Will There Be A Future Temple Rebuilt In Jerusalem, Scripture Suggest There Will Be?

[Oseas]

Some have questioned "If Revelation was written after AD70 why doesn't John mention the destruction of the temple and the war." The answer is that John was only writing what He heard, He saw, And what he did, that is acting out what the church would do. It only concerned the church. It was the revelation of Jesus Christ which God gave to him. REV 1:1

Yes, what John saw is about his exile and also the things he saw in the seven churches of Asia-Revelation chap.1 to 3. Regardings chapter 4 to 22 he wrote what was showed unto him after be caught up to the 3rd heaven, as is written in 4:1.

John of Patmos (also called John the Revelator, John the Divine, John the Theologian) is the name traditionally given to the author of the Book of Revelation. Revelation 1:9 states that John was on Patmos,[1] a Greek island where, according to most biblical historians, he was exiled as a result of anti-Christian persecution under the Roman emperor Domitian.[2][3]
John of Patmos - Wikipedia

Domitian was Roman emperor from 81 to 96. The son of Vespasian and the younger brother of Titus, his two predecessors on the throne, he was the last member of the Flavian dynasty. Described as "a ruthless but efficient autocrat", his authoritarian style of ruling put him at sharp odds with the Senate, whose powers he drastically curtailed.

John of Patmos - Wikipedia

This is the wrong emperor at the time of John's exile to Patmos. According to the ancient Syriac Peshitta with its title page for Revelation, it reads, "Again the Revelation, which was upon the holy John the evangelist from God when he was on the island of Patmos where he was thrown by the emperor NERO."

Nero was emperor from AD 54 until AD 68. Revelation was written sometime between those years, according to the Syriac Peshitta. This is confirmed by all the internal evidence within the book of Revelation itself. When all that internal evidence is combined it narrows the composition date down to somewhere between late AD 59 and early AD 60.

The "late date" adherents are basing their view almost solely upon one ambiguous statement by Irenaeus. The "proof" in Irenaeus is hanging on only a single word which has been inserted at the translator's discretion into the quote of Irenaeus. This is too fragile a thread to hang all of one's interpretations of Revelation upon.

Very good.
Why should John mention what happened about 20 years before.

Deniers of a new Temple, directly oppose plainly stated scripture. It is also quite logical and probable that the people in the holy Land after the Sixth Seal, Lord's Day of vengeance and wrath, would want a building to worship God in - who has just protected and saved them? Zechariah 9:16, Psalms 37:9

In fact I'm not worried with what the storytellers write about John the Apostle, but what John wrote in his books, here's highlights Revelation. And my point and focus are as follow below:

Revelation was written after JESUS's ascension, and about the interpretation of seven hills in which has wisdom. -Revelation 17:9-10-. Scripture reveals they represent the 7 heads of the Beast of sea(waters-actually a Gentile Beast), on which the woman sitteth, I would say in the Vatican City - ROME, Italy.

In fact, the woman rides upon the Gentile Beast having 7 heads(hills)-Rev.17:15-The waters which thou sawest, where the harlot-the woman- sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

But the 7 heads of the Beast represent besides 7 hills, also 7 specific "kings" not out but within the satanic religious structures of the Beast(the Papacy), but according Scripture we have a detail: five kings are fallen(died), and one is-(the sixth)-and from this one-THE SIXTH "KING" begins LITERALLY to fulfill this prophetic revelation), and the other (THE SEVENTH AND LAST) is not yet come; and when he-the seventh-cometh(we must perceive that exactly in this point six "kings" already fallen), he, the seventh, must continue a short space (i.e. 1260 days or 42 months, no more, no more, as was foreseen by the Word of GOD ).

NOTE: One of the 7 heads of the Beast of sea will be wounded to death by a Sword(the Word of GOD)-Rev.13:3-,and his deadly wound was healed(how?Revelation 13:2): and all the world wondered after the Beast.

