THE JEWISH TEMPLE, THE RAPTURE AND THE ANTI-CHRIST - WHAT IS THE CONNECTION?




Daniel 9:27
[27]And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease (in the Temple) and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

In our first article on this topic, I explain some points, which I think is very expedient for the first timer reading this article to go and read here. Now I believe this will be the concluding part on this crucial topic. I will be explaining the connection between the Jews Temple to be built, the Rapture and Rising of the Antichrist. 

I perceive some ignorant Christians has been wondering what kind of topic is this, what does this has to do with my spiritual life, what will this add to me spiritually?, etc. Well, it's not far fetch, the uttermost, peak and maturity of a Christian spiritual growth is to grow to the fullness of stature of Christ (Eph 4:13).
But, it's impossible to reach this fullness and completion of redemption without the redemption of your bodies (Romans 8 :23, 1 Cor. 15:49-55, 1 Thess. 4:15 - 18) and going up in the Rapture. And this is one of those teachings that will deliver into your spirit, soul and body the Rapturing faith and rapturing anointing (the extra oil) needed to go up in the Rapture. So, this topic is not for everybody but for the Wise and Bride of Christ getting ready to go up in the Rapture.  

Prophecy of the Rebuilding of the Temple

In the 9th chapter of the book of Daniel, we read a prophecy about the coming end times. The New Testament calls it the Great Tribulation, the Old Testament calls it the 'time of Jacob's trouble', but they both are speaking of the same event. This event is a 3 1/2 year period that starts with an event known as the abomination that causes desolation. This occurs half way through a seven year period or heptad (one week of 7 years) which begins with the enforcing of a covenant between a future roman leader and the nation of Israel.
What Daniel Saw
"Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.
Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof [shall be] with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make [it] desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate." Daniel 9: 24-27

Daniel was given a vision far into the future, pointing to a time when the Jewish Temple would be rebuilt. The Temple in Jerusalem was destroyed by the Romans in 70 AD, and for nearly 2,000 years now it has laid in ruins, with just parts of the Temple walls and some of the foundations remaining.
Watchers of end times bible prophecy have long speculated as to whether or not the Temple would be built for a third time. But Daniel, verse 27, clearly sees that there is a rebuilt Temple.
"And he (the antichrist) shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate." Daniel 9:27

The question is how can you have sacrifice and oblations ceasing if there is no Temple from which to have sacrifices and oblations? Clearly there needs to be a working, functioning, rebuilt Temple, and the only place where God would allow a Temple to be built is exactly where the ruins of the last one now stand.
But as previously stated, this Temple will be taken over, as Daniel the prophet foresaw, but the Lawless One, commonly known as the Antichrist, at exactly three and one half years after the start of the Time of Jacob's Trouble. This Temple will not be the LORD's temple, the Glory of God will not inhabit it.

The Connection between the Temple, Rapture and the Antichrist 

When the Jews start to build the temple and associate with other religious figures, the rapture is near. Why? Simply because the Antichrist will need the temple in the midst of the 70th week of Daniel, where he shall set up an image unto the beast. Which Daniel and Jesus Christ called the Abomination of desolation. Read Daniel 9:27 and Mark 13:14. 

Rev. 11:1-3. Remember this chapter 11 is prophetic, future!" -
Verse 1, "reveals John was given a rod to measure the Temple of God and the altar, and those worshipping at the end of the age! The rod was probably shaped like a staff!" - Verse 2, "he was told to leave out the measuring of the court outside the sanctuary; to omit it for it was given over to the Gentile nations to trample under foot for three-and-a-half years!" - "It seems to be two time periods given here! The first time period in verse 2 is the first part of the covenant in Daniel's 70th week, when the Jews began their worship in the Tribulation Temple! They reestablish their sacrifice and worship!" "And verse 3 refers to the last half of the week when the Temple is defiled! - In the middle of the week (seven-year period) the anti-christ breaks his covenant and interrupts and forbids Temple worship!" - "He will set himself up in the Temple as the false messiah! The bride leaves sometime before this! Also at this exact time according to verse 3, the witnesses challenge him!"

So, we can see that the connection between the Temple, Rapture and the rising of the Antichrist is simply "The Temple has to be built and completed, so that the temple worship will be restored during the this 7 years of agreement, then the temple worship will be stopped by the Antichrist, where he set himself up as God, but before he does that Rapture will take place, thereafter the anti-christ will take over all things for the next three and half years."

