The battle over who controls it will incite a world war. This much-coveted 35-acre compound is known as the Temple Mount. The Temple Mount is presently under Muslim control, while the Jews yearn to rebuild their tem\u00adple on this site. These conflicting agendas will eventually trigger a major war in the Middle East that will have glob\u00adal consequences. Islam, which is the world\u2019s fastest-growing religion with 1.5 billion adherents, considers the Temple Mount to be the third most sacred Islamic site. Muslim tradition holds that the Islamic prophet Muham\u00admad made his \u201cnight journey\u201d to heaven from this loca\u00adtion. Today, this mountain is home to two of Islam\u2019s old\u00adest centers of worship, the Al Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock. The entire area is controlled by the Palestini\u00adan Islamic authorities, the waqf. The waqf has very strict rules concerning non-Muslim visitation and activities on the Temple Mount. Jews and Christians cannot read from the Scriptures or pray on the Mount. There have been many incidents in recent decades that have brought about an Islamic riot due to violations of these rules. In some cases, rioters have been killed. This illustrates that this area is a very serious flash point in the ongoing hatred that Islam expresses toward the Israelis\u2019 occupation of what Muslims called an Islamic trust \u2013 territory that belongs to Allah.<\/p>\n<p>In spite of all of this, many Israelis are committed to the hope that someday they will be able to build the third Jew\u00adish temple on the Temple Mount. Archeological evidence confirms the Biblical documentation of the previous tem\u00adples that stood on this mountain. Jews recognize the Temple Mount as \u201cthe navel of the earth.\u201d (See Ezekiel 5:5.) It is an ancient tradition that God gathered dust from here to create Adam. They also believe this was the location of Abraham\u2019s attempted sacrifice of Isaac. (See Genesis 22:14.)<\/p>\n<p>Most Jewish scholars believe that the third Jewish tem\u00adple must be built upon the Temple Mount. In Deuterono\u00admy 12:13-14, the Lord instructed Moses: <em>\u201cTake heed to thyself that thou offer not thy burnt offerings in every place that thou seest: But in the place which the Lord shall choose in one of thy tribes, there thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings, and there thou shalt do all that I com\u00admand thee.\u201d <\/em>It is evident from many Scriptures that the Lord chose Mount Moriah, also known as \u201cthe mountain of the Lord\u201d or \u201cMount Zion,\u201d to be the location of His temple. (See Psalm 48.) Therefore, the Jewish people do not have a choice in this matter. If they are to build an\u00adother temple, it must be constructed upon the Temple Mount.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ptnews.org\/newsletters\/Pictures\/2013-08-Pic1.bmp\" target=\"_blank\">This is an unusual view of the Temple Mount from the north, looking south at the Dome of the Rock. Notice the \u201cDome of the Spirits\u201d on the left. Many Bible scholars believe that<br \/>\nthis dome marks the location of the Holy of Holies of the previous temples. Therefore, the<br \/>\nBiblical temples did not stand where the present Dome of the Rock is located. The entire<br \/>\nTemple Mount is very vulnerable to great destruction due to an earthquake because it was<br \/>\ncreated with fill-dirt by King Herod, beginning in 20 B.C.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Both Jews and Muslims are passionate about their reli\u00adgious traditions and aspirations that are bound up on this small plot of ground. As we shall see in this article, the day is coming when a very serious war will erupt over the Jewish occupation of the Holy Land and their aspirations to build their temple upon the Temple Mount. This war will pave the way for the world\u2019s final seven years under the rule of man.<\/p>\n<p>I have been following the developments in Israel con\u00adcerning the preparations for temple worship and the re\u00adbuilding of the Jewish temple for over 40 years. During this time, it is safe to say that all of the talk and prepara\u00adtions have involved the efforts of a few Jewish rabbis and their dedicated followers. However, this seems to be changing. In the last year, two Israeli politicians have called for the rebuilding of the temple. Just a few weeks ago, Housing and Construction Minister, Uri Ariel, stated: \u201c\u2026we need to build a real Temple on the Temple Mount.\u201d They recognize that their statements are provocative. However, they believe the time has come for the rebuild\u00ading of the temple.