    Then will I cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have hallowed for my name, will I cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a byword among all people: …

    The Temple is a spiritual one.

    “1 Peter 2:1–12 describes the spiritual house God is building. Jesus is the perfect foundation stone God has chosen for the house. Those who trust in Him are also living stones used to build the house. In addition, we individually serve as both the priests and the spiritual sacrifices, our lives offered to the builder. Thus we must live good lives, as strangers in the world preparing to go home to be with our Father, engaged in battle against our desire to sin.”

    the temple is spiritual, but the antichrist will try to fulfill the materialistic expectations that the Jews had of the messiah, a political leader who achieves global peace (without Christ) and builds the Jewish temple, in the same way that he can try to fulfill the Islamic prophecies about the imam mahdi who will also be a political leader who achieves global domination and brings world peace.

    I don’t ever see a third temple being built in Israel. I feel the Temple in scripture means the Church. Science in the future is heading towards more evil against our body and spirit. Satan wants to sit on Peter’s seat in order to destroy the holy temple of God. That temple lives inside of us.

    It’s not about a building. Those stones were already destroyed. The Antichrist is after the rock.

    In spite of Lies ... The Third (Brick and Mortar) Temple
    is NOT of the True Messiah:Jesus of Nazareth - Who shall return from the Sky..
    It's being actively peddled as being that - to Christians.. !
    It's NOT God's Temple! Those with Faith in Jesus/God ARE God's Temple!


    The Talmud is very often said/shown by some to be an extremely AntiChristian document..
    which came into existence CENTURIES AFTER Jesus' Crucifixion, Resurrection and Ascension
    That said, modern Rabbinical Judaism would indeed follow it.. .

    https://www1.cbn.com/cbnnews/world/...less-red-heifer-could-signal-the-third-temple

    It's been reported by some that It was sacrificed..
    Ashes .. strewn by a 'tent' which qualifies as a temple. Dedication Purification of The 3rd Temple

    But Why not?

    Not only would the recently re-instituted Sanhedrin!, and Netanyahu and Pompeo Disagree..
    But so would the very active Third Temple Institute in Israel !

    https://thirdtemple.org/en/

    +++

    All the accoutrements of the 3rd temple exist!

    https://free.messianicbible.com/fea...or-the-rebuilding-of-jerusalems-third-temple/

    +++++

    Ark of Covenant -
    The Ark is the Golden Covered "Box" with the Cherubim on top.
    It's built to house The (Mosaic) Covenant = 2 Stone Tablets - inscribed by and given to Moses - by God
    It opposes the New Covenant (God's Holy Spirit) enabled by Jesus..
    Whom was revealed at Pentecost!
    God's Spirit (and not Mosaic law) IS the one and only Way to Salvation!

    The Ark of the Covenant contained more than just the two stone tablets with the 10 Commandments on them. Per Hebrews 9:4 the Ark also contained the staff of Aaron (which had sprouted -- some sources say it started sprouting almonds) and a jar of Manna. In this, it was NOT in opposition, but instead a prefigurement of Jesus. The Ark was made of gold that was pure and flawless within, representing Mary. (Remember also that no one could touch the Ark without being killed; this prefigures Mary's perpetual virginity.) It contained the Words of the Law, which Jesus would fulfill; Aaron's sprouting staff representing new life, and the manna from heaven, representing the Bread of Life that would be Jesus.

    The Ark of the Covenant doesn't oppose the New Covenant. It is surely part of it. There is only one Covenant, that with Israel and the Church is the New Israel. The Jews who rejected the New Covenant when they crucified Christ implicitly rejected the Old Covenant as well, even if they didn't realise it. Therefore, they cannot be people of the Covenant until they re-embrace it.

    This new temple will only be a facsimile, a replica, with no more authority than the second temple in the last forty years before its destruction. The Talmud talks against itself when it declares that the tapers no longer changed colour after the time of the Crucifixion. They would only have a genuine Third Temple if the demonstrable sacrificial effects returned. This cannot happen as this sacrifice has been replaced by a 'Clean Oblation'. It'll just be a museum, a replica. The new Temple could only regain its original status via becoming a consecrated building that hosts the Mass.

    Yes, I know.
    And, the Tablets given to Moses within the Ark - are by far the most significant of its contents - and they are the Old Mosaic Covenant.
    What distinguishes them is God Himself inscribed them
    . - Ergo, there's a sort of paranormal quality about them.

    When Moses first brought them down off the mountain he encounterd Israelites DisObediently worshipping a Golden Bull Calf
    Moses broke them! God made another set - and instructed Moses on the building of the Ark - to carry them..

    Moving along.. the Ark was lost to the Philistines .. and ReCaptured by King David - who brought them back to Jerusalem
    God instructed David on building the 1st Temple - Also known as Solomon's Temple
    David's son Solomon built the Temple! which at its very heart - in the Holy of Holies - contained the Ark of the COVENANT! - God-Inscribed Tabota!

    The Ark and its contents 'vanished" circa 700 BC when once again Israel was DisObedient - and were exiled to Babylon,..
    Sacrificing Animals was a solid part of Pre-Exilic Israelites of Solomon's Temple!

    Around 500+ BC - the King of Babylon freed the Israelites and sanctioned the building of the 2nd Temple
    The Second Temple never contained the ARK of the Covenant
    ..
    And as Prophecied by Jesus - It was Destroyed by the Romans in 70 AD because of Disobediences of the Jewish Leadership of Jerusalem.

