This End Times Deceptions Bible study will show that there is no Scriptural need for a rebuilt 3rd temple in Jerusalem.
Prophecy teachers refer to these passages to justify their explanation of a future 3rd temple in Jerusalem.
And since these deceptions are from the enemy, they create events in Israel to make it seem like they are going to build a 3rd temple, and they very well might.
But the Bible passages that these teachers are referring to have nothing to do with the end times or a third temple in Jerusalem.
Daniel 9
Futurists claim that Daniel 9:26-27 foretells an end times antichrist who will make a 7-year peace treaty with Israel, the 70th week of Daniel.
The peace agreement would supposedly allow the temple sacrifices to take place. And after 3 1/2 years, the antichrist will supposedly desecrate the temple, to start 3 1/2 years of Great Tribulation.
But the 70th week of Daniel was fulfilled on time, after the 69th week. Go figure! 😛
The ‘covenant‘ is not an end times peace agreement with the modern state of Israel, it is Jesus Everlasting New Covenant, which was offered to the Jews first, for seven years. Here is a Bible study that proves that it was Jesus New Covenant.
And the “people of the prince” is not referring to an end times antichrist, but it was fulfilled by Roman Prince Titus, who desolated Jerusalem and the temple and the Jews, in 70 A.D
Here is a Bible study that proves that it was Prince Titus.
The 70 weeks of Daniel prophecy only speaks about the rebuilding of the second temple, and never speaks about a third temple.
It speaks about the coming Messiah, and never speaks about an end times antichrist.
It gives a 70 week time frame and never speaks about a 1,987+ year time gap in between the 69th and 70th week.
Inserting those things into the prophecy is an abuse of Scripture, as they are out of context with God’s Word.
The concept of a futuristic 70th week of Daniel and one-man antichrist, is the creation of the Jesuits in the 16th century; as they sought to deflect blame about from the Roman Catholic Church as the Antichrist beast of Revelation, the Little Horn of Daniel, and the office of the Papacy, the Son of Perdition.
2 Thessalonians 2
Futurists claim that in 2 Thessalonians 2 Paul is speaking about an end times antichrist who will sit in the temple in Jerusalem and proclaim to be God.
“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 opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.”
So what does Paul mean?
Keep in mind that when the Apostle Paul wrote 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4, the Jewish temple was still standing, as it wasn’t destroyed by the Romans until 70 A.D., so any reference to a physical temple would have been to that temple, not an end times temple.
To understand that, let’s look at how Jesus defined the word “temple.”
In John 2:14, Jesus spoke of the physical temple. The Greek word for the physical temple is hieron.
“And He found in the temple those who sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers doing business.”
Then just five verses later in John 2:19-20, Jesus spoke of the spiritual temple. The Greek word for the spiritual temple is naos.
“Jesus answered and said to them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” But He was speaking of the temple of His body.”
Whenever Paul used the word naos, he applied it to followers of Jesus, the Christian Church, which is a literal temple, but not a physical building.
Paul is saying that the Son of Perdition would sit in the temple of God, that is, in the midst of the Christian church.
Instead of being an infidel who doesn’t believe in God, like so many pastors teach, the Antichrist does not reign outside of the Church, but in the very bosom of the Church.
Paul places the Son of Perdition nowhere else than in the very sanctuary of God.
The Pope sits (assumes a position of authority) as God in the temple of God, proclaiming to be the leader of all Christians.
The Pope is called the ‘Vicar of Christ’ which means ‘substitute for Christ.’
He proclaims to forgive sins.
He proclaims that salvation is only available through the Roman Catholic Church.
He preaches a message of ‘salvation by works’, instead of through the blood of Jesus.
Here is a Bible study that proves the meaning of the temple in 2 Thessalonians 2.
Revelation 11
Futurists claim that John is speaking about a physical temple, when he says to measure the temple, and to designate the gentiles into the outer court.
