I have thought for some time the temple will not be built. Is it possible? Yes. 100% possible? No. Because as you said we are also a temple if we make ourselves well before God. Having oil and a candle that shines. But the question begs is the translation for the AC sitting/sat/sits/is seated/ etc
How does one sit causing that posture to act like God in someone else’s heart? Or his own? As Satan lifted up his heart and wanted to be above the clouds, perhaps lifting up your heart is a precursor.
Regardless, the power of the Holy people must be shattered. Evangelizing. It has to be stopped. Prayer. Has to be stopped. Faith in Christ has to be stopped. Without those 3, Christ, prayer and doing his work the world has no chance. Now, if there are empty Catholic Churches, empty Baptist, Pentecostal, Assemblies of God, Non denominational, etc....what religions group is left that is growing?
Remember Christ said if they are not against us, they are for us. Any group or person not against Christ is for Christ. But yes, there are opposing doctrines. Some may be sinful. Make no mistake, they still love Christ. But who doesn’t love Christ? Does a religion exist that actually detest the thought of a son of God?

venge I have done a lot of research on the word Anthropos in Greek for man or mankind. Here is the post that goes in depth in another thread. "3 Let 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; 4 Who 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. 5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?" It is interesting that the ESV translation translates the word to "that" instead of "the." In the greek it is definitely the (ho). NASB Version: Let no one in any way deceive you, for [it will not come] unless the apostasy (This is interesting the word apostasy/apostasia is translated this way. I know this word has been discussed frequently. My keyword study bible has some very interesting details regarding this word. In some other translations it is translated as the falling away or even departure. However it notes the verb that is used for this word is to place oneself away or stand away from someone. Not in the sense of removal either, but as a distance. It is used to mean the purpose of not incurring the dangers of that association. It states the understanding behind this was people who called themselves Christians on the outside, but once persecution started, these people no longer associated themselves as a Christian. In other words, those who are not really faithful.) comes first, and the man (or men as in humans/mankind?) of lawlessness (sin or opposed to Christ) is revealed, the son (this is also used for descendant (figuratively) anyone sharing the same nature as their Father.

The pharisees/unbelievers who had no faith and relied on their works and status to be "holy" or do not believe at all) of destruction (this word is interesting as well in the Greek: apṓleia ("perdition") does not imply "annihilation" but instead "loss of well-being" rather than being. Not so much as a destroyed type of destruction.) , 4who opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, displaying himself as being God. I hope I am not coming across as being combative or anything of that sort, and I am no language expert. I just think there is a whole lot more to these verses than what is being understood. And I think from the above details given, that is somewhat clear. It is also interesting to note that anytime the word himself it is used in one of these verses, the verb in the language is actually neuter, not defining male or female. That is something I am looking more into. In regards to the Holy Spirit and our bodies being the temple of God and Paul being the one who is stating this in his letters that if he is referring to the temple of God wouldn't we naturally assume that is what he means? In other passages when Paul goes to the temple in Jerusalem, the word that is used is specifically for the temple (hieron) in Jerusalem or a physical location. However when he describes us as being the temple of God, he uses a different word entirely (naos: a temple, a shrine, that part of the temple where God himself resides. properly, a sanctuary (divine dwelling-place); a temple (sacred abode), the place of divine manifestation.) This is also the same word he uses to describe the one of lawlessness who is sitting in the temple of God in 2 Thess. 2:4. God will not be dwelling in the future/third temple that the Jewish people are trying to build. Naos only refers to a temple that God actually dwelling in. Hieron just means a temple building. Just some opinions and researching that I have done regarding these verses. Editing to comment on the quoted Revelation verses. The same word NAOS is used in those verses as well, not a physical temple building. So would that make the temple being measured us?
Read more: unsealed.boards.net/user/112/recent#ixzz5CnJKjCSt I did the same study on the two words for temple. I wrote this back in January about the temple in Revelation. Yes, I think it's us, and I think it gives further support for a pre-trib rapture. We are sealed and protected while the outer court is trampled. Note that I still thought the tribulation was 7 years at the time and was having a hard time understanding the 3rd woe after the witnesses ascend... I was questioning whether the witnesses were in the second half because I didn't see 3.5 years of material after they finish their testimony. Now I think the tribulation is just 1335 days total, with the witnesses comprising days 1-1260, but I will make a thread on that soon. unsealed.boards.net/post/19255/thread