Anytime from now the Israelites might begin the building of this Temple which has to be built in Temple Mount the same location where Solomon built the temple. But in my own Opinion, I believe they won't be able to finish or complete the temple. Then they will have to make a covenant with the anti-christ, and complete their Temple. So, The Jews are trying to get a peace agreement with the surrounding countries so they can finish this Temple, and probably will not complete it until such an agreement is made! Antichrist will promise them protection and safety in the completion of the Temple, and they will receive him as the Messiah, but unfortunately they never knew that the Antichrist is also interested in the Temple, to set up the Abomination of desolation. 

What is the Abomination of desolation? 

Let us describe what Jesus said in Mark 13:14, "But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand!) - Then it gives a warning to flee that the horrible part of the Great Tribulation has started!" - "It's at this time that the mark of the beast begins! Notice this word that Jesus uses, abomination! A careful search of the Old Testament Scriptures shows that this word is used over and over with idol worship! It appears that when the anti-christ breaks his covenant that he will bring in the image of the beast and set it up in the Temple." (Rev. 13: 14-15) - "The appearance of the false christ with this image would be the abomination of desolation appearing in the Holy place! Jesus said, whosoever readeth let him understand!" "Now, this image concerns also all the worship of the false religions that took on the worship style of the beast, (Rev. 17:5). 

Why the Abomination of desolation? 

Isaiah 14:12-15
[12]How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
[13]For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
[14]I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
[15]Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.

The aim of Lucifer, now Satan the Devil, in heaven was to be like the God Most High and set up his own throne higher above the throne of God in the north of heaven. But the All Knowing God was more faster than him and Lucifer was cast down to the earth. So what Satan could not achieve in heaven, The most High God, the Lord Jesus Christ will permit him to achieve on earth just for three and the half years which is the same number of years Jesus Christ spent in ministry. So the Antichrist will set himself as god in the most Holy place, and that make it an abomination of desolation. 

Recent News Concerning the Temple 



The drops of blood formed a long trail in one of the main plazas of Jerusalem’s Old City. This time it wasn’t a terror attack but it definitely was a sensitive event from a Middle Eastern perspective.
It was a reenactment of the Paschal sacrifice, staged by activists seeking to expand the Jewish presence on the Temple Mount and attended by hundreds of right-wing Jewish men, women and children. The bloody trail marked the route from the place where the lamb was slaughtered to the altar put up in the middle of the plaza.
This is the sixth year in which Temple Mount activists have staged the reenactment, with barefoot priests in white garments resembling those worn by priests in the ancient Temples and gold-painted vessels modeled after those of the Temples strewn about the altar.
But Thursday’s event marked a real achievement. For the first time the group was allowed to hold the ceremony in the heart of the Jewish Quarter, outside the Hurva Synagogue, just a few hundred meters from the Temple Mount − which is administered by a Muslim religious trust.



Police on Sunday arrested several Jewish activists, including five minors, who they said were suspected of intending to carry out a Passover sacrifice on the Temple Mount.
After security forces allowed a rehearsal sheep slaughtering to take place in the Jewish Quarter of the Old City on Thursday, it was widely believed that they would not let a “real” ceremony move forward at the contested Jerusalem site ahead the Passover festival Monday night.



In addition to arresting the activists, police raided the home of the parents of the head of a far-right group called Returning to the Mount, Raphael Morris, A lawyer for some of the activists, Itamar Ben Gvir, decried the “silencing arrests” and called on police to allow “freedom of worship.”
He told Army Radio that “the police were acting disproportionately”and that “Israel is losing its democratic character.” It is shameful that the State of Israel acts with an iron fist against people who simply want to renew one of the Torah’s most important commandments,” Morris said in a statement.

There are many news relating to the rebuilding of the temple, but space might not permit me, so I will paste some screens shots of News below, take time to go through them carefully. 