“Then I was given a reed like a measuring rod. And the angel stood, saying, “Rise and measure the temple (naos) of God, the altar, and those who worship there.” Revelation 11:1
The ‘reed like a measuring rod’ is the Word of God, the Little Book of Revelation 10.
The Greek for reed or rod is “kanon” = canon of holy scriptures. Kanon is also translated as rule, or measuring rod.
God was telling Martin Luther, a Catholic monk, to use the Word of God to determine who was the true church, the Temple of God; and who was the false church.
When Martin Luther and others measured the teachings of the Catholic Church against the Word of God, they were able to see that it is the false church.
Here is a Bible study that explains the fulfillment of Revelation 11 and the Two Witnesses.
Ezekiel 40
The temple that Ezekiel envisioned has been fulfilled in the true temple of God, one that is not made with human hands.
“God, who made the world and everything in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands.” Acts 17:24
Paul told us that we are the temple of God.
“Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief corner stone, in whom the whole building, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.” Ephesians 2:19-22
“Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? If anyone defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which temple you are.” 1 Corinthians 3:17
“And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “I will dwell in them And walk among them.I will be their God,And they shall be My people.” 2 Corinthians 6:16
John drives the point home when Jesus proclaims that people who overcome will be a pillar in the temple of God.
“He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall go out no more. I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God. And I will write on him My new name.” Revelation 3:12
An end times rebuilt Jewish temple with bloody sacrifices would be blasphemous.
Jesus is our High Priest whose blood atoned for all of our sins by His sacrifice.
If they ever do rebuild a temple in Jerusalem and restart bloody sacrifices, it will be a denial of Jesus Christ’s sacrifice and a blasphemy to God.
Such a temple could never be called “the temple of God.”

You are correct with our Messiah there is no need for sacrifices, he is our perpetual sacrifice and he is our high priest. In the third temple, God and the prince are said to enter from the east; therefore the temple door must be shut to let no one in, only God and the prince can enter through it. The sacrifices will be cooked, boiled, and baked on the north side of the temple. You only have to read the bible to know that our heavenly Father resides in the north and not the east. Isaiah 14:12-14, Leviticus 1:11. The east is where the sun rises and also where the SUN god aka Satan dwells. This is why he is referred to as son of the morning, son of the dawn in some bible translations. God and the prince in Ezekiel are Satan and his Antichrist, the sacrifices are not animal sacrifices but human sacrifices; which is why this third temple is the Abomination that causes desolation referred to by Daniel and the Messiah. Satan and his Antichrist, will stop the daily animal sacrifices and begin human sacrifice, that will be boiled, cooked, baked facing the north where our heavenly Father resides and they will be consumed. This is the abomination ( repulsive thing) that causes desolation ( grief, anguish) And why the Messiah told persons to flee into the mountains when the saw it. Ezekel 46:24 tell us. 24 Then said he unto me, These are the places of them that boil, where the ministers of the house shall boil the sacrifice of the people. Ezekiel is surnamed ben Buzi in Hebrew which translates to ben=son and Buzi which is contempt so his name is son of contempt or son of disobedience. Ezekiel in in 20:25 states that our heavenly Father gave Israel laws he KNEW were not good and judgments they could not live by. He also stated that he was instructed to use human excrement to cook with, shave his head and bread, which is something our heavenly Father who is clean and holy would never ask him a priest to do. Ezekiel also writes obscenely in very sexually explicit terms, something other prophets do not do. He also speaks of the slaughter of those that do not have marks on their foreheads, which in reality is the mark of the beast. Ezekiel was not a prophet to the Almighty One of Israel but of Satan himself, who wrote Satan’s future plans for the Third Temple and the AntiChrist. Notice how “the prince”is never identified and with our Messiah there are no sacrifices, you only have to research the prophet Ezekiel to see that none of his prophecies unlike Jeremiah ever came true, so he was a false prophet and we are told by his name he is the son of contempt/disobedience.
Wow! Your explanations are so far off the mark, I don’t know where to begin. That office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, fulfill Bible prophecy as the Little Horn of Daniel 7, the Son of Perdition of 2 Thessalonians 2 and the antichrist beast of Revelation; who leads the harlot church of Rome.
