"Rebuilding the Temple?" - Pastor Doug Batchelor

how many of you have heard that there is the plan that the temple should be rebuilt in Jerusalem okay where does that idea come from then it Jesus at the end of his ministry walk out of the sanctuary and they see behold your house is left to you desolate now that's significant because twice before in Jesus ministry he chased the money changers out of the temple and he said you have made my father's house identify Yves then when he when they reject his message the week of his crucifixion he walks out after this very intense debate with the scribes and the Pharisees and he said behold your house it's very dangerous it goes from my house to your house is left desolate and then when Jesus dies the veil in the temple is torn and he says it is finished and during his trial the high priest tears his garments so you've got a rending in the sanctuary because we have a new temple a rending of the priests garments because we have new priesthood now keep that in mind with some statements if you look by the way that one behold your house is left to you desolate is Matthew 23 38 and if you look in Matthew 24 verse 1 and 2 speaking of the second coming his disciples come to show him the massive stones in the temple and there was one stone there we just did a video on it so we researched this carefully 150 150 thousand tons around but the point is that the stone weighs more than a fully loaded 747 one stone it's like 15 feet long by 11 feet by 11 feet and it's still there you can go see it today you have to go way down because it's a foundation stone so the disciples were showing these massive stones to Jesus you know we got the greatest national treasure it was one of the wonders of the world and he said there won't be one stone left upon a note another that won't be thrown down they're flabbergasted by this and said when will these things be the destruction of the temple they saw as the second coming in the end of the world it had already been destroyed once but Nebuchadnezzar they figured that the the church could not survive another destruction of the temple and then Jesus makes an interesting statement in John chapter 2 verse 19 he said destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up the Jews were listening to him said it's taken 46 years to build this temple because the restoration of Nehemiah his temple started back with King Herod the Great it's kind of strange that same Herod that killed the babies in Bethlehem wanted to make the Jews happy so he refurbished their temple not out of any real love for God but it was a political move so the way back 46 years earlier he had been refurbishing the temple and Jesus had destroyed I'll build it in three days Jesus how can you do that 46 years you read on it says but he was speaking of the temple of his body so when Jesus died on the cross and the veil was rent we've had a question that we've posed several times how many temples were there in the Old Testament for God's people you got one during the time of Moses Tabernacle in the wilderness you've got one during the time of Solomon elijah solomon's temple that was destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar they built another one that was then in effect during the time of Jesus through your temples three people appear on this Mount of Transfiguration Moses Elijah and Jesus and you know what Peter says Lord let's make three Tabernacles one for you one for Moses one for Elijah got one during the time of Moses one during time of Elijah and there's a third one during the time of Jesus sanctification justification glorification the three parts those sanctuaries were all built during different times during the time of Solomon and it just you know they had a great revival in the kingdom there was a sanctification taking place Jesus is God during man so the glory of that last house would be the greatest of all because the Son of God went into the house at the glorification and he was speaking of the temple of his body first Corinthians 3:17 if any man defiles this temple of God him will God destroy for the temple of God is holy which temple you are now as good seventh-day Adventist we all know that we want to take care of our body temples but Paul isn't talking there's so much about your body temple he said which temple ye Carol are that's because God's church is a temple on earth also doesn't Peter say 1st Peter 2:5 I know I'm giving you a lot of verses I had to find a mechanism to post my notes online for everybody 1st Peter 2:5 you also as lively stones are built up a spiritual house or what kind of temple is still on the earth today a spiritual house a spiritual house a holy priesthood and what kind of priesthood in the old one destroyed we got a new one now right you are priesthood to offer up spiritual sacrifices we don't offer literal Lambs we offer through faith the Lamb of God you know still with me ok go to Ephesians 2 verse 19 it's so important to understand because we're gonna get to 1844 in a minute Ephesians 2:19 now therefore you are no more strangers and foreigners but fellow-citizens with the Saints in the household of God and are built he says you are built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets Jesus Christ Himself being the cornerstone there in the four Gospels and the apostles and prophets built upon that in whom all the building fitly framed together grows into a holy what temple in the Lord in whom you are builded together for a habitation of God through the spirit how many of you remember reading in the Old Testament when the temple of Moses were dedicated and it says the glory of the Lord came down and filled it the Temple of Solomon was dedicated and you don't find this in Kings but you finding chronicles Rijn talked about Solomon dedicating the temple says the glory of the Lord came down burn up the sacrifice and there was so much glory of God in that temple the priest could not minister it's