Scholars have long recognized the metaphorical, spiritual meaning of this statement.The Bible says the veil of the temple was ripped from top
to bottom. I think it’s wiser not to spiritualize things away from what they author meant. He was obviously referring to a literal curtain to the literal holy of holies. It’s much more powerful as well.
For centuries the christians believed those events happened in 70 AD.
Why do you love the modern nation of Israel so much? It is highly anti-Christian.Maybe so, but after certain events happened, they realized their error. 1948 ring a bell? Up from the ashes like a miracle...
So yes they did believe like you say for a long time. And they were wrong for a long time. Those things did happen as prophesised but there's a lot more prophecy than that!

On Dec. 29, 1977, the Israeli parliament passed a law making it illegal for missionaries to proselytize Jews. What if America did that, making Christian preaching illegal? American Zionist Christians are so selective. It's OK if Israel does it?
Rabbi Ovadiah Yosef, considered a political moderate, issued a religious ruling that copies of the New Testament should be torn out of any edition of a Bible owned by a Jew. After the capture by Jewish forces of Jaffa on May 13, 1948, two days before Israel’s birth, there was desecration of Christian churches. Also, on Sept. 10, 1963, hundreds of ultra-orthodox Jews simultaneously attacked Christian missions in Jaffa, Haifa and Jerusalem. Far more accounts of violence to find online.
The Voice of the Martyrs lists Israel on its restricted nations map as a "hostile nation." (http://www.persecution.com/public/restrictednations.aspx) For good reason.
What about the U.S. Department of State? http://www.state.gov/j/drl/rls/irf/2012/nea/208392.htm "Most Jews opposed missionary activity directed at Jews, and some were hostile to Jewish converts to Christianity."
There much work and negotiations going on behind closed doors to allow the Temple to be built next to the Dome of the Rock since the Holy of Holies was most likely where the Dome of the Spirits is now.They won’t get the temple mount. It’s totally off limits. Won’t affect any plans God does although offering blood sacrifice for sin is now an abomination to God I’ve heard since Christ, the once and for all sacrifice.
Ignorance abounds on both sides of the Christian/Jew equation. Much harm has been throughout history by ignorant people in the name of God.Why do you love the modern nation of Israel so much? It is highly anti-Christian.

If it's not your appointed time, you will prevail. If it is your appointed time, they "win"......or so they think.I don't have any weird or unnatural kind of love for Israel. I understand that I am not here to judge Israel and that...they are called as God's chosen people. I respect that in reverance and fear to God. On that note, I love Isareli people as my neighbor. They are my fellow Brothers and Sisters on this planet. There's really no such thing as race. There is only different cultures. So we are one people under God. They are no worse than you or I.
Forgive me. Wah. These things must happen and come to pass. This is something that God is doing and it;s way over my head, lol. His ways are above my ways. His thoughts are above mine. Scripture says that these things must happen and come to pass. Most of them I think. There is a couple, if this/then I will do that type of things also.
None of those things should scare you. They are terrible things for sure, but one man can't really do a whole lot by himself. I know one thing. I am not out there persecutuing Christians or Jews or anyone. I understand that one day I may have the authorities knocking on my door because of my illegal Bible, and that I may have to fight them. If they bring a fight to you, then there's either fight or flight. And I think it's ok to fight.
All we have to do is to look to the animal kingdom. The smallest will stand up to the biggest because of their fierce spirits. Win by killing them or at least drive them away. I've seen videos of cats chasing off bears! And small dogs chasing off coyotes! Chickens have entirely too much spirit, lol. The way to win against chickens that wont let you walk by...is by kicking them like a football. If you don't kick them, you will lose!
It's outright persecution that is far greater than in the supposedly "godless" America that pastors like to rant about while simultaneously kissing Israel's boots.Ignorance abounds on both sides of the Christian/Jew equation.

Not all Jews hate Christians. There are numerous examples of Christians AND Jews collaborating for the common good. I was invited by Jews to participate in the Feast of Tabernacles in 07 as a gentile guest. This was in preparation for when all nations will be required to send representatives to Israel as prophesized in Zech. They told me they're conducting "dress rehearsals" for the real thing. I felt very welcome. Of course I know my place as adopted/grafted in.It's outright persecution that is far greater than in the supposedly "godless" America that pastors like to rant about while simultaneously kissing Israel's boots.
I never said all Jews hate Christians. However, the nation of Israel in general is hostile to Christianity.Not all Jews hate Christians.

You mean like Saudi Arabia whom we have an economic, social and military cooperative relations?I never said all Jews hate Christians. However, the nation of Israel in general is hostile to Christianity.
Once again, consider what the response would be if any other nation integrated all of these anti-Christian policies.
Yes, and Christians rail against Arab countries that persecute Christians. They attack the Arab and Islamic world while ignoring the problems of Israel just practically next door to the Arab countries.You mean like Saudi Arabia whom we have an economic, social and military cooperative relations?
Yes and there are some Christians who, due to greed, cozied up right along with the atheists/satanists who run the country when it comes to China.Yes, and Christians rail against Arab countries that persecute Christians.

I oppose all policies and nations that attack religious liberty for anyone - which means that I oppose Israel and the Arab countries - and China too:
America cozies up to China and licks their boots even though it is a very major persecutor of Christians and antagonist of religious and human liberties as a whole.
Say what now? You think America is run by Atheists and Satanists?Yes and there are some Christians who, due to greed, cozied up right along with the atheists/satanists who run the country when it comes to China.
No. They just say they are for political expediency.Say what now? You think America is run by Atheists and Satanists?
No. Not at all. Biden is a Catholic, just for an example. Most American political leaders are Christians of some form, or else Jews.
Yeah perhaps, certainly there's political pressure to be Christian. In a few cases these people are pretending. But for most, I have no reason to believe anything but that they're authentic.No. They just say they are for political expediency.
There are millions of freemasons in America and they have positioned themselves into very strategic positions of power. There are hundreds of thousands of them in Canada. Their number drops to just a few thousand in New Zealand.Yeah perhaps, certainly there's political pressure to be Christian. In a few cases these people are pretending.

But just because someone is not a Christian does not make them an Atheist and certainly not anything as specific as a Satanist.
You know nearly all the American Founders were freemasons?There are millions of freemasons in America and they have positioned themselves into very strategic positions of power. There are hundreds of thousands of them in Canada. Their number drops to just a few thousand in New Zealand.