<\/p>\n<p>The rebuilding of the third temple on the Temple Mount is not a prerequisite for the beginning of the Tribulation Period. However, according to four Scriptures, a temple will be constructed and temple worship inaugurated before the mid-point of the seven-year Tribulation Period. While addressing the disciples\u2019 question about the \u201cend of the age,\u201d in His Olivet Discourse, Jesus warned the future genera\u00adtions living in Jerusalem to be aware of the approaching <em>\u201cabom\u00adination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place\u2026\u201d <\/em>(Matthew 24:15) A little over 600 years before Christ, Daniel had warned that the final years leading up to the beginning of the kingdom, would feature a political leader who will confirm a covenant with Israel for seven years. We know him as the Antichrist. At the middle of this designated time frame, the Antichrist will cause the temple sacrifices to cease and turn on Israel with vengeful wrath. (See Daniel 9:27.) The Apostle Paul, writing to the church at Thessalonica about 20 years after Christ, clarified that the Antichrist will enter the temple and declare himself to be God. Paul wrote:<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>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: Who op\u00adposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the tem\u00adple of God, showing himself that he is God.\u201d <\/em>(2 Thessalo\u00adnians 2:3-4) Finally, at the end of the first century, about 25 years after the destruction of the temple in 70 A.D., the<\/p>\n<p>Apostle John mentioned the Temple in the final book of the Bible. While describing events that will take place during the mid-point of the Tribulation Period, an angel commanded John to measure the temple. He also wrote that the Temple compound will be controlled by the Gen\u00adtiles during the last half of the Tribulation. (See Revela\u00adtion 11:1-2) Therefore, the Scriptural command for the rebuilding of Jewish temple during the Tribulation Period has been given by four writers, spanning a period of 700 years.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ptnews.org\/newsletters\/Pictures\/2013-08-TempleModel.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">A model of the Second Temple of the First Century<\/a><\/p>\n<p>There are several preparations that must take place be\u00adfore a temple can be constructed on the Temple Mount and temple worship reinstituted. Let us examine these preparations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Israeli control of Jerusalem and the Temple Mount<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Scriptures indicate that after the Jewish temple was destroyed in 70 A.D. there would be no temple in Jerusa\u00adlem throughout the remainder of the Church Age. The prophet Hosea, writing about 100 years before Daniel, wrote about an amazing prophecy concerning the absence of a temple in Israel\u2019s future. He wrote: <em>\u201cFor the children of Israel shall abide many days without a king, and with\u00adout a prince, and without a sacrifice \u2026 Afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king: and shall fear the LORD and his goodness in the latter days.\u201d <\/em>(Hosea 3:4-5) These words perfectly describe the political and religious reali\u00adties of the Jewish people as they were scattered among the nations for over 19 centuries. Jesus proclaimed that Jeru\u00adsalem would be <em>\u201ctrodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.\u201d<\/em> (Luke 21:24)<\/p>\n<p>The first half of the 20<sup>th <\/sup>century witnessed amazing events that created the perfect opportunity for the return of the Jewish people to their ancient homeland. Finally, on May 14, 1948, the nation of Israel was reborn. However, Israel would not control all of Jerusalem and the Temple Mount until the defeat of her Arab enemies in June 1967. Only days after this victory, the Israeli government an\u00adnexed East Jerusalem, uniting all of Jerusalem. However, due to the threat of a major Islamic war over the Temple Mount, the leaders of Israel decided to return control of the Temple Mount to the Muslims. So, Israel is not in complete control of the Temple Mount. Something in the future must change this status, thus allowing Israel to build a temple on the Temple Mount. But, that will once again be interrupted by the Antichrist at the mid-point of the Tribulation. In Revelation 11:2, an angel told John that the Temple compound would be <em>\u201cgiven unto the Gen\u00adtiles, and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.\u201d <\/em>Therefore, the Bible indicates there will be a struggle for the control of Jerusalem and the Temple Mount in the last of the last days. (See Zechariah 12-14.) Zechariah 14:2 indicates half of Jerusalem will be under the control of the Israelis until the end of the Tribulation Period. In light of the developments in Israel over the last few decades, all of this indicates we have arrived at the end of the Church Age. It is apparent that the Lord is about to revive His final plans for His chosen people. At the center of all these activities is the rebuilding of their temple in Jerusalem.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Attitudes in Israel about a Temple<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For 2,000 years now, Orthodox Jews have prayed three times a day for the following 5 things: (1) The return of the land of Israel to the Jews. (2) The return of the Jews to the land of Israel. (3) The rebuilding and reuniting of all Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. (4) The restoration of divine temple worship. (5) The rebuilding of the temple on the Temple Mount. An examination of these requests in\u00addicates that the first three have been fulfilled and the prep\u00adarations for the fourth item are now under way.