The question is: who are the seven "kings" not out but within the satanic religious structures of the Gentile Beast of sea(the Papacy), upon which rides the woman, the Roman Catholic Church?

The election of the last Pope - Will be his religious nickname Paulus VII?​

The world press has just announced the death of Benedict XVI. The current Pope Francis is also on the brink of death. Then must be elected the last Pope, and he will be the husband No. 266 (excluding Peter Apostle) of the Great harlot, the Roman Catholic Church. By the way, would be his religious...

By the way, there will be TWO DISTINCTS MAN Beasts operating in the Earth in this current time of Apocalypse, time of the end(1Corinthians 15:24-28.Take a look.) The Gentile MAN Beast of sea-Rev. 13: 1-10, and the Jewish MAN Beast of the earth having two horns like a lamb (a false lamb, in fact a false messiah)-Rev.13:11-18 combined with John 5:43-47, and 2 Thessalonians 2:2-4 and 9-12. Terrible. Terrible.

I'm not sure you are understanding what the Syriac Peshitta is. This is one of the most ancient translations of scripture, whose title page for the book of Revelation has that statement about John the Evangelist being on Patmos during the reign of Nero (not Domitian). These were not "storytellers"; this was a translation.

Your comment above is confusing the Revelation 13 Beast from the sea with the other Revelation 17 Scarlet Beast. You are presuming they were the same Beast, but they aren't. These were two different beasts with two different histories. And the other two-horned Beast from the land is yet another third Beast. As many others also do, you are confusing one Beast's activities with the other Beast's activities. And none of these three Beasts are a threat for our future, since they all went out of existence back in the first century. Heads, horns, harlot and all. The horrors of the Apocalypse are ancient history.

Your message above is like the earth without form and void, and your spirit is manifesting within the darknessnthat there is upon the face of the abyss. Your thinking is from a human perspective, a STUMBLINGBLOCK, not from GOD's perspective.

In other words, your testimony above is good for nothing.

Your efforts with multi-colored exaggerated-size script is more of the typical fear-mongering which I labored under for the majority of my Christian school education. God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Christ told us that "in the world ye shall have tribulation. But be of good cheer; I have overcome the world."

You are not considering that the Scarlet Beast which carried the harlot was "ABOUT TO ARISE" out of the abyss in John's days when he was writing Revelation, and it was ALSO "ABOUT TO...GO INTO DESTRUCTION" (Revelation 17:8). We are told that the Scarlet Beast would hate and turn against the woman which was riding in a dominant position on its back, and "make her desolate, and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire." (Rev. 17:16). That means the harlot could not have lived any longer than the Scarlet Beast who carried her; a Scarlet Beast which was "ABOUT TO...GO INTO DESTRUCTION" in John's generation.

Also, since the Scarlet Beast and the Beast from the Land were both going to share a fate together in the Lake of Fire (Rev. 19:20), that means both Beasts went into destruction at the same time - back in John's generation.

Your attempts to pin the identity of any of Revelation's three Beast characters on a modern-day entity are in error. God disposed of them all long, long ago. When you attempt to drum up panic for a perceived Beast link to any of today's individuals, you are making the heart of the righteous sad, whom God hath not made sad.

The birthplace, or the cradle of Antichrist, was the own Church, unfortunately, see how.

1 John 2:v.18-19
19 They 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.
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. (Compare with Hebrews 1:v.1-3)

Very interesting this revelation of the Apostle John of the primitive Church. Who is the Apostle John talking about or to whom is he referring in the verse above? Do you know?