Not following your thought on this. You think Daniels 70th week is not 7 years? The Bible says in the midst of the week the AC will set up the AoD. If he sets it up by the middle of 7 years, there has to be 1260 +\- some years afterward. And if it’s setup in the midst of 7, there must be time afforded for the AC to conquer and place himself into the beast as the 11th horn before the AoD therefore expanding time of the week on the front half.

Here is that information: The Greek for the word "man" in that verse is not of an individual or single man, but both male and female as in mankind. Here is the strongs definition: 444 (anthrōpos) relates to both genders (male and female) as both are created in the image of God – each equally vested with individual personhood and destiny The word for man as an individual in Greek is anēr, which refers to a male individual of the human reace, and anthrōpos (the one used in the above verse) which is the racial, generic term, and which has the general idea of 'mankind' " Also this verses cannot be referring to a literal man made temple because I do believe Paul had referenced our bodies as being the true temple of God. Not a real man made temple. I will double check when I have time tonight if was Paul who said this in another book. If a third temple was built now, would it be the temple of God? Would God honor it? No, as it would be blasphemy when sacrifices where being done in it. Would we as Christians call it a temple of God? I hope not. Read more: unsealed.boards.net/user/112/recent#ixzz5CqOxmSKx

These are my studies and opinions on Daniel 9:26-27: My studies have been on the last key verses in Dan. 9 that everyone tends to think is a peace treaty with Israel and some other country/entity. The definitions are in parentheses besides key words. Pay particular attention to the word covenant and how it is defined. This covenant is only made with a sacrifice.... not a signed agreement. 25 "So you are to know and discern that from the issuing of a decree ( command/order) to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince there will be seven weeks and sixty-two * weeks ( notice the seven weeks is listed before the sixty two weeks for a total of 69); it will be built again, with plaza and moat, even in times of distress. ( I believe this is referring to the building of the second temple and restoring Jerusalem after the Babylonians destroyed it.)26 "Then after the sixty-two * weeks ( keep in mind the seven weeks was listed BEFORE the 62 weeks that is being mentioned in this verse before in verse 25, so at this point of time there is 69 weeks completed) the Messiah will be cut off ( this is defined as destroy or consume to confirm a covenant by cutting flesh into two pieces to cause death to complete the covenant. i.e. such as a sacrifice. Not a paper signed agreement.) and have nothing, and the people of the prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. And its ( the city & sanctuary or temple) end will come with a flood ( with overflowing/overwhelming force, used figuratively) ; even to the end there will be war; desolations ( judgmental destruction from God, this is specific for the way it is used here) are determined. 27 "And he ( Jesus) will make a firm covenant with the many for one week ( completing the 70 weeks because this week is listed after the 7 & 62 weeks), but in the middle of the week he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain offering ( Jesus dying on the cross put a stop to this for all); and on the wing of abominations ( this is defined and used in a way to describe something as blasphemous, filthy & disgusting. Especially in the sense of something idolatrous being the blasphemy, is the way it is used in this verse) will come one who makes desolate ( an extreme destruction or ruining), even until a complete destruction (To complete or bring to an end by destruction. Utterly consume), one that is decreed ( ordered/commanded. So this destruction that is completed is ordered) , is poured out on the one who makes desolate.( Poured out on the one who causes the destruction and causing them who started and completed the first destruction, to be destroyed)" That is my take/breakdown on the Daniel 9 verses that are used to describe a "peace treaty" being signed. I don't see that at all here imo. EDIT: I colored the definition sections so they are easier to read.

cwood85 nice to see you again (maybe I missed some of your posts) I may have asked this before at some point in another thread but a comment/question about our bodies being a living temple of God. Believers are the temple of the Holy Spirit. I dont believe that this applies to non-believers do you (or others)? If so why would that be? I guess my confusion or lack of understanding is how can lawlessness "sit down" in a temple that is not a temple. Unbelievers arent the temple believers are. OR does this support the verse prior to it where those who "fall away" are led into deliberate, perpetual sin, living no longer for Him, but for self allowing the "lawlessness" to reign?