<\/p>\n<p>Orthodox historian, David Solomon, says about the re\u00adbuilding of the temple: \u201cIt was the essence of our Jewish being, the unifying force of our people. \u2026 No one can say how, and no one wants to do it by force. Sooner or later, in a week or a century, it will be done. And we will be ready for it. \u2026 Every day\u2019s delay is a stain on the nation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Preparations for Temple Worship<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Since my first trip to the Holy Land in 1985, I have been following the exciting preparations for temple worship. My tour groups have made many trips to the Temple Insti\u00adtute in Jerusalem. We will be visiting the new facilities of the Temple Institute on my next tour in March, 2014. Plan now to join us!<\/p>\n<p>Many in the Islamic world stubbornly refuse to recog\u00adnize the historical Jewish connection to the Holy Land, Jerusalem, and especially the Temple Mount. No excava\u00adtions have been allowed on the Temple Mount. However, several years ago, Islamic authorities of the Temple Mount brought in heavy earthmoving equipment and re\u00admoved tons of soil from the Temple Mount to expand their prayer facilities. They dumped the soil in a ravine near the Mount of Olives. Realizing this soil contained clues to Jewish history of the area, a team of Israelis gained per\u00admission to move the soil to another location. With the aid of thousands of volunteers, they have been sifting through this soil. This very meticulous effort has already yielded several historical items from the first and second temple periods. Those in charge of this project claim that it will take another 15-20 years to sift through all of the soil. If you are interested in this, I recommend you visit the Tem\u00adple Institute website at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.templeinstitute.org\" target=\"_blank\">www.templeinstitute.org<\/a>. Also you can check out the Temple Mount sifting project at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.templemount.wordpress.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.templemount.wordpress.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Another fascinating development in recent years has been the training of young Jewish men for the priesthood. Through DNA analysis, the priestly tribe of Levi has been identified and some are being trained as priests. Jimmy DeYoung, a Christian journalist living in Israel, writes: \u201cA group of religious Jews who live in the Jordan Valley near the ancient city of Jericho are taking practical steps to pre\u00adpare for the building of the third temple in Jerusalem by preparing descendants of the Kohanim, the priests, and the Levites for service in this next temple. These Jewish lead\u00aders have established a training center where temple priests can learn exactly how to conduct the daily temple services and offer the required sacrifices as dictated by the Jewish laws from the Biblical book of Leviticus. The training center will include an exact replica of the temple where the student-priests can learn to do their duties which are required and this training center, the organizers believe, comes at an historic time marking the beginning of the work for the third temple.\u201d (Jimmy DeYoung, Watchman Newsletter, October 12, 2009)<\/p>\n<p>A visit to the Temple Institute quickly reveals that much research has been completed concerning the future temple and its construction. Models of the temple to be con\u00adstructed are on display, along with many of the vessels and instruments of worship that are necessary for temple worship to begin. When you ask the folks at the institute how long it will take to construct this temple, they smile and simply say: \u201cNot too long, we have been waiting for almost 2,000 years.\u201d Some at the institute have com\u00admented that when permission is granted for temple con\u00adstruction to begin, they are prepared to erect a Tabernacle on the Temple Mount, much like the one that served Israel for hundreds of years until the temple was completed by King Solomon. With priests prepared and everything in place, they will begin to offer sacrifices while the temple is under construction. The leaders of the institute remind us that the second temple of the first century was under continual construction while temple worship proceeded in the unfinished temple. Therefore, it is highly likely that Israel will at some point begin to worship in the temple during the Tribulation Period while it is still under con\u00adstruction. We can rest assured that the leaders of this con\u00adstruction and worship will have divine insight and instruc\u00adtion. According to Revelation 11:2-6, two very special Jewish witnesses, probably a resurrected Moses and Eli\u00adjah, will return to proclaim the gospel and give direction to the construction and Jewish worship at the temple. Je\u00adsus declared that Elijah would come before Him and <em>\u201cre\u00adstore all things.\u201d <\/em>(Mark 9:12) From a Jewish perspective, this would seem to include the rebuilding of the temple.<\/p>\n<p><strong>When Will Temple Construction Begin?