See, we know that the book of Revelation was showed to John after JESUS' ascension to the third heaven. And we know also that there are TWO DISTINCTS Beasts described in Revelation 13:v. 1 to 18. Today, after about 2,000 years, we can and should discern both Beasts will lead / conduct two distinct satanic religious systems in near future, but one, the FIRST Man Beast, the Gentile Beast of sea, he already exists for a long time, the ANOTHER Beast-the Beast of the earth- has not yet, but he will manifest in near future. Then there will be TWO SATANIC BEATS and both will establish the universal and satanic KINGDOM of Antichrist-Dan. 2:40-43-,a religious MONSTER of 7 heads, 10 horns and a TAIL-Rev.12: 3-4 and 7-12.

In fact one of the two Beasts already exists since ancient time, it has existed for about two thousand years, that is, the Gentile Beast of sea-Revelation 13:v.1-10-, and sea=waters, it means peoples, and nations, and multitudes of all tongues-Revelation 17:v.15-, a satanic religious system developed by Satan within the Roman Empire, after he had corrupted the church of Rome that was established by the Apostles Paul and even Peter, and both were killed by persecution, and thus was developed satanic Antichrist's movements through the corrupt church of Rome, the ancient Catholic Church, later Roman Catholic Church. Notice that the book of Revelation describes 7 churches, and the church of Rome would be the eighth, but it was left out because the APOSTATE church of Rome was/had been already completely disapproved by JESUS.

In fact, the church or Rome developed a systematic opposition against to the true Churches of the Lord that preached the Gospel of God's Kingdom, preached firstly by the Lord JESUS Christ, and continued by the Apostles and disciples of the Lord, by the way, it is still preached until today.
The satanic religious structures and organizations of the Roman Catholic Church within the Roman Empire, which rides upon the Beast of sea, the Pope, since the confuse election of the first Pope in the first century after Christ, who can be Linus or Clement, and for to increase the confuse election of whom really is the first Pope, then the own Satan, the main leader of the blasphemer movement of Antichrist of the Roman Catholic Church, even he himself, time after, from the late 2nd or early 3rd century, by convention began to consider Peter as the first Pope. It was/is more a satanic blasphemy.
About the events above described, and the corruption of the Church of Rome, see what the Word of GOD reveals by the VISUAL testimony of John Apostle : 1 John 2:v.18-21
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.
19 They (the Church of Rome) 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.
20 But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.
21 I have not written unto you because ye know not the Truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the Truth.

What we can say is that the woman, that is the Babylonian Roman Catholic Church, the great harlot, married to 266 Popes, currently Francis I is the Pope, she sits upon the scarlet colored Man Beast of sea, the Pope, the Papacy - from the Latin expression Pater Patrum - , full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns, IN FACT a religious and satanic MONSTER, reason by which the RCC is called Babylon The Great, The Mother Of Harlots And Abominations Of The Earth, which is drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus.

THE PUNISHMENT OF THE ANCIENT AND CORRUPT CHURCH OF ROME FROM NOW ON - THE WORD IS GOD
Revelation 18:v. 1 to 5
1 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.
2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

I am not denying the corruptions which crept into the church of Rome, who staged such persecutions against those who were defending the gospel as taught by the Apostles. These are well known events. But the church of Rome as it came to be is NOT the harlot riding the Scarlet Beast's back.

What I am saying is that you are apparently not reading the time-relevant terms within John's own writing. He told His readers in the introduction and in the conclusion of Revelation (Rev. 1:3 and Rev. 22:10) that anything prophetic for the future which had been revealed in his book was "AT HAND". That means these were PRESENT events for those to whom the book was originally sent in the first century.

If John said from his perspective on the timeline that the Scarlet Beast was "ABOUT TO ARISE AND GO INTO DESTRUCTION", then this is not a re-emerging and destruction which has been pending for almost 2,000 years. That arising to existence again as well as that destruction of the Scarlet Beast was going to take place soon after AD 59/60 when John wrote the book of Revelation. And we know the harlot riding that Scarlet Beast's back was completely destroyed by the Scarlet Beast itself before that Scarlet Beast met its own death (Rev. 17:16). Plus, the Beast from the Land would share the same fate as the Scarlet Beast, and in the same location (Rev. 19:20). So all of these characters are as dead as a doornail, and have been for a very, very long time.

