Should Christians support Jews in rebuilding of Third Temple?

[Blessedj01]

Christians bodies are a temple for God, man made temples mean nothing to God.

Jesus fulfilled all things, He is the perfect sacrifice, the LAST sacrificial lamb.

For Christians to support the building of a temple would be a sin, it would be acknowledging Christ was not the perfect sacrifice.

I don't think Christians should care that much. If Orthodox Jews don't acknowledge Jesus, what difference will a temple make? I think we should keep preaching the gospel and not worry about what the world does.

 

[Usus Vox Tractus]

The third temple is built by the Zeal of the Lord. Not with brick but with bodies, hearts and minds.

The "3rd temple" is gathering of the elect and the uncountable multitude of conquerors. Spiritual Israel. The Bride of Christ.

I personally was greatly encouraged by the response that I received to this question when I posed it on the Christian Heritage Party of Canada discussion forum.

Heck no.

Also a spiritual priesthood.

JESUS VS THE JEWISH RULERS AND PRIESTS

Matthew 3:9
"And no ye should be thinking to say in yourselves 'a Father we are having Abraham'.
For I am saying unto ye, that is able the God, out of these stones, to raise-up offspring to Abraham. [Luke 3:8/16:24]

1Pe 2:5
Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual G4152 house, an holy priesthood,
to offer up spiritual G4152 sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ

If the final Elijah is a Christian as Eporu Ronald Alfred wrote that the final Cyrus will be……. and if a Christian final Elijah is recognized as a major league player by a significant percentage of Orthodox and Chassidic Jews……..and if a Christian Cyrus type of political leader actually completes the Jerusalem Third TEmple complex … perhaps as early as the year 2030……. then something that both modern Jews and modern Christians could have in common….. is the recognition that the final Elijah and the final Cyrus (perhaps known to Jews as Moshiach ben Ephrayim/Yosef)……. were powerfully guided by the Holy Spirit.

Google the name Eporu Ronald Alfred, Cyrus…. if you want to read the best analysis of Isaiah chapters 42 to 46 that I have ever read.

I think that this will help…...

Prophecy regarding unity in the church through support for Jews?

Your statement is true…… yes…….. the metaphorical temple…. the body of Messiah is all the Christians and Jews and servants of G-d from many nations…….. all of whom will be with Messiah Yeshua - Jesus for eternity. Little Colton Burpo author of Heaven is for Real…. has stated that King David and Samson and John the Baptist and others are with Jesus - Yeshua all the time!

But….. this fact about the metaphorical temple….. in no way rules out the possibility of a literal fulfillment of every word in Ezekiel chapters 40 to 48.

 

[Ceden55]

We should all be looking out for the next blood moon set to appear on October 8 (Sukkot) then see what it will mean for Israel. I cannot say that I support or do not support the building of the third temple. Regardless it will happen. When it does happen it will set the stage for the anti-christ.

 

[Ceden55]

In Daniel chapter 10 verse 27 talks about a peace treaty that will happen but then will be broken. The building of the third temple will be a part of this treaty.

That was well put forth, and agree except everywhere one sees naos, one should render Sanctuary. The body does not contain the 4 courtyards, altar, building structures (ieron) except for the structure in the center, "Most Holy Place and the Holy Place."

Oh finally, oh how good and sweet it is to find someone that understands the Gospel!

You Woodpecker are a rare jewel, believe it or not, and it is obvious to me that the LORD has been teaching you, and preparing you for His new work.

I agree with all of the above responses.
Hi Old Jack. Glad you mentioned the "Sanctuary".

FWIW, only the Sanctuary, and not the Temple, is mentioned in Revelation.

Head's up, anytime things go too smoothly with all the and just bring up the concept of the "Sanctuary" (eg, IIThess.2:4) then the rocky road begins the controversies with many speed bumps in agape of course.

Old Amill. agaping Jack

btw only have to find "1" place naos (Sanctuary) includes the 4 courtyards, golden altar, structures other than the central structure then I'll recant with apologies.

Doesn't the article by Eporu Ronald Alfred seem to fit with the fulfillment of Jeremiah 33:16 - 26:

"In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely: and this is the name wherewith she shall be called, The LORD our righteousness.

For thus saith the LORD; David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel;

Neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to kindle meat offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.

And the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah, saying,

Thus saith the LORD; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season;

Then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers.

As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me.

Moreover the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, saying,

Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying, The two families which the LORD hath chosen, he hath even cast them off? thus they have despised my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.Thus saith the LORD; If my covenant be not with day and night, and if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth;

Then will I cast away the seed of Jacob, and David my servant, so that I will not take any of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will cause their captivity to return, and have mercy on them."


This hasn't happened in the past so surely this must be fulfilled during the Millennium or as the Jews would term it….. The Era of Moshiach - Messiah?

We're at the ending of the "Millennium" where Jer.33:14-26 is almost fulfilled.

If you read the Ezekiel account you will see the temple described there is far bigger than what the current Temple Mount. So it won't be built any time soon.

Good point!

I still have hope that it could perhaps occur by 2030… the two thousand year anniversary of the death, burial and resurrection of Messiah Yeshua - Jesus…… but I could be misunderstanding the two day - 2000 year prophecy that I think is in Hosea.

 

[DennisTate]

How do you support everyone when you have two or more opposing sides?

I guess one way is to support their freedom of speech and freedom of opinion?!

I guess we need to define the word "soon?"

I believe that some of the words of Messiah Yeshua - Jesus indicate the possibility of this being done for the two day/ 2000 year anniversary of his death, burial and resurrection???

But I could be wrong about this..... I often have been in the past?!
