Rebuilding the Temple – AntiChrist

==================================================
Templars made replicas of Solomon's Temple all over America and Europe.
If we look at the capitol building as the rebuilt temple and the secret society of Masonic presidents [antichrist] then this prophesy is fulfilled.

Here’s a part of my article;

The Temple:
The bible says that the antichrist will reign from a “rebuilt†Solomon’s temple; recently a CBC news story revealed that the Manitoba legislature building in Winnipeg Canada is a replica of Solomon’s temple, When checking farther I found also that in fact the Capitol building in Washington DC is another [more elaborate] replica. The Bible speaks of a “New Worldâ€, a “New Heavenâ€, and a “New JerUSAlemâ€, should it be considered that the antichrist [or Christ] will reign from this location rather than from Palestine as many scholars say?
The 11th horn which blasphemes God comes out of the 7th head [Israel] which may relate to this temple in Washington which is a [enhanced] replica of Solomon’s Temple. $atan must Rule from such a temple.

Many presidents have been accused of being ‘antichrist’ from Wilson who sold America to the Federal Reserve to Nixon who shamed America in front of the whole world to Reagan who’s name was 666 and who killed many ppl on JAL flight 007, to Bush Jr who was accused of engineering 9-11 and who was accused twice of election fraud. But few stop to consider that in fact all presidents can be said to fit the role of antichrist because they sit on a throne in a temple like structure modeled after Solomon’s temple as St John predicted. In contrast these presidents might also be said to fit archetypes of Christ, as descriptions of both Christ and antichrist are very paradoxical and metaphorical.
The many geometrical signs and symbols incorporated into the design of WashingtonDC show elaborate planning from before the city’s foundation was laid.
The names of locations monuments and structures are copies of ancient sacred sites, the orientation of certain structures in DC are geared towards Virgo [the virgin] and the Center of Intelligence [CIA[ is located in Maryland Virginia [Land of Virgin Mary]
All of this [it is clear] was planned hundreds of years ago by people guarding powerful secrets.



The White House sits at the apex of an inverted pentagram, in front of the White House reveals a perfect Knights Templar cross, The four sides of the WashingtonMonument are aligned with the cardinal directions and at the ground level, each side of the monument measures 55.5 feet long (666 inches). The height of the obelisk is 555.5 feet, which is equal to 6,666 inches, the Whitehouse and the Capitol building are connected by the Masonic square and compass as well as the mystical Pythagorean Theorem. The street plan to the east of the Capitol building reveals another complete hexagram and a bird's-eye view of the Capitol resembles the figure of an owl. Guarding the entrance to the Capitol building is Nimrod (Ba'al) in the likeness of the Roman Mars, whom the Egyptians called Osiris, an upside down star (Satanic symbol) with the southern most point touching the White House. Located just north of this star is the Supreme Council 33° Temple, the place where Freemasons become 33rd Degree Masons. Also visible in the area of the U.S. Capitol Building is the symbol of the Freemasons; the square and compass. The top of the compass is made up of the streets surrounding the Capitol building. Making up the left leg of the compass is Pennsylvania Avenue which reaches in a straight line from the U.S. Capitol The top of the compass is made up of the streets surrounding the Capitol building. Making up the left leg of the compass is Pennsylvania Avenue which reaches in a straight line from the U.S. Capitol Building to the White House. The right leg of the compass is partially made up by the section of Maryland Avenue that's between the U.S. Capitol Building and the modern day Federal Aviation Administration building. If you were to continue drawing a straight line while following the angle of Maryland Avenue, the line will end at the northern edge of the Jefferson Memorial which is directly South of the White House.

The New World
[Rev. 7:9; 21:1-8,21:24-26]
The house of Israel was destined to inherit America.
[Gen: Ch 48] and western Europe.
America has been called The New World since it was discovered by Columbus. The bible states that there will be “a New Worldâ€, “a New Heaven, a New Jerusalemâ€, and also several verses indicate that the people of this [future] “Promised Land†[flowing with Milk and Honey] “Shall speak with new tongues†–[Mark 16:17].
Because Christianity spread northwards from Jerusalem it is obvious that it was introduced to peoples with new languages [tongues], including Yiddish/German [2 languages which are identical in many ways], French, and of course the best language of all English [a compilation of Hebrew/German structure, Latin and Greek].
Canada has been the world’s number one source of milk product exportation and of Cow sperm which is the highest quality sperm for fertilization of ca milk cattle around the globe, Canada is also one of the world’s largest exporters of honey.
The bible states that the gospel of Christ will be spread throughout the whole earth before the world can end. The internet has spread not just Christianity but virtually all religions throughout the world. The world has ended!