You are attempting to yank these revealed prophecies out of their first-century chronology and insert them into our future, which can't be done using all of John's time-relevant language.

 

[Ed Parenteau]

The kings of the earth, Herod and Pilate?. Pilate was a Roman who tried to free Jesus. Herod returned Jesus to Pilate.

Anyway that is nothing to do with the city of the seven hills that was ruling at the time Revelation was written. Rome is well known as the city of the seven hills. When was Jeruszlem called that? Or New York or Baghdad or Tokyo or whatever someone comes up with to deny what scripture means.

The Sanhedrin were the "kings of the earth" while Herod and Pilate were the rulers. And it has everything to do with who the "woman" is and not who or what the beast is. It is the beast who has the seven heads which are the seven mountains, not the woman. The woman sits on the Roman beast. When was Rome ever prophesied to be "prostitute"?
Revelation 17:16And the ten horns and the beast that you saw will hate the prostitute. They will leave her desolate and naked, and will eat her flesh and burn her with fire. 17For God has put it into their hearts to carry out His purpose by uniting to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God are fulfilled. 18And the woman you saw is the great city that rules over the kings of the earth.”

Jerusalem is the prostitute plainly prophesied in Ezekiel 16
Ezekiel 16 is a summary of Jerusalem's harlotry and abominations throughout her history from the time God birthed her until the time Christ makes atonement for her.

Ezekiel 16:1Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 2“Son of man, confront Jerusalem with her abominations.....

23Woe! Woe to you, declares the Lord GOD. And in addition to all your other wickedness,

35Therefore, O prostitute, hear the word of the LORD! 36This is what the Lord GOD says: Because you poured out your wealth and exposed your nakedness in your promiscuity with your lovers and with all your detestable idols, and because of the blood of your children which you gave to them, 37therefore I will surely gather all the lovers with whom you found pleasure, all those you loved and all those you hated. I will gather them against you from all around and expose you before them, and they will see you completely naked. 38And I will sentence you to the punishment of women who commit adultery and those who shed blood; so I will bring upon you the wrath of your bloodshed and jealousy.....

62So I will establish My covenant with you, and you will know that I am the LORD, 63so that when I make atonement for all you have done, you will remember and be ashamed and never again open your mouth because of your disgrace, declares the Lord GOD.”

Jeremiah 13:
27Your adulteries and lustful neighings,
your shameless prostitution
on the hills and in the fields—
I have seen your detestable acts.
Woe to you, O Jerusalem!
How long will you remain unclean?”

You are wrong. I'm not attempting to yank these revealed prophecies out of their first-century chronology and insert them into our future, as you are saying, what I did and I have written are the things that will REALLY happen now in the END of the times as my Lord JESUS said through Revelation and was written by John, and is written in Scriptures. By allegory, in my interpretations I kill the snake, and show the stick. What you do is a digress, a ramble, on the subject.

In fact, what can't be done using what JESUS said and John wrote are the foolish things you wrote in your post, what you wrote is like the earth without form and void, and your spirit wandering in the darkness of the abyss. Your opinions and what you are interpreting and describing above is good for nothing.

If you want to interpret the Word of GOD for us - the Word is GOD - give it for us based in what is written in Scriptures, for example as follow below:

- Beast of sea(sea=waters and they mean peoples, and nations, and multitudes of all tongues ).
- His roots : Revelation 13:2 combined with Dan.7:4-8 - leopard, bear and lion;
- His ethnicity: a Gentile Beast
- His main partner: the Beast of the earth, the dragon-Rev. 13:2
- He has seven heads; and (What are the 7 heads?)
- ten horns; and (What are the 10 horns?)
- upon his horns ten crowns; (Why 10 crowns? nobility? Why?)
- and upon his 7 heads; (Who are the 7 kings?)
- the name of blasphemy. (What is his name of blaspheme?)