The Temple Institute’s priest training program



A Jerusalem group plans to open the first school of its kind to train priests to serve in a third Jewish temple, which they hope to see erected on Jerusalem’s most contested holy site.
The Temple Institute’s priest training program is the group’s latest effort to prepare for and hasten the creation of a third Jewish temple. To that end the group has also recreated more than 70 “sacred vessels” and garments for the high priest, to Jewish legal specifications, which are on display in its Jerusalem headquarters in the Old City.
“The logical step is to consider what we would be doing with the Temple and who would be responsible for its services and what kinds of services,” said Chaim Richman, a rabbi and the international director of the Temple Institute.
The training program, dubbed the Nesher HaKodesh Institute for Kohanic Studies, will include classes on religious practice and also the role of modern technology in the Third Temple. It will be open to Kohanim, Jews believed to be descended from the biblical Aaron, the brother of Moses. Today, there are 14 students in a pilot program, which the Temple Institute hopes to expand to accommodate several dozen. According to Richman, in the time of the Second Temple there were “thousands” of priests who fulfilled religious duties in the Temple. “It is similar to military reserve duty,” he said.
Founded in 1987, the Temple Institute aims to fulfill the Jewish biblical commandment to rebuild the Jewish temple on the grounds where it once stood, now the site of Islam’s second holiest site, the Al Aqsa Mosque. To Jewish believers, this was the spot where Abraham nearly sacrificed his son Isaac at god’s command, and where two previous Jewish temples stood. 



Israel captured the site, known to Jews as the Temple Mount and to Muslims as the Noble Sanctuary, from Jordan in the 1967 War. In order to avoid inflaming religious tensions, Israel allowed Jordanian Muslim authorities to administer the site, as they had done for generations. Today, Jews may ascend the site, but they are not allowed to pray there, a rule that the Temple Institute challenges. The Jewish prayer movement at the site has gained major traction in recent years, and now has a new champion in the Israeli government in Knesset Member Yehuda Glick.
Ir Amim, a group advocating for a more equitable Jerusalem for Jews and Palestinians, has named Temple Institute as one of several groups that threaten the delicate status quo at the site. Palestinian fears of a Jewish takeover of Al Aqsa helped to fuel the violent spate of knife attacks against Israelis since last October.

The Temple Institute is raising $75,000 for its priest training program on the social fundraising site Indiegogo. So far, 29 people have donated just over $1,000.

Supreme Moslem Council: Temple Mount is Jewish



The widely-disseminated Arab Moslem position that the Temple Mount is not Jewish has been debunked - by the Supreme Moslem Council (Waqf) of Jerusalem, in a Temple Mount guide published in 1925.
In 1997, the chief Moslem cleric of the Palestinian Authority, Mufti Ikrama Sabri, stated,
"The claim of the Jews to the right over [Jerusalem] is false, and we recognize nothing but an entirely Islamic Jerusalem under Islamic supervision..." Thus began a campaign to convince the world that the millennia-old natural association between Jerusalem and Jews was untrue. As Islamic Movement chief Raed Salah stated in 2006, "We remind, for the 1,000th time, that the entire Al-Aqsa mosque [on the Temple Mount], including all of its area and alleys above the ground and under it, is exclusive and absolute Moslem property, and no one else has any rights to even one grain of earth in it."

However, it is now known that this "absolute" Moslem claim is actually not as absolute as claimed. In fact, back in 1925, the Supreme Moslem Council - also known as the Waqf, which has overseen Temple Mount activities on behalf of the Moslem religion for hundreds of years - boasted proudly that the site was none other than that of Solomon's Temple.
The Jerusalem-based Temple Institute reports that it has acquired a copy of the official 1925 Supreme Moslem Council Guide Book to Al-Haram Al-Sharif (the Moslem name for the Temple Mount). On page 4, the Waqf states,
"Its identity with the site of Solomon's Temple is beyond dispute. This, too, is the spot, according to universal belief, on which 'David built there an altar unto the Lord...', citing the source in 2 Samuel XXIV,25. source - Arutz Sheva

The time of Jacob's trouble will soon be here


People have said that since all the various items need to stock the Temple would take so long to recreate according to the Bible's exacting standards, that 7 years is just not enough time to complete that mission. And they are correct. It would take years, decades, to rightly create all items needed for proper Temple worship.
The Temple Institute, in Jerusalem, has been working since 1987, recreating the items that will be needed and used in the about-to-be-built Third Temple. Now, you can argue all you like about what will happen to the Muslim mosque that's there now, and all the other points. But this much I know.
The God that, 2,000 years ago, declared that in the last days Israel would be re-gathered and brought back to their land, is quite capable of working through time and space to bring about His prophecy of the rebuilt Temple.

Conclusion 

Finally, I perceive this Temple is under construction already, the only delay is the Peace Agreement. But by prophecy, 6000 years is for this earth to exist, and has expired by the year 2000, so we are in the borrowed time and it will soon ended, but before it end the Peace Agreement has to be sign. 
What you need to do as a Bride of Christ that will go up in the Rapture, is to watch the news and Pray as prophecies is Fulfilling in order to escape terrible things that will befall the earth immediately after the Rapture.