The Abomination of Desolation isn’t about the antichrist, it was the Roman army that surrounded Jerusalem in 66 A.D.; fulfilling Luke 21:20-21. The early church obvious saw the sign and they took the first opportunity to escape to the mountains. The Jews stayed, and they and their temple and city were desolated. http://theolivetdiscourse.com/the-abomination-of-desolation-deception/
As for saying that Ezekiel was a prophet of Satan, that is absurd!
How would a temple being built for a false religion be considered a Temple of God?
Exactly Anna, a temple that’s built to have animal sacrifices, would not be called a Temple of God; as Messiah already atoned for our sins as the one-time sacrifice.
The royal priesthood through all the generations since Jesus walked on the earth always is the bride of Christ waiting for the Bridegroom’s return. Revelation 1:9 revieles John serving God in the royal priesthood waiting for the return of Christ ; in the same way we 70 or 80 generations later all babtized children of God serve God learning at Jesus feet to worship God in spirit and in truth to become that same royal priesthood that pass on the same Word of God to the future Church of the Living God.
So your saying the catholic church is the true church if you equate it to the temple. I have a hard time believing that as their doctrine goes 180 against the Bible…saved by works, worship of Mary & statues, belief in salvation after death for $ ( purgatory).
I’m not sure how you came to that conclusion, but no, I am not saying that the Catholic church is the true church. Quite the opposite, as they are the harlot church of Revelation 17, as their Popes and priests teach concepts that are contrary to Scripture. I discuss this on the Roman Catholic Beliefs website, in trying to help Catholics see the truth. http://romancatholicbeliefs.org
The office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, fulfill Bible prophecy as the son of perdition and the antichrist beast. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/prophecy-points-to-the-leader-of-the-roman-beast/
Great article. You clearly understand this issue. Many of the comments indicate that the commenters don’t fully understand that the Bible does not require a third temple to be built in Jerusalem; nor can they produce even one scripture that clearly states a third temple must be built to fulfill prophecy. As you said, a narrative has been created and imposed on scripture to make it mean what third temple advocates want it to mean. If one approaches scripture without the presupposition that says a rebuilt third temple is taught in the Bible, then it is impossible, from scripture alone, to arrive at a rebuilt third temple. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for sharing your insight Reg!
The temple, in all scripture, refers to the human body, as Paul clearly teaches. This resolves are problems and seeming contradictions.
Even Solomon’s temple, regardless of whether it was real or not, scripturally is the mind and body. It was the size of a modern tennis court, yet took thousands to build an entire 7 years. No way. It was also built in silence, metaphorically speaking about a temple made without hands which is the body, the real dwelling house for the Holy Spirit.
I respectfully disagree, as many Scripture clearly point to the physical temple. Messiah clearly entered the temple and overturned the tables of the money-changers. When Messiah died, the veil of the temple was torn in two. Messiah foretold that the temple would be destroyed in that generation, with not one stone left on another, and we know that the Romans did exactly that in 70 A.D.
I believe you have been swayed by the Catholics. Not only that but you are highly misguided. You take bits and pieces out of context and throw your views, not God’s. He clearly states that the temple is after the Jews come back to Israel. And the Antichrist will stand in the temple…and proclaim himself God. This is a physical discription. Take this from someone who speaks ancient Greek.
Andrei, you may know Greek, but you’re the one who is misguided about prophecy fulfillment. It’s ironic that you think that I’ve been swayed by the Catholics, as I point to the office of the papacy as fulfilling Bible prophecy as the Little Horn of Daniel 7, the Son of Perdition of 2 Thessalonians 2, and the antichrist beast of Revelation. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/prophecy-points-to-the-leader-of-the-roman-beast/
I teach that the Pope leads the false, harlot Roman Catholic Church, which is called “Mystery, Babylon the Great“, because it’s based on the Babylonian Mystery religion. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/prophecy-points-to-the-roman-catholic-church/
Exactly what part of that did I learn from Catholics?