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What stands in the way of the building of the Jewish temple? Physically, the presence of Islamic worship cen\u00adters on the Temple Mount \u2013 the Al Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock, prevent the construction of a Jewish temple. History demonstrates that any movement of stones or dirt around the Temple Mount brings the region to the brink of war. One cannot begin to imagine what would develop should Israel decide to remove one or both of these structures. For centuries, Muslims have ex\u00adpressed hatred and mistrust of the Jewish people. Since the establishment of the State of Israel, and especially the Jewish occupation of Jerusalem, this Islamic hatred is at an all-time high! Therefore, it would appear that Israel is waiting on divine help to clear the way for the building of its temple.<\/p>\n<p>In my opinion, this divine assistance will come during the future Gog-Magog war mentioned in Ezekiel 38-39. In this war, Russia and Iran, along with Turkey, Libya, and Sudan will come against Israel. As they are poised to attack on the northern border of Israel, the Lord will su\u00adpernaturally defend His people with a massive global earthquake that will destroy the armies amassed on Isra\u00adel\u2019s border. (Ezekiel 38:18-23) This earthquake in Israel will cause <em>\u201cevery wall [to] fall to the ground.\u201d <\/em>(Ezekiel 38:20) This would include all structures on the Temple Mount. The most radical of the Muslim armies will be defeated and their people humiliated. The Temple Mount will be in ruins. It seems to me that this will create the perfect opportunity for the Antichrist to seize the moment and confirm a covenant with Israel. This treaty will pos\u00adsibly include permission to build their temple on the Tem\u00adple Mount.<\/p>\n<p>It is very important to note that the stage is rapidly being set for the Ezekiel war. Russia and Iran are close allies and it is apparent they aim to control the future of the Middle East. A surge of radical Islam is currently re\u00adshaping the Middle Eastern landscape, creating new foes and alliances. Thanks to the Obama administration, the U.S. is now supporting the Muslim Brotherhood and ig\u00adnoring alarming developments in Iran. Many who have studied Ezekiel 38-39 have concluded that something must happen to the U.S. \u2013 Israeli relationship that will make the world\u2019s only Jewish nation vulnerable to attack, since it will be without the support or defense of its great ally.<\/p>\n<p>In my opinion, current events will bring about a radical change in the Middle East and spark the Ezekiel war. This will lead to the rebuilding of the Jewish temple in Jerusa\u00adlem. As these events unfold, the Lord could come at any time for His bride \u2013 the church of Jesus Christ. Get ready for the shout that will take us out!<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Approaching Economic Tsunami<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As the stock mark continues to reach record highs, au\u00adthor Micahel Synder has released a best-selling book on the U.S. economy. In The Beginning of the End, he writes, \u201cIs the global economic downturn going to accel\u00aderate as we roll into the second half of this year? There is turmoil in the Middle East, we are seeing things happen in the bond markets that we have not seen happen in more than 30 years, and much of Europe has already plunged into a full-blown economic depression. Sadly, most Americans will never understand what is happening until financial disaster strikes them personally. As long as they can go to work during the day and eat frozen pizza and watch reality television at night, most of them will consid\u00ader everything to be just fine. Unfortunately, the truth is that everything is not fine. The world is becoming in\u00adcreasingly unstable, we are living in the terminal phase of the greatest debt bubble in the history of the planet and the global financial system is even more vulnerable than it was back in 2008. Unfortunately, most people seem to only have a 48 hour attention span at best these days. They don&#8217;t have the patience to watch long-term trends develop. And the coming economic collapse is not going to happen all at once. Rather, it is like watching a very, very slow-motion train wreck happen. The coming eco\u00adnomic nightmare is going to unfold over a number of years. Yes, there will be moments of great panic, but mostly it will be a steady decline into economic oblivion. And there are a lot of indications that the second half of this year is not going to be as good as the first half was.\u201d This writer agrees with these observations and comments. We must remember that according to Revelation 6:5-6, the Tribulation Period will begin with a time of global hyper\u00adinflation.<\/p>\n<p>When one begins to look at the big picture, it is evident that the world is spiritually, morally, politically, geologi\u00adcally, and economically ready for the most difficult time for the family of nations in the history of mankind. Jesus said: <em>\u201cFor then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world, to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect\u2019s sake those days shall be shortened.\u201d<\/em> (Matthew 24:21-22)<\/p>\n<p>As believers in Jesus Christ, we are the only ones on the planet that have any hope. Read Romans 8:28-39 and thank the Lord for His everlasting love and the home He has prepared for us in heaven. (John 14:1-3) If you are not saved, now is the time to give your soul to the Lord. Repent of your sins and receive the Lord Jesus as your Lord and Savior. Read Romans 3:23; 6:23; 5:8; and 10:9\u00ad-13. Now is the time to believe upon and receive the Lord Jesus. (John 1:12; 3:16; Acts 4:12)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Moving Toward the Great Judgment of God<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In my opinion, recent events in the U.S. undoubtedly indicate that our nation is perilously close to the spiritual point of no return. Following the pattern in Scripture, this means that our beloved nation is ripe for divine judgment.