- one of his 7 heads will be wounded to death; (Which the head was/is wounded? How the head was/will be wounded?)
- his deadly wound was healed: (by whom?)
- the world wondered after the Beast, and they worshipped the dragon ; (Why the world worshiped the dragon? )
- the worshippers of the dragon asked: Who able to make war with him? (Yes, who is able? His name is written in Scriptures

- How do you interpret Revelation 13:5-10?

As the last Roman phase of the ancient Sea Beast which had existed for 666 years up until John was writing Revelation in AD 59/60.

Yes, you're right - the Sea Beast had Gentile ethnicity (Chaldean empire under Nebuchadnezzar, then Medo-Persian, then Greek, then finally the Roman empire).
Yes, you're right - all those features of lion, bear, and leopard showed the Sea Beast's ancient history "roots". The Sea Beast came to existence back in Daniel's day when the Jews were first deported to Nebuchadnezzar's Babylon in 607 BC.
Yes, you're right - the Roman phase of the Sea Beast was supported by the Beast from the land. That two-horned Beast from the land was the corrupt religious leadership of Sadducees and Pharisees in Israel. The Land Beast's high priests performed their temple rituals and kept the fire on God's altar "in the eyesight" of the Roman Sea Beast which was garrisoned in the Fortress of Antonia overlooking the temple complex.

-The seven heads of the Sea Beast are the seven hills of Rome upon which the city was founded.
-The ten horns were the 10 Roman emperors who were in power over the nation of Israel - starting with Julius Caesar on down to the 10th emperor.
The crowns on the ten horns signified the crowned 10 emperors of the Roman empire up until the last horn's reign, under which the Judean Scarlet Beast was destroyed.
-The seven heads are not presented as kings in Revelation 13. They are only 7 mountains on which the city of Rome was located.
-The name of blasphemy on the 7 heads meant that the city of Rome claimed her emperors were gods. Emperor worship was a common cult practice, back in the day, from Julius Caesar on down.
-The one head (one of the 7 mountains of Rome) which was given a "deadly wound" I believe was probably the catastrophic fire at Rome in AD 64.
-The Palatine Hill (one of the 7 mountains of Rome) was renovated from its "deadly wound" after the AD 64 fire, by Nero's massive rebuilding campaign. His "Golden House" and imperial palace grounds became famous, as well as Nero's 100' tall bronze "Colossus of Nero" portraying Nero as a god. Witnessing the restoration of the imperial palace and surroundings after the devastating fire at Rome caused all to marvel.
-"Who is able to make war with him?" meant that Nero's irrational, despotic behavior demanded utter fealty and unreasonable devotion from all those around him. Anyone displeasing Nero risked death and/or confiscation of property and/or rank.

There is one more critical point you haven't mentioned. The Dragon gave the Sea Beast his power AND HIS THRONE, and great authority (Rev. 13:2). This "throne of Satan" was in the city of Pergamos, where Antipas became a martyr (Rev. 2:13). In 133 BC, the Roman phase of the Sea Beast was given this entire kingdom of Pergamos, its capitol city, and Satan's "throne - the famous 40' tall altar - by the dying King Attalus III. This man had no heir to pass his kingdom to except for his ally, the Roman Republic. So "Satan's throne" was a gift to the Roman Republic, which is how we know that the Sea Beast can be identified with ancient Rome.

All of these descriptors of the Sea Beast are not the same as the other Scarlet Beast - an entirely different Beast seen in the wilderness (not the sea) which represented an independent kingdom nation of Israel. It had a fluctuating pattern of existence unlike the ancient Sea Beast (it "was", then "is not", then "is" once again in AD 66).

As the last Roman phase of the ancient Sea Beast which had existed for 666 years up until John was writing Revelation in AD 59/60.