If you know Greek so well, then you would know that Paul was not pointing to a physical temple that the Son of Perdition would sit in; rather he was referring to the true temple (Greek word naos) of Elohim that is made without hands; as Messiah is the cornerstone, the disciples are the foundation, and the saints are the little stones which make up the walls.
The Pope pretends to be a leader of the true church (temple), but in reality he is a false teacher, who misleads 1.2 billion Catholics with a false salvation message. The Popes have already proclaimed to be God, to be Jesus Christ in the flesh, to forgive sins and to provide salvation; all of which deny God and Messiah, all of which is anti-christ. http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/the-son-of-perdition-of-2-thessalonians-2/
Perhaps the abomination of desolation IS the third temple. It would undoubtedly be an abomination to God.
Andrew, here’s a Bible study about the Abomination of Desolation, which explains it in more detail; along with the rest of Messiah’s Olivet Discourse; so that you can see how it fits into the narrative. http://theolivetdiscourse.com/the-abomination-of-desolation-deception/
If the third temple is biblical why god waited approximately 1950 years. After the making of the new temple the daily sacrifices will be restored to its former ways. This become against to the sacrifice of the jesus on the cross. The god never allow the making of the third temple. According to new testament we are the temple of god.
1 Corinthians 3:16-17
Do you not know that you are a temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?
Also prophet said that
Thus says the Lord: “Heaven is My throne, And earth is My footstool. Where is the house that you will build Me? And where is the place of My rest?For all those things My hand has made, And all those things exist,” Says the Lord. “But on this one will I look: On him who is poor and of a contrite spirit, And who trembles at My word. – Isaiah 66:1-2…..
Thank you for sharing your insight Alan!
We, the church body of believers are The Lord’s temple.
The church today is a mess. The abomination is currently standing in the temple and exulting himself as God in the church body (temple of The Holy Spirit)
The Lord’s last two prophets, His two witnesses, bring The Great Tribulation. It is the time of purification before The Lord Jesus returns. This event has not happened yet.
The purpose of The Lord’s two witnesses is first, to be witnesses. “Measure” means sum up, determine if the profession lines up with The Word in spirit and truth. How does the bride of Christ measure up these days? The Lord’s two witnesses are His testers (litmus paper people). Will anyone know them? How will they be treated? What will they witness? Two or three witnesses are required to bring any determination or decision according to The Word. Is the bride pure? Obviously, we can see the church is now married to the world. So, what needs to happen before The Lord Jesus returns?
The holy city are all who profess Christ. The witnesses trample the fruit. Reference Daniel 12, “many will be purified, but the wicked will do more wicked”. Matthew 24: The Lord Jesus tells His disciples of His return and the events prior to His return as well as references Daniel 12. Daniel 12 also speaks of 2 “others”, they are two witnesses. Revelation 7 speaks of the multitude who come out of great tribulation.
Revelation 11:
2….the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months. 3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. 5 And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed. 6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will. 7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. 8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. 9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves. 10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth. 11 And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. 12 And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. 13 And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven. 14 The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.
Agreed Lisa, that we are the temple in which the Father dwells.
As for the Two Witnesses, they are the Scriptures and the Saints, both of which witnessed against the antichrist Popes of Rome during their 1,260 year reign of power from 538-1798 A.D.
The Popes had banned and burned the Scriptures, and persecuted the church of Messiah, causing over 50 million saints to be killed. They Witnesses were as good as dead in the early 16th century, and the Pope celebrated.
Then exactly 3 1/2 years later, Martin Luther posts his 95 Thesis which sparked the Protestant Reformation, and the church of Messiah came back to life with power.
The reformers translated the Scriptures into English and other languages, and with the advent of the printing press, the ‘Little book’ of Revelation, the printed Bible, was spread around the world, witnessing again.
