We differ on the interpretation of the temple in Revelation 11. I see these verses speaking of the current temple at that time before the destruction in 70AD.

Thank you for the reply. I would like to ask a question though. How could these verses be speaking of the current temple when John wrote this 30 years after that temple was destroyed? Revelation was written around 100AD.

One of the questions that has been on my mind during my forty seven years of being a Christian and researching topics like this is the idea of ........... "Replacement Theology?"

At this time I believe that if a Christian tends to support the rebuilding of a literal Temple Mount Third Temple and / or a literal Ezekiel style temple then.........
that Christian is definitely NOT guilt of getting into Replacement Theology because..........

.... we Christians have no idea how to do any of the Levitical rituals implied in Ezekiel chapters forty to forty eight.

One of the most insightful statements that I consider relevant to the issue of Replacement Theology is:

This idea is relevant to this entire discussion because...... the fulfillment of Ezekiel chapter forty seven is critical for stabilization of the climate in the Middle East....... which is relevant to decreasing tensions in the Middle East as well......

So basically one time line in which Ezekiel chapter forty seven is fulfilled by .... for example the year 2050 vs another time line in which Ezekiel chapter forty seven is fulfilled by 2035..... would be two amazingly different time lines?!

Would the rebuilding of the Jerusalem Third Temple stabilize the climate???

True......
but this guy is a near death experiencer who was told during his NDE that
he could have stayed in heaven.... he had been faithful but........
he was told that if he would go back into his body and live out more years
he would be able to greatly encourage many people who would affect the lives
of so many others that he would change history.

This is after the twenty minute mark of this amazing video:

That would be like blaming king Hezekiah's request for a longer life as badly motivated because it resulted in the birth of king Manasseh, who sacrificed children among other evils.

Imputing motives and jumping to conclusions that are not explicitly or implicitly mentioned in the scriptures makes for very risky preaching in my view.

That could be......
but giving ordinary Christians the impression that the Prophet Elijah was sinless..... and felt no fear at the prospect of falling into the hands of the loyal servants of Queen Jezebel......... also has many, many, many, many dangers......... because it sure doesn't seem to fit with this easily understood verse......


Jas 5:17

Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.

But after the nine minute mark in this interview the idea of whole books being written about each of us .......BUT.... if we do not yield to the Holy Spirit...... those pages may never come to pass even though Messiah Yeshua - Jesus has sent angels to guide us toward a very different life than we tend to imagine.

Dr. Kevin Zadai is a near death experiencer........
During his forty five minutes or so in heaven he is told that he can stay in heaven but......

Jesus tells him that if he will go back and speak into the lives of people he can re-route their lives and finish up what needs to be done during this generation so that
the kingdom of Messiah Yeshua - Jesus is set up in the very near future.

After twenty six minutes he prays so that the witches in the audience lose their familiar spirits and would no longer be able to be witches...... This is useful....

His prayer is after 26:00 minutes in this video:

But... even the Apostle Paul quoted some pagan poets in scripture.......
and used their ideas as part of one of his sermons.

This is a related topic:

Multiverse Theory, multiple Ezekiel 37 events and the unification of Calvinism with Universalism?