like when Moses came off the mountain they couldn't even look at him because of the glory and then of course the glory of the last temple is when Jesus goes into that temple now should there be the glory of God in the temple on the church on the world today if we're living stones when we come together it's got what happened to Pentecost did the glory of God come down in a special way and has God withdrawn the promise of the Spirit on his church you know so when we talk about the temple and we talk about the sanctuary being cleansed Jesus is not only the priests of a heavenly temple he is a high priest of his body that he built on the earth ok let me give you a few more verses here first chronicles 17 verse 11 first chronicles 17 11 now Nathan the Prophet is talking to David I better just pause for a minute give you the background of this after Nathan defeated I'm sorry after David defeated most of his enemies Hiram the king of Tyre gave David that some beautiful cedar wood and he sent his best carpenters one Kingdom wanting to congratulate the other he said let us build you a beautiful palace for you David you've been a shepherd all your life he ran from Saul you lived in caves you living in the field we're gonna build you a palace Jerusalem is your capital so Hiram along with David's workers I built behave in a nice house David sat in his house and he's looking around he said man this is a long way from the tent I used to live in God's been so good to me and he looks out his window and he sees there is a tattered tent where you've got Moses old tabernacle it's all patched together I mean hundreds of years have gone by and he said to Nathan the Prophet says this isn't fair he says I'd dwell on a house made of cedar but the Ark of God is in intent like I used to be in a tent I want to build a temple for God so Nathan says David God's been with you all along he must have put that in your heart the Lord is with you go for it I'm paraphrasing obviously God never said go for it but that was the meaning then as Nathan leaves the word of the Lord comes - Nathan said no Nathan go back and tell David I know you were speaking but that wasn't my word tell David it's good that it was in your heart to build a house for God but you're not gonna build it because you are a bloody man you know any words David was in how much blood he shed and it wasn't just lieth he went and killed 200 Philistines just for a dowry for his wife and he was in war after war and he took much life and God said look you're a man of violence but your son here's where the prophecy comes in verse 1st chronicles 17 11 it'll come to pass when your days are expired that you must go to be with your fathers that I will raise up your seed after you which will be of your sons and I will establish his kingdom and he will build me a house and I will establish his throne forever now what is that prophecy about who is the son of David that was to build a house this is an example of what you call a dual prophecy in the Bible there aren't that many of them you got to be careful about making everything a dual prophecy but this is clearly a dual prophecy did David have a son that built a temple Solomon built the temple matter of fact you read in 1st chronicles 28 6 solemn and your son he will build my house and my courts so that's clearly one example but what was another title for Jesus the son of David and did Jesus build a house what was Jesus occupation carpenter and he built a house but it was a spiritual house he said destroy this temple and I will raise it up but he spoke of what his body what is the church called the body of Christ now with that in mind when it says 2300 days and the sanctuary will be cleansed cleanse from what Christ there at Pentecost he poured out his spirit he established his church there at the cross when he rose again he preached the truth they were built on the foundation he said he that hears these words of mine and dozen billion on the rock the truth is the rock but he might well they had a during that the question is during the time of Jesus wasn't the sanctuary cleanse during the time of Christ they did have their national feasts and they had what they call the Day of Atonement we call it Yom Kippur so they'd have a cleansing of the sanctuary so the physical temple was being cleansed so we're not talking about that we're talking about what would happen now the prophecy in Daniel is dealing with this beasts power who comes after Christ who would take the truth of the new church and defile it see the Romans physically destroyed the earthly temple in 70 AD but pagan what he called papal Rome destroyed the spiritual truth that started in 538 so you got another dual prophecy here and in Matthew 24 Jesus is not only talking about time of trouble the Apostles would go through talks about a time of trouble the church would go through so you had several dual prophecies happening there okay so said the sanctuary would be cleansed now our because our charismatic friends believe that the sanctuary is going to be cleansed I think one needs to be rebuilt another reason they think it needs to be rebuilt is based on this next verse I'm going to give you second Thessalonians 2 verse 3 it's prophecy about the beast power second Thessalonians 2 verse 3 let no man deceive you by any means for that day speaking the second coming will not come except there come a falling away first let me just pause there for a moment Paul is speaking so this is not talking about before Paul are you with me Mike I want you to make sure your kitchen what I'm saying here because it's answering to one of the questions you asked okay well I want you to get back to this is can help answer Daniel 813 second Thessalonians 2:3 Paul is saying Paul lives after Jesus enough after his death says there's gonna be a falling away he's talking about a falling away in the church not falling away in the world the world's fallen and he says in that falling away the man of