Will the Temple be Rebuilt Before the Second Coming?
by Paul Sides

I was recently condemned by a guy named Pastor Mark (http://www.remnantofyhwh.com/) for my understanding of September 13, 2007... why? Because he believes the 3rd Temple must be rebuilt prior leading to 3.5 years before the second coming.  I contested and he condemned me with no further defense...
Whatever. Just sit back and watch!  I'll forgive you when your interpretation fails.  You're too soon. You need to know Yahshua the Messiah of Israel!  Your false prophetic interpretation will not suffice to cover the multitude of your sins.  Repent of your transgressions, please!
Pastor Mark

 
Allow me to provide in depth SCRIPTURAL support that Pastor Mark and all other Eschatology Scholars are WRONG when he said:
"Once the Temple is rebuilt, the final 3-1/2 years of Daniel's last week will begin!!!  for the anti-Messiah will "sit in the qodesh place" at a Passover allowing 3-1/2 years to take us to the 7th Moon Feasts of Yom Teruah which will be the return of Meshiakh at the "last trumpet".
Will the false messiah "sit" in a physical Temple in Jerusalem or will an IMAGE be made to "STAND" in the Holy Place?
Matthew 24
3 As Yahshua was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. "Tell us," they said, "when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?"...15"So when you see standing in the holy place 'the abomination that causes desolation,' spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader understand...
Click on the following link to PROVE via Scripture that the false messiah is an image of a corruptible man that is erected in the "holy place" which is the hearts of man in the body of man which is the Temple of YHVH, and that happens at the VERY END of his last kingdom. The abomination that causes desolation.
 
Does the false messiah rebuild the 3rd Temple, commit the Abomination of Desolation leading to 42 months of world domination (peace)?  Where in Scripture does it say this?  Does Scripture REALLY say that 'sacrifices' 42 months prior to the return of Yahshua or that what is removed is Michael?  Does Scripture REALLY say there is a time of peace or is war determined until the very end?  Does Scripture say the false messiah builds a physical Temple?  Does the Scripture say the false messiah rebuilds the 3rd Temple or do the sons of YHWH led by Yahshua after his return?
 
Scripture proves the Transgression of Desolation begins the Great Trib, not the Abomination of Desolation... Transgression of Desolation vs. Abomination of Desolation
Daniel 9 (Amplified Bible)

    11Yes, all Israel has transgressed Your law, even turning aside that they might not obey Your voice. Therefore the curse has been poured out on us and the oath that is written in the Law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against Him.

    12And He has carried out intact His words which He threatened against us and against our judges [the kings, princes, and rulers generally] who ruled us, and He has brought upon us a great evil; for under the whole heavens there has not been done before [anything so dreadful] as [He has caused to be] done against Jerusalem.

    13Just as it is written in the Law of Moses as to all this evil [that would surely come upon transgressors of the Torah], so it has come upon us. Yet we have not earnestly begged for forgiveness and entreated the favor of the YHVH, that we might turn from our iniquities and have understanding and become wise in Your truth (Torah).

Isaiah 24: 1-6

The Earth is polluted by its inhabitants - They have committed the Transgression of Desolation (transgressed the Torah, changed the Holy Feasts to Christopagan Holidays, and broken the Everlasting Covenant  of the Sabbath changing it to the pagan Sunday) - Therefore the Curse found in the Torah devours the whole Earth, the inhabitants of Earth will be burned up,and few men left.

Daniel 8:12

12And the host [God's people] was given [by YHVH over to Satan] together with the continual (defense of the Host provided by Michael the Archangelbecause of the Transgression of Desolation [of God's people--their abounding irreverence, ungodliness, lack of piety, and transgression of His Feast, Torah, and Sabbath]

Scripture proves it is Michael the Archangel that is removed NOT "sacrifices"
Daniel 12:1 (Amplified Bible)
 1AND AT that time [3.5 years prior to the end] Michael shall arise (and ascend to the Throne of YHWH to defeat Satan Revelation 12), the great [angelic] prince who (tamiyd, continually stretches out his wings and) defends and has charge of your [YHVH's] people. And there shall be a time of trouble, straitness, and distress (42 months) such as never was since there was a nation till that time. But at that time your people shall be delivered, everyone whose name shall be found written in the Book [not having the 3 Witness of 1 John in the Book of Eternal Life].
Daniel 10:21 (Amplified Bible)
21But I will tell you what is inscribed in the writing of truth or the Book of Truth. There is no one who holds with me and strengthens (tamiyd, continually stretches out and defends) himself against these [hostile spirit forces] except Michael, your prince [national guardian angel].

