomination of desolation” would be “standing in the holy place” (Matthew 24:15). It is assumed by everyone that “the holy place” will be a third temple on the Temple Mount. Is it possible that “the holy place” is somewhere else in Jerusalem other than the Temple Mount? However, if a third temple is not in existence with the conquering of Jerusalem by a false messiah, then it is likely that he will command that a third temple be built. Only when Jerusalem is occupied by the armies of the Beast, aka, King of the North, would circumstances change to allow the building of a third temple. Otherwise, as things are now, the Israeli government would be very foolhardy to attempt to provide even one square foot on the Temple Mount for Jewish worship. For that to happen, it will take the approval and backing of several Muslim nations. Even then, there would probably be a major Muslim backlash by those who did not agree with such a “profane” agreement with infidels. We certainly need to watch as events develop in the Middle East. Now is not the time to fall asleep when it comes to Bible prophecy and how we may be personally affected.