sin is going to be revealed the son of perdition who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God that's what it says in Daniel this beast power would exalt himself above God or that is worshipped so that he as God sits in the temple of God showing himself that He is God now when Paul says this Jesus had already died the purpose for the earthly temple was over with so he Paul wasn't expecting this beast power to set himself up in the earthly temple what is he talking about well our charismatic friends see in order for the beast power to sit in the temple of God they take it a little very literally they say well they're gonna have to rebuild the Jewish temple but how many of you have Jewish friends do any of you know any Jewish friends and sacrifice lamps when was the last time you saw Jewish people sacrificing lambs do you ever hear any of them clamoring now if the Jews have not been sacrificing lambs for nineteen hundred years how do they get forgiveness is this an answer a question okay a sacrifice I've heard of that before that's not normal that'll cover him all right let me repeat he says he he knows yeah some wave a a chicken over their head I don't know it's not like quite a lamb not quite the Passover instructions well they sacrificed chickens and in lots of places anyway a wave offering so the reason I'm saying that is you're gonna hear an awful lot more from evangelical Christians about building a temple than you will from juice I've been to Israel a couple of times and I have never run into a strong movement in Israel to rebuild the temple first of all what's on the what's on the property where the temple once stood right now it's called the mosque of Omar sometimes known as the Dome of the rock which is the third most sacred place in Islam what do you think would happen if the the nation of Israel brought bulldozers in to level that and build a Jewish temple right now when you've got about a billion Muslims in the world what do you think would happen do the Jews want to commit suicide no this is not a prophecy about there being a rebuilding of the Jewish temple but if what I'm saying to you is true if there's another temple let's suppose that that temple is talking about the one that we've just been reading about you are living stones what don't you know year the temple of God the body of Christ I'll raise up a temple and the devil is wanting to sit in the temple of God showing himself he's got putting himself over the church now you know that happened all through the Dark Ages when a man says it he's to be worshipped as God when man says that he can forgive sins when a man says that he decides who is saved and who is lost a person is putting themself in the template when a man sits on a throne is carried on a golden leader when people kiss his feet a man putting himself in the temple of God being worshipped as God this is what this is talking about but everyone is waiting for a physical temple okay so first I want to ask that I did I make a strong case that there may still be another sanctuary on earth right now so when you read 2300 days and then the sanctuary will be cleansed we've shown you that there's a sanctuary in heaven Hebrews high-priest you read in Revelation I saw the temple of God open in heaven I did a search tonight anyone want to guess how many times does the word temple appear in Revelation that's a good guess fifty-two Karen says she's just guessing that's a while I guess if you just used the word temple I think it's sixteen there's a few times you find the word tabernacle you were gonna say that no fifty-two times no but it's one of the it's there's more temple and revelation where does the vision of Isaiah take place I see a chapter 6 in the year King Uzziah died I saw the Lord High and lifted up sitting on the throne and the glory Lord filled the temple where does the vision of Ezekiel take place how about the vision of or at least one of the visions of Zechariah where he sees these two olive Thrones olive trees by the throne of God and Daniel I saw one like the Son of Man coming to the Ancient of Days isn't it interesting how all these apocalyptic prophecies are in the context of the temple so there's no question there's a heavenly temple it's the dwelling place of God and the earthly temple you've got golden wallpaper in the tabernacle and you've got golden angels they're models of the heavenly where you've got real angels by the throne of God and but it's also talking about your body's a temple now I don't want to take this too far but it's interesting in the temple on earth was there water for cleansing your bodies have a lot of water in the temple there was a fire to your bodies that every moment you're alive are consuming the energy one of the ways you know you're dead is when you cease to consume energy there's a fire burning in the temple it's true yourselves you're burning energy with their foods stored in the earthly temple do our body store food we won't talk about how much variant amounts about we do was there a light in the temple Bible says the light of the body is the eye and was there a spiritual thing in the smoke that went up in the temple Bible talks about the spirit of man there's something ethereal about the way we think that science can't figure out how we hold thoughts and was there a holy place that would be this is the Holy of Holies I word I've hidden in my heart that I might not sin this is the heart of the Bible as a man thinks in his heart so easy you think with this right so actually I did hear there's been some studies that you actually have brain neurons in your heart muscle have you heard that yeah it's true so yeah anyway so I don't want to take you far yes yeah and there was a there was a boundary around the sanctuary and we've got skin we got borders if you didn't have borders it'd be pretty scary right and so people have said you know it's very important and what were what would happen if you brought an unclean