The New Heaven
America’s exploration of space [I believe] constitutes “The New Heavenâ€. Also America constitutes “The New Heaven†as a paradise on earth [kind of heaven] as this is/was the land which the persecuted peoples of Europe could come to to escape the domination and enslavement by a banking cartel of evil men who had a strangle hold on Europe.
These men hate freedom and have attempted to get a foothold in America by setting up the Federal Reserve.
 
The New JerUSAlem
Wouldn't then the "New JerUSAlem" be the power
center of the New World (WashingtonDC)? Wouldn't
this New JerUSAlem be the place where the antichrist
sets up his/her/it's throne ? Revelation speaks of the
New World having 12 gates, possibly the 12 sea ports
which stretch from Seattle to Chicago.


I see a lot of the end time prophesies that haven't been fulfilled yet (the temple rebuilt, the antichrist rising up, etc.) so I don't believe judgment day is here yet. But judgment day could come any day for any of us, so to speak...we don't know how long we will live on this earth. So better be ready anyway!

So those who maintain that Judgment day cannot be May 21st 2011 [i don’t say it is or isn’t] due to unfulfilled prophesies are possibly relying on their church teachers to inform them on things they refuse to admit. Being that all the prophesies are fulfilled.

I'm still looking to the prophecy on Damascus' destruction to be fulfilled.

The entire chapter of Isaiah 57 appears imminent.

NLT
1 This message came to me concerning Damascus: “Look, the city of Damascus will disappear!
It will become a heap of ruins.

12-14
12 Listen! The armies of many nations
roar like the roaring of the sea.
Hear the thunder of the mighty forces
as they rush forward like thundering waves.
13 But though they thunder like breakers on a beach,
God will silence them, and they will run away.
They will flee like chaff scattered by the wind,
like a tumbleweed whirling before a storm.
14 In the evening Israel waits in terror,
but by dawn its enemies are dead.
This is the just reward of those who plunder us,
a fitting end for those who destroy us.
 
If we look at the capitol building as the rebuilt temple and the secret society of Masonic presidents [antichrist] then this prophesy is fulfilled.
If we look at my tool-shed as the rebuilt temple then I'm the antichrist and this prophecy is fulfilled.
:onfire

But how do we know it's not your tool-shed???:squinting

It's Isaiah 17, and it was fulfilled long ago.:study
 
continuing on the subject topic ...

what most scholars say about the antichrist is this 'man of sin' will offer a plan for peace to a world on the verge of destruction ... note this text may refer to the peace activist in ameruca in the 1960s, who were funded by the russian KGB under Gorbachev.

1 Thessalonians 5:3
For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them.




Mikhail Gorbachev Interview
Russian funded peace movement in America


Watching an interview with ex-president Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev (of Russia) some information came up which I remembered hearing back in the 70's from a lot of rednecks who were criticizing hippies and peaceniks cause they said that all this human-rights activism and peace protesting was financed by the communists as part of a plot to divide the American public politically, and break their military resolve on standing up to the soviet union. When I was a hippie and a peacenik in the 70's and I refused to believe this at the time, seeing it as rightwing-conservative-hawk anti-commie paranoid propaganda.

However then on Knowledge network in Nov 06 I watched this interview with my parents as Gorbachev [now retired and politically a dead duck] recited some of his memoirs recounting the Cold War Years and other Soviet/Russian history.

He recounted how during the cold war era he was 2nd in command of military intelligence under then president Nikita Khrushchev and how the Soviets spent millions of dollars in America to finance dissent, the peace movement [end the war with Russia in Vietnam], human rights, the free speech movement, Black Panthers and Weather Underground in America as well as investing money in the entertainment industry [best way to get a message across] as part of a plan to divide the resolve of the USA to go to war with Russia. Creating dissent in America] KGB agents were highly active throughout collage campuses as well to find groups who would take graft from the KGB to further their cause.

Nikita Khrushchev is quoted as saying back then that; “In order to destroy America all that was needed was to break the family unitâ€, the motto “question authority†was all about rebelling against parents and elders who deserve respect for their accumulated knowledge thru generations of social evolutionary development.

Hence the ‘counter-culture’ revolution wasn’t what ‘hippies’ thought, being largely funded by Russian Intelligence psy-ops.

These peace activist were backed by Russian Intel
The bible says both in Daniel and in Thessalonians ‘’For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them’’.
This prediction may well apply to this era of peace activism and dissent by youth rebelling against authority.
 
Yea, well Biblical Judaism ended in AD70.

1Thess.5:3 happened a long time ago to Israel after the flesh, in the 1st century AD great tribulation throughout the then "inhabited world" (Roman empire)

So I find no temple in it...........in what you say? In the New Jerusalem- the church universal on earth.
 
A simple answer to will there be a "natural" rebuilt temple in Jerusalem that is ordained of God is truly simple.