I don’t recall it being called a treaty nor being signed. Just a peace with many. We know Israel is one because another verse says your annulment with death and when they say peace and safety.... Israel is peaceful with a few Muslim countries today. They have trade with some, and allow border movement to a degree.
I disagree that you stress Jesus as the one who stops the sacrifices. That counters other scripture that says the AC does that. Why would Jesus want to stop that? Now ask, why would the AC? Think of it from a Christian perspective, not Jewish. Then you will know. For Christ and communion is our drink and grain sacrifice and we are to present ourselves a living sacrifice. That is what is to be stopped. Stopping worship, stopping prayer, stopping communion....all things we hold dear.

The Greek here for sit is: kathizó. While it does mean to sit, sat or take a seat, it also means to set, settle in, or appoint. It is used as verb in the speech. Verb: a word used to describe an action, state, or occurrence, and forming the main part of the predicate of a sentence, such as hear, become, happen. So in a sense it can mean he places or appoints himself as the same level of God within the temple. Just some thoughts. Also the other Greek word for physically & literally sitting down is: kathezomai

Guess I havent made my point too well. UGH!
Is all of mankind the temple of the Holy Spirit or is it only believers? If it is all of mankind then I completely agree with the assessment of the metaphorical "sitting down".
If it for only believers (who are not a temple of the Holy Spirit) how can anyone or anything metaphorically sit down where there is no temple?
I hope that helps make it clearer. It does to me but I already understand what I'm trying to say. I am not focused on the "sitting down" part CWOOD, VENGE I am focused on the temple.

Mike, I have had the same question. If there is no physical temple for someone to sit in, then what? If it's spiritual, it doesn't make sense to me. Believers, being indwelt with the Holy Spirit, could not also house the Antichrist spirit.

Mike, I have had the same question. If there is no physical temple for someone to sit in, then what? If it's spiritual, it doesn't make sense to me. Believers, being indwelt with the Holy Spirit, could not also house the Antichrist spirit. Please do not think I am picking on you with what I am going to state. I truly am not, just looking at the possible logic behind this verse based on the words and their meanings that are used and thinking about them. The word used is man of Lawlessness or Sin.lawlessness; the utter disregard for God's law (His written and living Word). 458 /anomía ("lawlessness") includes the end-impact of law breaking – i.e. its negative influence on a person's soul (status before God). As we can see the above verse does not state antichrist nor is the word found in the verse. Being lawless or sinful does not mean one is antichrist, which is the complete denial and believing in Jesus. Religions of Judaism or Islam, or atheist are all antichrist as both do not believe in Jesus as our savior and the son of God. Islam has created their own version Jesus and Judaism denies Him entirely. The was this word is used in this verse is being sinful or lawless that negatively affects ones soul or well being particularly at the end impact (breaking point). So if this verse does have a spiritual meaning (which I am under the opinion that it is) impacting ones soul through sin and lawlessness is certainly spiritual. If one through lawlessness causes themself grief and negatively impacts their soul and state of well-being, anyone can do that. If we obsess over cars and ignore God even as a Christian we are rising our idol above Him. If we commit adultery even as a Christian, we are sinful and lawless. I hope that makes sense. The only time the actual word Anti-christ is used is here in 1 John 2:18-19 18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. 19They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us. This verse also does not state that the (as in singular) antichrist shall come, but that antichrist shall come. There is not plural for anti christ. Hope that makes sense