sacrifice into the temple are we supposed to take unclean food into us and so you know this is I don't like I said I don't want to take it too far but this I've heard some interesting Studies on the health message in the sanctuary that I think have some validity to them so not only are you a temple but God has a his church around the world he dwells among them and he wants to fill them with his spirit as he did on Pentecost all right with that in mind 2300 days the sang Shore will be cleansed now what happened in heaven in 1844 the starting point of course is going back to 457 BC when you go 2300 days a year in prophecy hey let me give you one more verse I didn't hear pastor Shawn or Pastor John we get really confused here at Central because we got a pastor Shawn Pastor John yeah Granite Bay thank you see I get confused too Pastor John Pastor John and Pastor John and Doug I'm real easy but the where do we get a day for a year and Ezekiel numbers I want to give you a third one New Testament Luke chapter 13 they came to Jesus after John the Baptist had been executed and they said you know pilots our King Herod you know what he did to John the Baptist Jesus said go tell that Fox I teach and do cures and cast out devils today and tomorrow and the third day I'll be completed now this happened six months into Jesus ministry he did not teach and preach three more days Jesus is making a prophecy how much longer did he teach and preach three more years I forget the first Luke chapter 13 Luke go tell that Fox look it up I'm Dyslexic with numbers but as someone finds that you can just call it out go tell that Fox type in the word Fox you don't find it that many times in Luke Luke 32 13 32 thank you alright so a days here in prophecy you come to 1844 the sanctuary will be cleansed Christ entered his last component of the heavenly Ministry in 1844 anyone have any video of that how do you prove that I think you can prove it from the Bible we entered the last phase of the church which is called Laodicea what does leotis I mean judging of the people last age of the church history but it's really hard to prove by pointing horizontally that that happened but if you say did anything happen with the church on earth in 1844 ah that's a lot easier to prove I believe everything that's happening in heaven but I think sometimes we neglect to say what happened on earth in 1844 now some of the pioneers didn't even talk about it because they were living it out probably didn't even think about it you know right in the middle of it happening up until 1844 where's there a truth that had been cast to the ground remember what the Beast would do cast the truth to the ground where's there a truth that was cast to the ground about baptism do you know that even Calvin had people put to death because they believed in baptism by immersion John Calvin had others executed for that but we believe in baptism by immersion that we found out you know those Baptists those primitive Baptists and Anabaptist they were right and what about the punishment of the wicked was the truth cast to the ground about what happens when you die the idea that you go right your heaven or hell before the judgment there's so much missed or that God tortures people through all eternity at the moment of death before the judgment or the resurrection was that a truth that was cast to the ground or the idea that the living can communicate with the dead or the idea that you can continue sinning and still be saved or the idea that the Ten Commandments have been nailed to the cross and you don't need to keep them anymore pick your doctrine that you have to confess your sins to a man or that there's a purgatory or a limbo I mean a lot of truth was cast to the ground but in 1844 because of the great disappointment and keep in mind those were Adventists back then they were not seventh-day Adventist some of the evidence didn't exist they were mostly sunday keepers but they were sincere Christians that were reading their Bible they were from Presbyterian Baptist Methodist's Congregationalist Church of God you know all across the board Church of England and they all they had all been kind of rejected and God used that great disappointment to bring them together they got together and they said wow what happened maybe we've misunderstood some things what is this sanctuary and they started to pray and to study together and out of that they said you know we've been wrong about some things and the various truths that these people had they brought together Joseph Bates and if you read the autobiography of a Joseph Bates now you ought to read that that's an amazing story he you know ran away it's like you know you better than fiction became a cabin boy and ended up getting shipwrecked and he got pressed into the British Navy and just had all these exciting adventures ended up becoming his own captain and he was one of the first captains that says there's gonna be no alcohol on our ship that was unheard of back then this is before prohibition how many of you have ever eaten lima beans do you know how you got lima beans cuz a captain named Joseph Bates took a load of cargo down around the South America he dropped it off in Lima Peru he didn't want to go back empty and among the things they gave him or beans from Lima and he brought him up to San Francisco and they became called they couldn't say to Lima they called him lima beans joseph bates and you could also blame adventist for cornflakes and other things but he said no smoking on his ship then he said he was studying the bible then he said no cursing on his ship he had a hard time recruiting the crew it's true then he said no stimulants no coffee no tea on his ship he was a great health reformer P by the way lived a very long time so he brings this health message to the group and he just kept hammering away and even Ellen White and James is he's taking this stuff too far finally she got a vision that captain Bates was right