<\/p>\n<p>The recent decision by the highest court in the land to give same sex marriage the same recognition as the Bibli\u00adcal mandated view of marriage between one man and one woman is a clear warning that divine judgment is about to fall upon America. God performed the first marriage in the Garden of Eden. He created man, then woman. Then, He then declared: <em>\u201cTherefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.\u201d <\/em>(Genesis 2:24) Thousands of years later, while answering His critics\u2019 question about divorce, Jesus repeated the Genesis declaration concerning mar\u00adriage: <em>\u201cHave you not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they two shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asun\u00adder.\u201d <\/em>(Matthew 19:4-6) A few decades later, the Apos\u00adtle Paul, while writing about marriage repeated this: <em>\u201cFor this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they shall be one flesh.\u201d <\/em>(Ephesians 5:31) Therefore, it is obvious that the mar\u00adriage between one man and one woman is the mandate of Scripture, and was supported by all the writers of the Bib\u00adlical books, both in Old and New testaments.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, these same godly men, under divine inspi\u00adration, declared that same sex affections and relations are an abomination to God. The Bible makes it clear that He will carry out divine judgment upon any culture that open\u00adly accepts this deviation from His holy mandate. (Read Leviticus 18:19-30.) Some homosexual groups claim that the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah was not due to their homosexual lifestyles. However, this does not agree with the Genesis account and the New Testament writers\u2019 comments about God\u2019s judgment upon these two cities.<\/p>\n<p>In the Old Testament account, the Bible focuses on how the homosexual lifestyles of men in Sodom and Gomorrah brought about their destruction. Notice that according to Genesis 19:4, the men who surrounded the house of Lot demanded that he release the two angels because they thought they were young men. The Bible tells us that these men represented all the men of the city when they cried out to Lot: <em>\u201cWhere are the men which came in to thee this night? Bring them out unto us that we may know them.\u201d <\/em>(Genesis 19:5) The Hebrew word translated <em>\u201cknow\u201d <\/em>plainly indicates they wanted to have sex with these men. Notice that Lot\u2019s response indicates this. He called their request \u201cwicked.\u201d (Genesis 19:7) In his des\u00adperation, Lot offered his two virgin daughters to the mob for sexual exploitation. (Genesis 19:8) Also, in the previ\u00adous chapter of Genesis, the Lord stated to Abraham as he was revealing what was about to happen to Sodom and Gomorrah: <em>\u201cBecause the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous; I will go down now\u2026\u201d <\/em>(Genesis 18:20)<\/p>\n<p>The New Testament sets forth Sodom and Gomorrah as examples of God\u2019s judgment upon any generation that dares to ignore the Biblical warnings about the acceptance and permeation of homosexuality in a culture. Jude 7 de\u00adclares: <em>\u201cEven as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to for\u00adnication, and going after strange [different] flesh, are set forth <\/em><em>for an example<\/em><em>, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.\u201d <\/em>While writing about the divine judgment that will come upon the ungodly, the Apostle Peter wrote: <em>\u201cAnd turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes con\u00addemned with an overthrow, <\/em><em>making them an example unto those that after should live ungodly.\u201d<\/em> (2 Peter 2:6)<\/p>\n<p>Also, in writing about God\u2019s wrath against ungodliness in Romans 1, the Apostle Paul warns that the open prac\u00adtice and acceptance of homosexuality is a clear indication that a society is morally bankrupt, and has been given up by God and subject to His divine judgment. (Read Ro\u00admans 1:24-27.) Please notice that in verse 27, God warns the men who commit sex with other men that they will receive in their bodies a due penalty because of their per\u00adversion. This is exactly what is taking place in our world today. Please go to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cdc.gov\" target=\"_blank\">www.cdc.gov <\/a>and examine the statis\u00adtics given by the Centers for Disease Control and Preven\u00adtion. They state that it is believed that about 4 percent of the American population practices same sex. However, the statistical data collected demonstrate that about 92 percent of those who contract HIV (aids) have had some connection with the homosexual community!<\/p>\n<p>The homosexual community would read this article and claim that it is hate speech. However, that is not the intent behind God\u2019s laws, standards and mandates.