    ____________________________________________________

    The Greater Glory of the New Covenant -- 2 Cor 3 - SPIRIT, NOT LAW, BRINGS SALVATION

    7 Now if the ministry that brought death, which was engraved in letters on stone, came with glory, so that the Israelites could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of its glory, transitory though it was, 8 will not the ministry of the Spirit be even more glorious? 9 If the ministry that brought condemnation was glorious, how much more glorious is the ministry that brings righteousness! 10 For what was glorious has no glory now in comparison with the surpassing glory. 11 And if what was transitory came with glory, how much greater is the glory of that which lasts!

    12 Therefore, since we have such a hope, we are very bold. 13 We are not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face to prevent the Israelites from seeing the end of what was passing away. 14 But their minds were made dull, for to this day the same veil remains when the old covenant is read. It has not been removed, because only in Christ is it taken away. 15 Even to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts. 16 But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. 17 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 18 And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.


    GOD HIMSELF IS ALREADY THE TEMPLE OF ALL THOSE WHOM AS A SPIRITUAL BODY WITH CHRIST AT ITS HEAD - WORSHIP HIM IN SPIRIT

    John 5:43
    43" I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive."

    if this biblical verse is not talking about barabbas it is quite possible that it is talking about the antichrist being accepted by the Jewish people because of the third temple this does not prevent the abomination of desolation from occurring within our Church.

    IF I MAY.. In larger context. Jesus is speaking to the Jewish Leaders
    The Jewish leaders - were disobedient to Moses ~ and therefore to God.


    36 “I have testimony weightier than that of John. For the works that the Father has given me to finish—the very works that I am doing—testify that the Father has sent me. 37 And the Father who sent me has himself testified concerning me.

    You have never heard his voice nor seen his form, 38 nor does his word dwell in you, for you do not believe the one he sent. 39 You study the Scriptures diligently because you think that in them you have eternal life. These are the very Scriptures that testify about me, 40 yet you refuse to come to me to have life.

    41 “I do not accept glory from human beings, 42 but I know you. I know that you do not have the love of God in your hearts. 43 I have come in my Father’s name, and you do not accept me; but if someone else comes in his own name, you will accept him. 44 How can you believe since you accept glory from one another but do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?

    45 “But do not think I will accuse you before the Father. Your accuser is Moses, on whom your hopes are set. 46 If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about me. 47 But since you do not believe what he wrote, how are you going to believe what I say?”

    Hype and propaganda to scare people.

    Control using fear.

    Many people leave England in the summer seeking hotter temperatures.

    Ironically this so called heatwave is to last two whole days lol

    I always understood it as being antichrist. The False Prophet maybe too. The Jewish people did not recognize the time of their visitation and have listened to those who came in their own name ever since. The Church seems to be following a similar path right now. Those podcasts of Fr Ripperger's that Brian posted are a must-listen to know how we got where we are.

    Jesus is heavenly. God sent us His divine Son to earth. Imagine that. We have heaven here on earth already through the Eucharist and Holy Spirit. “Jesus referred to His body as the temple and if people destroy it He would rebuild it in 3 days. He DID by His resurrection. Book of Revelations referred to a time when God will not build any temple on earth, for He and the lamb are enough. He sent us His Holy Spirit to take residence in our hearts. Jesus became the new High Priest. The temple is a spiritual/symbolic meaning. In Ezekiel 47 we read about the river coming from the temple. It is an increasing river, getting larger farther away from the temple. Here we see God’s people, the Church, growing as the years go by.”
    “The temple in the OT was a physical building. In the NT, the temple (the place where God resides on earth) is the Church - the body of believers in Christ. There is no need for a 3rd temple because now our body, is the temple of God. Satan is a master illusionist. People are so preoccupied with looking for something specific, that they ignore the obvious that is smacking them right in the face.”
    Behind our warped science is the Antichrist. Satan wants to attack our body by creating and destroying humans. He wants us to blaspheme the Holy Spirit that dwells in us by accepting the horrors of abortion, cloning, transgender etc. It is possible for science to transplant a uterus to a male’s body, so he can get pregnant. Is society going to just sit back and let that happen? Because so far our own Pope seems to be rather lax on all these atrocities. I believe this is where it’s at. Not a 3rd physical temple that has measurements that don’t make any sense. The Temple has already been built. And the Antichrist wants to destroy it again.

    Yes... Generally speaking, MSM is full of hype and lies.

    However - those Brits whom I keep in touch with and respect their POV
    paint a far more difficult Current and especially Future situation than just this (yes V. Hot) Heatwave... (which extends beyond the UK (in the EU)
    with much of it connected with their out of control and poorly spoken of failing Economy replete with all of what that does to the Brits..

    PS -
    Heat? - we should realize that for the most part - Brits do not have AC..!
    Cold? We should realize that Brits and others shall most likely be very cold come this Winter .
    Even now, Brit Factories have been closing Big Time.
    BOJO may be going going gone.. But no one there can save the now estimated 100's of 1000's of closing Factories!​

    -----------------------------

    IN FACT, as I've seen it.. IMO, MSM has been downplaying the Woes (which are here - and?) are on the Big Increase.
    Not only in the UK - but also in the EU.. with 'big boy' Germany also worried very big time

    This following headline agrees with the problem .. but (as with everything it publishes re: Russia?) it purposely p0ints fingers in the wrong direction!

    25June Putin Is Pushing Germany’s Economy to the Breaking Point

    No... For months B4 the inevidable UKR/RUS brou-ha-ha commenced,
    - The US Pushed Germany (and other EU nations) to $ANCTION RUSSIA - including its Natural Gas Supplies.. which the EU Needs!
    For months upon months - Putin and Lavrov Warned US/NATO - and US/NATO complelely Ignored Russia - thinking that Russia would fold like a cheap suit.

    Russia's has not and shall not --- AND To put it nicely, Germany (and the EU, UK, US, ETC,) "bamboozled" themselves! ..

    The West's MSM has been playing an absurd and much ridiculed Juvenile Blame Game.. !