Not following your thought on this. You think Daniels 70th week is not 7 years? The Bible says in the midst of the week the AC will set up the AoD. If he sets it up by the middle of 7 years, there has to be 1260 +\- some years afterward. And if it’s setup in the midst of 7, there must be time afforded for the AC to conquer and place himself into the beast as the 11th horn before the AoD therefore expanding time of the week on the front half. Yes of course Daniel's 70th week is 7 years. But that does not mean that the events of Revelation span the entirety of the 70th week. We have assumed that only 69 weeks have been fulfilled and that there are 7 years remaining. So we think the events of Revelation are 7 years. But I think that the 69th week ended in 27/28AD and that Jesus then fulfilled the first half of the 70th week until He was cut off, as cwood outlined in her verses on Daniel. Can you provide any scripture that says the AC will set up the AoD in the midst of the week? Is there any scripture that says the AC will stop sacrifices in a rebuilt temple? Is there anywhere in Revelation that says the tribulation is 7 years?

Cwood - it does to some degree but what I believe youve proved is that we all have idols above God. Please dont consider this as me be aggressive or combative with you (or anyone else). Maybe I'm not seeing what you do. Maybe not habitually, perhaps even unknowingly, I believe everyone has idols. Again maybe its not an everyday thing, but I have to disagree with "lawlessness (before God)". No one ALIVE is exempt from lawlessness. Its our nature to be lawless as our flesh is lawless and we battle each day by putting on our armour, etc. This battle was once explained to me as gravity vs. lift. Gravity is always there pulling at you, but the law of lift can overcome it. Flesh vs. Spirit. If you walk in the Spirit 24/7 then praise God I am jealous! However if youre like me and have kids, drive a car, speak to people...then you probably dont. Back to my original point which seems to me that I am missing your answer to my question or i'm not getting what you are saying. If there will be no 3rd temple and unbelievers are not temples of the Holy Spirit and are already considered lawless and having a spirit of Anti-Christ where does lawlessness "sit down"...I dont make the connection between someone who is not a temple of the Holy Spirit (before God we are not), where is the temple that lawlessness will "sit down"? Are you implying that it is Christians who have idols in their lives (like me)? It logically cant be those who deny Christ. If it were even possible for them to be a temple of the Holy Spirit before they may receive/accept Christ then lawlessness is already "sat down". EDIT - I want to try to clear up the last few lines I wrote. If non-Christians are already lawless, then then anti-christ spirit is already sitting in their temples. What falling away of these would happen first? If (in my original question) non-Christians cannot be temples of the Holy Spirit as they deny Christ that leaves the only temple to be Christians or a physical temple where an actual man sits down calling himself god.

I don't see that at all here imo. EDIT: I colored the definition sections so they are easier to read. I've been studying this word for "cut off" as well. I highlighted this part in red above. This is an excerpt from an article Mike posted, written by a Messianic rabbi: The word that is used in Hebrew that is translated "to be cut off" has an important significance. The word is related to a covenant. In Hebrew, if one wants to make a covenant, one says, "to cut a covenant." Therefore, the Messiah will offer up His life in order to establish a covenant. Which covenant does Messiah's death establish? A covenant of peace—peace between HaShem and humanity. Isaiah the prophet speaks about why humanity needs Messiah. Isaiah clearly teaches that it is Messiah Who will make peace between G-d and man; for he says, "Behold, the arm of the L-rd is not so short that He cannot save, nor is His ear too heavy to be able to hear. Rather, your iniquities, they have separated you from your G-d and your sins have hidden (G-d's) Face from you from saving (you)." Isaiah 59:1-2 It is clear from this verse that man is in need of redemption; this is the reason why Isaiah proclaims at the end of this same chapter, "And the Redeemer shall come to Zion to remove the sin from Jacob says the L-rd and I this is My covenant with them, says the L-rd. My Spirit which is upon you and My Word which I have set in your mouth and they shall not remove it from your mouth or from the mouth of your seed or from the mouth of your children's children, says the L-rd from now and forevermore." Isaiah 59:20-21 I see these verses the same way as explained here except that I don't think the 70 weeks are complete, because the 6 purposes given in Daniel 9:24 have been fulfilled. (The part I don't agree with is highlighted in green).