and you had a Baptist Rachel Oakes that helped present the Sabbath truth and Joseph Bates also accepted and presented the Sabbath truth they got the truth from the Baptist about baptism by immersion in 1844 it was a year of some of the greatest turmoil in history that time when we began the the last age of the church let me just share a few things with you you realize up until the French Revolution every nation in the world believed in a God of some sort or another after the French Revolution atheism was born and it was in 1844 Darwin went on his trip with the Beagle you've heard maybe about that went down to the Galapagos Islands and he wrote his draft of the Origin of Species which spawned evolution and what is most of the first world believe now about origins I started in 1844 it was in 1844 that Karl Marx developed his political philosophy found in his manifest communist manifesto by the way it's interesting that Darwin's father was a pastor Karl Marx father was a rabbi and the way I take that back he was Jewish and his father moved from one community to another and because he saw that Judaism was very popular in this community he announced his family one day after being very devout Jews he says we're gonna become Christians now and he did it purely for business reasons and that's so devastated young Karl that he said religion is the opiate of the masses but as 1844 that he did that another religion was born how many of you have heard of the Baha'i faith the bahá'í faith began to study the prophecies in Daniel chapter 8 now of course this is a totally independent of the Miller right movement they studied Daniel chapter 8 and after doing all their calculations you know what they came up with the conclusion for that prophecy is 1844 you can I remember when I was a hippie someone gave me a Baha'i book and I was reading it right around the time I was reading the great controversy and I saw that and I thought I can't believe it and they came up with the same date not that it's significant the YMCA was founded in England in 1844 it's just interesting that Joseph Smith was killed by a mob I think in Michigan 1844 and Brigham Young was elected president sort of became the the Moses for the Mormon movement move them all to Utah looking for the new promised land where they want to be persecuted for their faith between 1821 in 1845 a very eloquent Jewish Minister named Joseph wolf according to his journals he proclaimed the Lord's speedy Advent in Palestine Egypt Mesopotamia Persia Georgia throughout the Ottoman Empire you got to read about Joseph wolf it's an incredible story he nearly died from persecution several times a Jewish convert Greece Arabia Turkestan Hindustan that's India Holland Scotland Ireland Constantinople Jerusalem Saint holding at New York City to all denominations you know how hard it was to travel back then through his study he was convinced the prophecy of daniel chapter 8 added up to 1844 and he preached thee that the law he thought the lord was coming then also there was a famous artist who developed some electrical technology and he finally tested his electronic method of communication in 1844 his name was Samuel Morse if you ever seen his artwork is he a great artist you be surprised to find out that he's the one who invented Morse code because he was a very good artist and the first message ever sent digitally how many of you sent a digital message today the first message sent digitally was in 1844 and you know what the message was he quoted from the Bible he said what hath God wrought because now messages could travel the speed of light it's interesting first message we're transmitting messages digitally right now it's kind of interesting you can go around the world and half-a-second approximately and this was a very significant year not only because something was happening in heaven but because Christ entered his final work he brought together a final movement I believe that right now in the world today God has raised up it's not just another denomination there's a movement of prophecy and it is the seventh-day Adventist Church because he brought people together from many different Christian persuasions indeed some were no Christians at all and pulled them back and said let's get back to the Bible God was looking for people near the end of time that would return to the faith that was given to the Apostles now he's not done cleansing the sanctuary in heaven is he what's gonna happen when he's done have you read Daniel chapter 12 at that time Michael will stand up the Great Prince that stands for the children of thy people and there will be a time of trouble such as and it never has been since there was a nation even at the same time and at that time thy people will be delivered great time of trouble deliverance and then he did sleep in the dust of the earth will awake resurrection so when Michael stands up you ever seen when a judge enters the courtroom everyone stands up I won't ask you how you know that and and then the judge sits down and then you sit down when he sits down he's listening to evidence when he stands up don't bother talking any more because he the decision has been rendered he hits the gavel he stands out the judgment is closed at that point so we're living right now at a time we don't know how much time is left God is not done with the cleansing work in heaven he's not done cleansing his people on earth I believe there's going to be a great shaking and a time of trouble that you're gonna see in the last days there'll be some trouble in the church where's there trouble in the church in Christ's time where's the trouble in the church in the times of Elijah well one more thing for 1260 days during the time of Elijah there was a famine the prophets had to flee into the wilderness some of them were hidden caves and King Ahab the government had married Jezebel a pagan queen and they brought in pagan practices and they mixed it up with the worship of Jehovah