2 Thessalonians 2:7

7 For the mystery of lawlessness (Transgression of the Law or Torah, Transgression of Desolation) does already work. Only there is one (the Archangel Michael) who restrains now, until he [Michael] is taken out of the way [from defending the Holy People because of this lawlessness] (reference Daniel 8:10-14, Daniel 12:1 and Revelation 12:1).

Scripture proves the Abomination of Desolation occurs at the end of the 42 month reign of the 4th Kingdom - resulting in the immediate death and defeat of the false messiah by the returning King Yahshua

Daniel 8

23And at the latter end of their [4th] kingdom [end of the Great Tribulation], when the transgressors [the apostate people of God who committed the Transgression of Desolation causing the Great Tribulation] have reached the fullness [of their wickedness, taxing the limits of YHWH's mercy], a [shadow] king of fierce countenance and understanding dark trickery and craftiness shall stand up [an image of a man erected in the hearts of man and worshipped as God stopping the oblation in heaven, see Abomination of Desolation].

Daniel 11

40And at the time of the end [of the 4th Kingdom and Great Tribulation] the king of the South shall push at and attack him [The army of the Beast], and the king of the North shall come against him [The army of the Beast] like a whirlwind, with chariots and horsemen and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries and shall overflow and pass through. 41He (The army of the Beast) shall enter into the Glorious Land [ Israel ] and many shall be overthrown.

Daniel 11

45And he (The army of the Beast) shall pitch his palatial tents between the seas and the glorious holy Mount [ Zion ]; yet he shall come to his end with none to help him.

Daniel 11:4 (Amplified Bible)
4And as soon as he has fully arisen (all those who are to commit the Abomination of Desolation are complete), his [the 4th] kingdom shall be broken [destroyed by Yahshua's coming] and divided toward the four winds of the heavens, but not to his posterity, nor according to the dominion which he ruled, for his kingdom shall be torn out and uprooted and go to others (sons of YHWH who follow YHVH/Yahshua/Sabbath/Passover) to the exclusion of these (who follow Trinity/Jesus/Sunday/Easter).   
1 Corinthians 15 (Amplified Bible)
    24After that comes the end (the completion), when He (Yahshua) delivers over the kingdom to YHWH the Father after rendering inoperative and abolishing every [other] rule and every authority and power (that elevates itself above YHVH, The Most High).
Matthew 24
3 As Yahshua was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. "Tell us," they said, "when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?"...15"So when you see standing in the holy place 'the abomination that causes desolation,' spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader understand...
Scripture proves that the false The Armies of the Beast pitches TENTS, there is no Temple.

Daniel 11

45And he shall pitch his palatial tents between the seas and the glorious holy Mount [ Zion ];

 

Scripture proves there is NO "time" of peace at the end, but war and desolations on top of the Temple mount decreed by YHWH until the VERY END...
Daniel 9:26
Even until the end, war and desolations (plural) are determined.
If WAR and DESOLATIONS are decreed until the very end, then when does the PEACE reign?..  When Yahshua returns to establish His Kingdom!  And ONLY a REMNANT or TENTH shall survive!
All this speaks of the time when the cities and the land 'will again be laid waste'.  Isaiah, ch.6, is telling Isaiah to take these very words to his people (V8-10).
Isaiah 6:11
V11 "Then I said, "FOR HOW LONG, O Lord?" And He answered: "UNTIL the cities lie ruined and without inhabitant, UNTIL the houses are left deserted and the fields ruined and ravaged, UNTIL the LORD has sent everyone far away and the land is utterly forsaken. And though a tenth remains in the land, it will AGAIN be laid waste. But as the terebinth and oak leave stumps when they are cut down, so the HOLY SEED will be the STUMP in the land."
But YHVH speaks of an event after this... after the world is laid waste and only a tenth survives, in fact immediately after this: the city will be rebuilt!
Jer 31:38
"The days are coming," declares the LORD, "When this city (Jerusalem) will be rebuilt for Me from the Tower of Hananel to the corner gate. The measuring line will stretch from there straight to the hill of Gareb and then turn to Goah. The whole valley on the east as far as the corner of the Horse Gate, will be holy to the LORD. THE CITY WILL NEVER AGAIN BE UPROOTED OR DEMOLISHED."
The Tower of Hananel stood at the NW corner of the Temple Mount. The Kidron Valley, the Corner Gate and the Horse Gate show us that the boundaries described are the Temple Mount. What the scriptures tell us is: The cities and the land will be 'laid waste', but the city of Jerusalem, and more particularly the Mount of Zion (the Temple Mount) will be rebuilt for God. Ezekiel 40 to 48 describe what is to be built there - and this building has never been built to this present day! When it is rebuilt it 'WILL NEVER BE UPROOTED OR DEMOLISHED.' The Temple will be rebuilt, though not as gloriously as the Temple built by Solomon, but it will be filled with glory:
Hag 2:6-9
"This is what the LORD Almighty says: 'In a little while I will once more shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the dry land. I will shake all nations, and the desired of all nations will come, and I will fill this house with glory,' says the LORD Almighty. 'The silver is mine and the gold is mine,' declares the LORD Almighty. The glory of this present house will be greater than the glory of the former house,' says the LORD Almighty. 'And IN THIS PLACE I WILL GRANT PEACE,' declares the LORD Almighty."

