Just wanna clear up a distinction that I don't think is being fairly represented by our preterist friends..
Futurist Christians DO NOT believe the 3rd Jewish Temple has any significance whatsoever other than it is a mark in time, and indicator of prophetic fulfillment.
Its no more holy than the donkey Christ rode in on.. (there is probably a good case for the donkey tho)
We believe that the Jews will not seek favor with God for building a temple, rather, we believe it to bring about further judgment for not hearing the Written Word. Enter Daniels 70th week.
If Christ was prophesied in Genesis, and came in Matthew, then there is no reason Daniel cant prophesy the events in the end times, meaning not yet happened.
We believe that the Jews were not given favor when he destroyed the second temple. Hence their dispersion.
The 3rd temple is nothing but a building. A structure, that the Jews who are blind will foolishly think that God will somehow accept this over submission to Christ.
The Jews are blind to the truth we as Christians share in, even tho the same truth is in their Torah.
If a futurist says that sacrifices will give the Jews favor with God, they are ignorant imo to what scripture says so clearly and concisely..
Preterists seem to have us backwards, let the record show, we view the temple in the same way they do..
We just believe it will be built, they don't.
Doesn't matter what they think, the Jews are gonna show you what they think.