What you wrote above has nothing to do with the Word of GOD, it is simply your imagination, speculation, supposition, presumption, conjecture, and is good for nothing. Why I say this? It because 666 is the number of a MAN (who is him?), and HE will cause all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads, and that no MAN might buy or sell, save he that has the mark, or the NAME of the Beast, or the NUMBER of his NAME.

Who is the MAN 666?
What is his NAME? The number 666 is linked to his NAME.
What is the mark created or that will be created by him?

You should study better the Word of GOD - the Word is GOD - before to write what has nothing to do with His Word. By the way, what the storytellers say is from a human perspective, A STUMBLINGBLOCK, not from GOD's perspective.

If you read carefully the Revelation 13 context, you would note that it is not the Sea Beast which demands the use of the mark giving homage to itself. It was the Revelation 13 Beast from the LAND who imposed this mark upon those dwelling in the earth - a mark which gave homage to the Sea Beast with which the Land Beast was collaborating.

The 666 "number of A MAN" was referred to in Daniel 7:4. You remember that the Sea Beast had this first "lion" feature included in its biography in Revelation 13:2. That first "lion" kingdom is described in Daniel 7:4. "The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet AS A MAN, and A MAN'S HEART was given to it."

This indicates that Nebuchadnezzar, the head of that Babylonian "lion" kingdom at the beginning of the Sea Beast's existence, was the actual "name" of the Sea Beast which John was describing. John had to be discreet when describing this Roman phase of the Sea Beast, lest his comments were interpreted as instigating a rebellion against the Roman empire in those first-century days.

The MAN who initiated the existence of the Sea Beast character was King Nebuchadnezzar, who authorized the first deportation of Jewish nobility in 607 BC, which was 666 years before John was writing Revelation.

A name is usually given to something on the occasion of its initial foundation, or its birth.

The "mark" imposed by the collaborating, two-horned Judean Land Beast upon their own people, which gave homage to the Roman phase of the Sea Beast, began in 19 BC and lasted only until AD 66. It was the Jerusalem-minted copy of the abominable Tyrian shekel with its forbidden pagan images and inscriptions giving homage to the pagan city of Tyre and to the Roman demi-gods.

The religious leadership in Jerusalem asked permission from Rome to mint this coin as the only acceptable coin that could be used for temple transactions. There was no buying or selling sacrificial items allowed in the temple without exchanging any other foreign currency for this abominable copy of the Tyrian shekel. For a fee, of course. This is what angered Christ so much when he overturned the moneychanger's tables and drove them from the temple, accusing them of turning the temple into a "den of thieves". The corrupt high priesthood's Tyrian shekel requirement "mark" imposed on any worshipper coming to Jerusalem raked in a constant stream of funds for the high priesthood's pockets. "Follow the money" applied to this mark which gave homage to the Roman Sea Beast.

In AD 66, the Zealot rebellion cast off this Roman governance of their nation, and they began minting their own coins with the inscription "For the redemption of Zion", dating them as "Year One" of the rebellion. In other words, they quit minting those Tyrian shekels which had acknowledged their subservience to Rome.

I work with the Word of GOD, the Word is GOD, self-executable, understand? Your post above is the LITERAL fulfillment of the prophetic Word of GOD, according to the 1 Timothy 4:1-2: The Spirit speaks expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and DOCTRINES of devils; Speaking LIES in HYPOCRISY; having their conscience seared with a hot iron.
The Word of GOD reveals who the devils are. Who are them? The betrayers. Jesus said: Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil? He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve -John 6:70-71.

What you wrote is doctrine of devils, it is the Old Serpent, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world, sowing his tares through your posts. If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him.
The Word is GOD, self-executable, and He says: 1 Corinthians 3:13-15: --> 13 Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the Day(tghis LORD's Day) shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. 14 If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. 15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.
Yes, if it is burned up, he will have to bear the loss: he will still escape with his life, but it will be like escaping through a fire.