Here’s a study that proves out who the Two Witnesses of Revelation 11 are: http://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/the-two-witnesses-of-revelation-11/
You say that no third temple needs to be rebuilt and that it isn’t biblical even though three different temples are described in scripture, yet….if you look at current events Israel is trying to rebuild their temple.
Revelations come true as they play out in real life. So unfortunately, while a good exposition, your position is incorrect due to what is actually happening in real life.
http://www.wnd.com/2017/04/push-to-rebuild-jerusalem-temple-has-earth-shaking-implications/
And what is the third temple Ryan? Is it not the assembly of saints; as Messiah is the cornerstone, the disciples are the foundation, and the saints are the little stones which make up the walls? Is that not the true temple made without hands, in which the Father dwells?
The enemy has created the narrative about the need for a rebuilt temple, with their false prophecy fulfillment explanations; so of course they are going to play that out, and cause the Jews to prepare to built a temple.
And look at how effective they are, for here you are proclaiming ‘what is actually happening in real life’, so they have fooled you with their false prophecy fulfillment explanations.
The point is that all of the prophecies that people cite to justify the need for a temple, have already been fulfilled.
The main one is the supposed future 7-year tribulation, in which the one-man antichrist enters the rebuilt temple.
But the concept of a futuristic 70th week of Daniel is a deception from the Jesuits of Rome, who created it to deflect blame away from the Popes, as the Protestant Reformers had rightly identified them as the Son of Perdition and the antichrist beast.
There is no future 7-year tribulation period, as the 70th week of Daniel was fulfilled on time, after the 69th week; when Messiah and His disciples confirmed with the Jews (for seven years) that He is the promised Messiah who ratified the everlasting covenant with His blood, as the Passover Lamb.
The seven years ended after the Jewish leaders stoned Stephen to death, marking their final rejection of their promised Messiah. Then the book of Acts clearly shows a dramatic shift, as the Gospel was also preached to the Gentile nations.
http://70thweekofdaniel.com
1) it is Revelation, singular. 2) The Bible never mentions a third temple. Interpreting the Bible through current events will always give false interpretations. The scripture must be interpreted through the eyes of the writer, the original audience and compared to other scripture.
Hello @ End Times Deceptions:
I happened across your website. I too am a 7th-day Sabbath adherent per the Bible, although I no longer consider myself part of SDA church based in Silver Spring, for a number of reasons actually. And not the typical reason SDA’s like to give when people leave their ranks. They ususally say he or she got their feelings hurt by somebody, boohoo. No, not that as I’m not that thin-skinned.
I simply on several fronts found that I no longer agreed with (some) of their DOCTRINE due to what they teach versus what the Bible actually says! I know that’s hard for deeply steeped SDA types to swallow but that’s just the way it is. I’m an Independent, Non-Denom. believer but not independent of the Word of Holy God nor independent of Elohim’s Spirit to guide me.
My question is one that I don’t hear a peep about ever from Adventist types, certainly not from any Silver Spring connected operations. How should we in your view, understand Ezekiel chapter 38? Many evangelicals interpret it to mean a coming attack upon the state of Israel by Russia (Rosh they say) and Gomer (Germany they say) plus Iran and Turkey. If it’s already a fulfilled prophecy then when and how was it fulfilled in history? If yet to be fulfilled then what does it portend to yet happen at some point either before the 1K period or after the millennium and before all the lost and Satan will ultimately
be eradicated from existence?
I don’t get it that such a stark prophecy in the Bible gets such short-shrift among Adventists? They’re as quiet as a church mouse concerning it. One could easily surmise that they’re trying to sweep something under the rug but their utter silence about it either way, speaks volumes in my estimation. Maybe just yet another reason added to the litany of reasons why I no longer felt at one with the SDA as an organization. Plus, they’ve gotten waaay too political even though they pretend they are not so. Don’t believe me. Just read the editorials written by their paid staff members in the Adventist Review online and you’ll quickly see they are much more in bed with the Democratic party regarding what they call the ‘social gospel.’ They should stay neutral in those areas but then that would be too much like doing it the right way!
Thank you.