We read, "Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom..." (Mat 27:50-51a) Sacrifice and oblation made to cease.

Again, in the words of our Lord Jesus, "And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. 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." (Mat 24:1-2) We hear the Lord declare the destruction of the natural temple that was to take place in 70 A.D.

If we couple that with the principle stated by the Apostle Paul, "For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor." (Gal 2:18)

We then discover that God would not and could not cause a natural temple with the re-institution of natural sacrifices to be rebuilt. For, the Lord Himself would never "...build again the things which I destroyed..," and He most certainly is the One who brought about the destruction of the natural temple and the bringing to naught of the sacrificial offerings.

If there happened to be a natural temple built at all there certainly would not be anything about it that the Lord would call "holy." It would be an abomination in God's sight.
 
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua]One of the most commonly presented problems by critics of premillennial literal interpretation is found in association with Ezekiel' s temple vision (Ezekiel 40- 48). These rivals argue that Ezekiel 43:13, 27; 45:15, 17, 20 refers to the sacrifices in a would be future Temple as literally making atonement. This is true! The critics believe this to be a blasphemous contradiction to the finished work of Christ as presented in Hebrews 10.[/FONT][FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua]
[/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua]Like any so-called " problem" arising in the mind of an antagonists there are answers and the solution to their objection lies in the very details they believe to be the source of difficulty. In the process of providing an explanation, note the following facts and observations about the Ezekiel passage:[/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua]
[/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua] [/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua]• The purpose for a Temple throughout Scripture has been to establish a location upon earth- which is under the curse of sin- for the presence of God that reveals through its ritual God' s great holiness. God' s plan for Israel, His earthly people, includes a relation to them through a Temple. Currently the church is God' s spiritual Temple made of living stones (1 Corinthians 3:16-17; Ephesians 2:19-22), until the rapture. The millennium will return history to a focus upon Israel and will continue to be a time in which sin will be present upon the earth. Thus, God will include a new Temple, a new priesthood, a new Law, etc., at this future time because He will be present in Israel and still desires to teach that holiness is required to approach Him. This is contrasted with the fact that no Temple will exist in eternity (Revelation 21:22) because God and the Lamb are its temple and there will be no sin in heaven, thus no need for Temple ritual.[/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua]
[/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua] [/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua]• The painstaking detail in Ezekiel 40- 48 is similar to the instruction given to Moses for building of the Tabernacle and then to others for building the Solomonic Temple. Such detail is meaningless unless taken literally as were the Tabernacle and first two Temples. If the detail was intended to be symbolic, the symbols are never explained, as is usually the case with genuine biblical symbolism. Because no textual basis exists for a non-literal interpretation, those attempting such explanations become subjective in their many and various guesses about the meaning of the passage.[/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua]
[/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua] [/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua]• It must be remembered that the Levitical sacrifices of the Mosaic system are said by the Bible to " make atonement" as well (for example, Leviticus 4:20, 26, 31, 35, etc.). If these sacrifices in the past actually atoned for the people' s sins, which, of course, they did not, then they would be equally blasphemous in light of Christ' s perfect sacrifice. Hebrews 10:4 tells us, " it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins." Furthermore, there would have been no need for Christ' s once and for all atoning sacrifice if these past acts did the job.[/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua]
[/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua] [/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua]• The sacrifices of the millennial Temple will not be a return to the Mosaic Law, since that Law has forever been fulfilled and discontinued through Christ (Romans 6:14-15; 7:1-6; 1 Corinthians 9:20-21; 2 Corinthians 3:7-11; Galatians 4:1-7; 5:18; Ephesians 2- 3; Hebrews 7:12; 8:6-7, 13; 10:1-14). Instead it will be a new Law, containing a mixture of Mosaic type new laws under the jurisdiction of the New Covenant (Hebrews 7:12). The millennial system will have Jesus the Messiah physically present instead of the Shechinah glory presence in conjunction with the ark of the covenant; a new Law instead of the Mosaic Law; a new priestly order from the sons of Zadok (Ezekiel 40:46; 43:19; 48:11) instead of the Levites; a new Temple measuring one mile square (Ezekiel 40:48- 41:26) instead of the much smaller Solomonic model.[/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua]
[/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua] [/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua]• Millennial sacrifices are mentioned as a " matter of fact" by the major prophets of the Old Testament as future occurrences. At least four other prophets join Ezekiel in affirming a sacrificial system in a millennial Temple (Isaiah 56:7; 66:20-23; Jeremiah 33:18; Zechariah 14:16-21; Malachi 3:3-4). This further supports the literal interpretation of Ezekiel. Why would five of Israel's prophets mention these sacrifices if they will not take place?[/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua]
[/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua] [/FONT]
[FONT=Palatino,Book Antiqua]• Many who take a literal interpretation of the Millennial Temple and sacrifices believe that one aspect of these acts will serve as a memorial to Christ' s once-for-all atoning work at His first coming. Yet, critics believe this to be a flawed conclusion. Support for a future memorial aspect can be seen in the fact that our current observation of the Lord' s Supper includes this aspect (1 Corinthians 11:23-26). Under the Mosaic system- which looked ahead- many times various Temple sacrifices are specifically called " memorials" (Exodus 30:16; Leviticus 2:2, 9; 5:12; 6:15; 24:7; Numbers 5:15, 18, 26). Such terminology could in fact be the basis for our current church age understanding of remembering the Lord' s death adopted by Paul. The Mosaic memorial aspect would clearly support viewing future Temple sacrifices in this way, as millennial believers look back upon Christ's sacrificial provision.[/FONT]