and until they had this big showdown on Mount Carmel there's a terrible persecution Jesus preached for 1260 days and his own people the church turned him over to the state then you read in Revelation that for 1260 days this woman this harlot in revelation 17 commits fornication with the kings of the earth the government's persecutes the prophets of God who flee into the wilderness where God miraculously feeds them you see a pattern some have wondered will there be another three and a half year period of time at the end and I don't know that but I just see that there's a pattern that's going on he's not done cleansing his church on earth and when he is done and he stands up and cases are closed so to speak so now I've I just did a great big rapid information dump on you to try to build a strong case that we don't need to wait from them build a Jewish temple this prophecy is talking about God's church on earth that the beasts power would sit over calling for worship from the people that Jesus said I'm gonna build a spiritual house that we are living stones in that house what don't you know that ye are the temple of God and I haven't even quoted all the verses here let me give you another one revelation 3:12 he who overcomes I will make him a pillar in the temple of my god now wait a second I've heard kids saying I want to go to heaven I want to play with the Lions and I want to go and I want to stand on the golden streets I never heard anyone say I can't wait to go to heaven be a pillar now pillars part of the temple you know there are two great pillars of the entrance of Solomon's Temple they even had names for them they were supposed to give glory to God as the priest entered you remember when it says in Isaiah that I heard the voice of God Isaiah chapter 6 and the pillars shook at the voice of him that spoke so there's a spiritual house there revelation speaks in spiritual terms we are living stones it even talks about them being pillars so when we talk about the temple being cleansed it's not just the temple in heaven it's also the temple on earth being cleansed from the damage done during the abomination of desolation that happened during the dark ages all right now I wanted to give you some time to ask questions about what I presented in particular make them short so I can repeat them are there any yes Terry good friend yeah so when Jesus died there's no longer need to sacrifice blood certainly on earth and what is what blood is Jesus presenting in heaven well he's his own blood yeah and so yeah that's why he said your house is left to you desolate that's why the veil was rent in the temple because the purpose for that earthly temple it was it's over it's nailed to the cross and I might add the need to keep the annual feasts that all came later connected with the temple that's all part of what's done away with now the Sabbath is part of the Ten Commandments that's different the Sabbath goes back to creation that's different but the other feasts all talk about Christ a comment or question there there are there is still genuine value to the Jewish feasts matter of fact every time we celebrate the Lord's Supper that was during the Passover and we're living in the day of atonement exactly so but it's not oh it's not once a year thing anymore now it's an age that we're living in okay I saw another hand yes when did the desolation begin when we talked about the abomination of desolation that's another dual prophecy let me tell you why Jesus said in Matthew 24 when you see the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the prophet stand in the Holy Place what those have been Judea flee in the mountains and Luke he says when you see Jerusalem encompassed with armies let those that be in Judea flee in the mountains the disciples in Matthew 24 and in Luke 21 they're asking three questions when is the destruction of the temple what are the signs of your coming in the end of the world the temple was desolated by the Romans pagan Rome destroyed the temple and desolated in AD 70 Jerusalem was surrounded by armies the believers were given a brief window to escape and flee into the hills and historians say no Christians perished in the destruction Jerusalem papal Rome desolated the spiritual temple when they began to use political power in 538 Justinian gave the Bishop of Rome the Pope an army to basically enforce religion head of the church was moved to Rome and from 538 to 1798 there was a desolating of the temple and the sacrifice and salvation that was happening during that time so you got the Romans desolating the physical Jewish temple not one stone left upon another I might add just one more interesting prophecy Jesus said this generation will not pass away until there's not one stone upon another Christ said that in about 30 ad forty years later a Jewish generation the Romans destroyed the temple the very I think accurate time prophecy there but then there's a spiritual temple that was under attack that began with this you know great apostasy during the Dark Ages ok yes well that's the will the call to come out of Babylon be part of the cleansing process yes and our second angels message that we're gonna get into in our study our midweek study is going to be babbling his fallen and says fallen fallen in Revelation 18 come out of her I'm not going to get into that now because we've talked among the pastor's about how we want to divide up our Babylon studies so we're gonna we're gonna have fun with that yes raka and says no man can enter yeah in in Exodus 40 and in chronicles where it talks about the temple of Lord being filled with glory and no man could empty enter I do believe there's going to be a lasting analogy to that those were good things in the Bible that was a sign of God's favor when his glory filled his house in those two instances so I would look for a sign of him filling his people with the spirit and a good thing for the church during that time there'll be a time when no