Mark 16:5-20
5And having entered into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right, wearing a white robe, and they were greatly amazed.6And he said to them, “Do not be much astonished. You seek YAHUAH of Natsarith, who was impaled. He was raised – He is not here! See the place where they laid Him. 7And go, say to His talmidim, and Kefa, that He is going before you into Galil. You shall see Him there as He said to you.” 8And they went out and ran from the tomb, and were trembling and bewildered. And they spoke to no one, for they were fearful. 9And resurrecting earlier on the first of the Shabaths, He appeared initially to Miryam from Magdala, from whom He had cast out 7 demons. 10She went and reported to those who had been with Him, mourning and weeping. 11 And when they heard that He was alive and had been seen by her, they did not believe. 12And after this He appeared in another form to 2 of them as they walked and travelled to a village. 13And they went and reported it to the rest, but they did not believe them either. 14Later He appeared to the 11 as they sat at the table. And He reproached their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen Him after He was raised. 15And He said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the besorah to every creature. 16He who has believed and has been immersed, shall be delivered , but he who has not believed shall be condemned. 17And these signs shall accompany the ones who believe: In My Name they shall cast out demons, they shall speak with renewed tongues, 18they shall take away serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison it shall by no means hurt them, they shall lay hands on the sick and they shall get well.” 19Then indeed, after the Master had spoken to them, He was received up into the heaven , and sat down at the right hand of YAHUAH. 20And they went out and proclaimed it everywhere, while the Master worked with them, and confirmed the word through the accompanying signs. Be it so YAHUAH!!
You need to be immersed in the name of YAHUAH forgiveness of sins!! With the blood of YAHUAH MASHYACH there is remission of sins!!!
Acts 2:21, 2:38, 22:14
Praise YAHUAH!!!
Annette, This seems logical as you say:
“I totally agree that yahshua taught that when we receive him we are the temple and that the Holy Spirit lives within us. That he was the Holy sacrificial lamb and by his blood we are washed clean. When we believe that we have the Holy Spirit we do not have to worry about translation he speaks to us from within and gives us understanding and discernment of what is to come. That we are to fear nothing because we’re under his power and jurisdiction. There are two sets of rules the ones who follow Yeshua and the ones who follow the ways of the world.”
The revelation of the rebuilding of the temple will definitely come to pass just as it is spoken of in the Bible or Torah. Reason being…
The majority of Jews clearly did not recognize Jesus as THEIR Messiah, and had him put to death. They did not recognize him as the Holy Lamb. They are still searching for their Messiah to come. They will build the temple as spoken in the Bible and start their sacrifices just as there Torah tells them to do so. The Antichrist will set in that Temple and Proclaim himself to be God. And many will be deceived. Not just the Jews but many Catholic Christians.
If it truly is the Pope that will sit on the throne the Catholics will raise him up after all they are ready call him the Holy Father. I totally agree that yahshua taught that when we receive him we are the temple and that the Holy Spirit lives within us. That he was the Holy sacrificial lamb and by his blood we are washed clean. When we believe that we have the Holy Spirit we do not have to worry about translation he speaks to us from within and gives us understanding and discernment of what is to come. That we are to fear nothing because we’re under his power and jurisdiction. There are two sets of rules the ones who follow Yeshua and the ones who follow the ways of the world.
Annette, the second temple was still standing when Paul wrote 2 Thessalonians 2. He was not referring to a physical temple in which the Son of Perdition would proclaim to be God. He was referring to the body of Christ, the true temple of God. The Pope pretends to be a part of the body of Christ, thus he sits in the temple. The Popes have already proclaimed to be God.
Pope Innocent III declared “We may according to the fullness of our power, dispose of the law and dispense above the law. Those whom the Pope of Rome doth separate, it is not a man that separates them but God. For the Pope holdeth place on earth, not simply of a man but of the true God.”
Pope Pius V blasphemed that “The Pope and God are the same, so he has all power in Heaven and earth.”
Pope John Paul II said “Don’t go to God for forgiveness of sins: come to me.”
