I have answered many questions on the forum. The problem is when someone wants to argue something like "what is air" I refuse to get bogged down in what many times SEEMS to be a side trail OFF the topic.
And many times I give an answer that IS my answer. Someone disagrees with it. Then they throw out the same question over and over when I have already given my answer. They reject my answer. Fine. Just dont say I wont answer questions.
On Doms demand he makes about a third temple I have commented on it in threads and I have been pretty consistent that I'm not sure one need be built.
Heres what I have always been dogmatic about concerning the end time.
2 Thess 2:1-4
1Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, 2That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. 3Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
The fact that the rapture wont happen until this takes place. There will be a temple. No one should be teaching Jesus can come until after this man of sin comes. If they do they are a deceiver. I see 2 other alternatives to a rabbinic 3rd temple.
1. Jerusalem itself.
2. A temple the man of sin builds for his honor, calling HIMSELF GOD.
But...I am not ruling out the Jews will build a Temple or at least some facsimile of one. If one begins to be built by them then I will believe it is the temple that marks the last days.
Its like the 70 weeks. I have said several times here I'm not sure the 70 weeks has a gap in them. I was trying to listen on this latest thread and see if I could gain anything from what I was hearing to what I already have heard.
Yet on the forum I am considered a "dispensationlist" or whatever name is being used. Maybe I cant fully explain why I think the 70 weeks need not be part of the end time scenario yet. At this point I dont think it affects what I believe.