But PEACE is not granted until AFTER the very end...

Daniel 9:26
Even until the end, war and desolations (plural) are determined.

Yahshua returns, resurrects the sons of YHWH from the 4 corners and THEY rebuilt the 3rd Temple!  And THEN peace is granted!!!

It should be noted that Zerubbabel didn't build a temple at that time. What he built was a tabernacle after he had prepared the site. The Jewish nation are today speaking of building the THIRD temple. The first was built by Solomon and the second by Herod. The THIRD Temple will be built by the Levites but others will come from far away (Yahshua will resurrect the sons of YHWH who REBUILT THE TEMPLE!) to help: Zech 6:15 "Those WHO ARE FAR AWAY will come and help to build the Temple of the LORD, and you will KNOW that the LORD Almighty has sent me to you. This will happen if you diligently obey the LORD your God." Beloved brethren in Christ - this is your challenge! You will only be there if you 'DILIGENTLY OBEY the LORD your God.' At the appropriate time, you will know what God requires of you. Notice that 'in this place' God says, 'I will grant peace.'

Hag 2:6-9
"This is what the LORD Almighty says: 'In a little while I will once more shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the dry land. I will shake all nations, and the desired of all nations will come, (to rebuilt the 3rd Temple) and I will fill this house (3rd Temple) with glory,' says the LORD Almighty. 'The silver is mine and the gold is mine,' declares the LORD Almighty. The glory of this present house will be greater than the glory of the former house,' says the LORD Almighty. 'And IN THIS PLACE I WILL GRANT PEACE,' declares the LORD Almighty."

 
What about Ezekiel's Temple Vision?
 
Ezekiel's Temple vision begins in Chapter 40 AFTER the tribulation is over.  In the progression of Ezekiel's visions, he laid out the exact timeline as I understand it that is to unfold in the End Times PRIOR to the 3rd Temple being rebuilt:
  • Chapter 34 - Description of False Shepherds/True Shepherd - Description of Christian Pastors that will struck down, the sheep scattered to be re-gathered by The True Shepherd...
  • Chapter 35 - Judgment on Edom (Palestinians/Edomites) for attacking Israel and dividing the land, they will be utterly destroyed
  • Chapter 36 - Judgment on all the nations who participated in dividing the Land of Israel.
  • Chapter 36:8-38 - Israel returns to YHWH - The Seal is given out, the Elect are cultivated from Earth
  • Chapter 37 - THE FIRST RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD and the Re-Unification of both Houses of Israel to possess Earth in preparation for the final conflict to liberate the Earth.
  • Chapter 38 - The Final Battle of Armageddon as the armies of Earth attack Jerusalem at the 3rd Siege of Daniel
  • Chapter 39 - THE GREAT AND TERRIBLE DAY... The Earth is devastated, the armies of Earth destroyed, YHWH's Holy Name WILL NEVER BE PROFANED AGAIN... All nations will know and worship YHWH (vs. 7)... This is THE GREAT AND TERRIBLE DAY OF YHWH (vs. 8)... for 7-years (a Sabbath Week) where the Earth rests and regenerates (we don't burn trees) and the sons of YHWH gather the spoils of war.  The first 7-months, we will burying the dead after the Great and Terrible Day of YHWH.  The massive slaughter of the unrighteous serves as a sacrifice to YHWH.  YHWH again restores the fortunes of Jacob, and on the entire House of Israel and we live securely in the land for a 1,000 years.
THEN COMES THE REBUILT TEMPLE... After the false teachers struck down, Edomites are judged, nations of Earth are judged, the Shema is given out, the saints are resurrected, the armies of YHWH led by Yahshua destroy the armies of Earth, and the Great and Terrible DAY occurs and we enter the Millennial Kingdom... THEN comes the rebuilt 3rd Temple as we have now entered the Millennial Kingdom.
  • Chapter 40 - Measuring the Temple
  • Chapter 41 - Building the Temple
  • Chapter 42 - Chamber in the Outer Court
  • Chapter 43 - YHWH's Glory returns to the Temple
  • Chapter 44 - Duties of the Temple Priests
  • Chapter 45 - Land of the Temple Priests
  • Chapters 46-48 - The land is restored, water flows from the Temple and turns the salt water oceans to fresh water etc. etc.