:thumbsup

1Co 15:46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.

and afterward that which is natural; ? ........ nope

1Co 15:53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

Back to corruptible? .... nope
 
God has seven years left to deal with Israel. The Church can't be here when He turns His clock back to before Christ! Israel will return to the sacrificial system. It has already begun making concrete plans for this, unknowingly. The Cohens or priestly tribe have been notified to purchase their robes, already made in the thousands. The sanctuary implements are being forged and created---etc.

It isn't corruption. It is Israel living yet in her pre-Messiah time, praise God.

God is going to bring these His people to the knowledge of their Messiah, once and for all at this coming time! In the end, at the close of the 7-year Tribulation, they who survive and have received the knowledge of their Messiah, will see Him coming with His Bride, and rejoice! What a DAY!

 
Joh 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

Heb 7:16 Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life.
Heb 7:17 For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.


1Pe 1:18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;
1Pe 1:19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb


Eph 5:2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.

Heb 9:23 It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
Heb 9:24 For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:
Heb 9:25 Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;
Heb 9:26 For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
 
A simple answer to will there be a "natural" rebuilt temple in Jerusalem that is ordained of God is truly simple.

Flawed indeed. If we have a memorial in the Lords supper, why should we revert back to a temple and create another memorial. The quicker we get rid of 'new temple' heresy the better.

It is not possible to have 'literal sin offerings' that are memorials.
 
Yup.

It is not possible to have 'literal sin offerings' that are memorials.

Amen. And as this topic is discussing building a Temple maybe we should take a look at what the Scriptures say with respect to building a temple.

[FONT=Georgia, serif]The Apostle Peter spoke on this wise with respect to where God dwells, “Howbeit the most High dwells not in temples made with hands; as says the prophet, Heaven is My throne, and earth is My footstool: what house will you build Me? says the Lord: or what is the place of My rest? (Acts 7:48-49)[/FONT]

[FONT=Georgia, serif]First, we SEE before the crucifixion...[/FONT]

[FONT=Georgia, serif]John 2:19-21 - “Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this Temple, and in three days I will raise it up.Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and will you rear it up in three days? But He spoke of the temple of His body.â€[/FONT]

[FONT=Georgia, serif]Then we READ after the resurrection...[/FONT]

[FONT=Georgia, serif]1Corinthians 3:16-17 - “Know you not that you ARE the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple you ARE.â€[/FONT]

[FONT=Georgia, serif]1Corinthians 6:19 - “What? know you not that your body IS the temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which you have of God, and you are not your own?â€[/FONT]

[FONT=Georgia, serif]2Corinthians 6:16 - “And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? for you ARE the temple of the living God; as God has said, I will dwell IN them, and walk IN them; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.â€[/FONT]

[FONT=Georgia, serif]Ephesians 2:19-22 - “Now therefore you are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of God; and are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief corner stone; in whom all the building fitly framed together grows unto an holy temple in the Lord: in whom you also ARE built together [/FONT] [FONT=Georgia, serif]for an habitation of God through the Spirit.â€[/FONT]

[FONT=Georgia, serif]1Peter 2:5 - “You also, as lively stones, ARE built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.â€[/FONT]

[FONT=Georgia, serif]1Peter 2:9-10 - “But you ARE a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that you should show forth the praises of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light: which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.â€[/FONT]


[FONT=Georgia, serif]By the Scriptures the saints ARE the Temple the Lord is building in these last days, and that being the case, shouldn't this be the one we are centering our attention on?

As a further thought, it was stated in a previous post, with respect to Revelation 21:22 that in the New Jerusalem there is no Temple but we see it written, "...for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it..." There may be some things to be discovered here ...

The bible says that the antichrist will reign from a “rebuilt†Solomon’s temple;


Where does the Bible say that? Chapter and verse, please. :thumbsup
