Oh ok..but I thought we were all saints here. You a saint are you not? Christians are saints.
I do not know who you are asking, but YES I am a saint because I am a born again Christian.

It is all about being ANTI or AGAINST CHRIST!
Which is being rebuilt.Which is where? Iraq.....
Interesting stuff John. ThanksI know you already know this and all... I just want to make sure we put it out there....
Remember that the greek "Anti" is the same as the latin "Vicar" - it does not carry the connotation of "Enemy of" so much as "Substitute for"....
So - we are not talking about someone who is proclaiming his ability to destroy Jesus - but rather someone who is going to try to sit on His throne and proclaim himself to be God... He is going to come claiming the power and authority of Messiah, and he is going to be doing mighty works to back it up....... Those who do not agree that this fellow is god on earth thereby set themselves up as being "Heretics" - and thus must be destroyed per the usual garden variety methods....
This all has the effect that he is in reality "Against" Jesus because he claims to BE Messiah.....
On the personality.... Remember - there are TWO guys....
"The Beast" rises out of "The sea" - Aka the gentile world...
"The False prophet" rises out of "The land" - aka Israel....
Then - there's also "The harlot" to contend with - the great apostate "Religious institution" that will support anything that the rulers proclaim for a slice of the pie....
This forms the great, unholy trinity - Beast, False prophet, and Harlot....
Thanks
The word is "traditions", and that has nothing to do with the subject at hand. Personal revelations that the Saints receive are not "traditions". Wearing particular color of vestments during certian liturgical seasons are an example of a "tradition".God love ya brother but that is the problem with triditions.

Good post @JohnC....but actually, I thought the unholy trinity was the AC (beast), the false prophet, and the father of lies? It's interesting when you see that the geography matches the biblical geography.....Persia (Iran), Babylon (Iraq), Israel (Israel). Someone define an apostate Jew for me? Someone who once practiced Judaism (in their lifetime) and then changes to Satan? Or someone who has some Jewish bloodline?

A fake temple? We dont need a temple, Jesus said the one in Jersalem was going to be destroyed..and it was, and raised up in three days...and it was, he meant his body..which is the temple of the holy spirit.
We dont need to be building temples, Jesus builds the church.
When the heavenly Jerasulem touchees down, there wont be a temple like there used to be or like what israelis are building now..because Jesus had already been sacrificed.
So..whatever is there now, is just built by the hands of man. God will not dwell there.
I go with revived eastern leg of the Roman empire. (islam). Not that I'm any finance wiz, but isn't Greece's status an unstable element of the EU? I think if the US economy fails, won't the EU and most of the west fail? @Major, I am curious and have respect for your opinion...why do you still think the EU will give rise to the beast's economic system? Cihina is now the #1 economic power. I dunno...I have a hard time thinking the AC will be an apostate Jew. I sorta think the AC will be born evil and have a hard time seeing someone who truly practices Judaism or Christianity for that matter, turning into the AC. They may pretend to be a Jew or Christian, I suppose. And I suppose I could buy a "secular Jew" which seems to be a popular phrase these days. Not trying to pick an argument - just wondering.
YES, there will be a temple.
Zechariah prophesies that the sacrificial system will be reinstated in the Millennium. That is why in these extremely late days, Israel is preparing all sanctuary article, priestly robes, and has prepared building blocks for the new temple, made ready for the right time---coming soon, to rebuild the temple, where eventually King Jesus will rule from.
Zechariah 14 tells us we will celebrate the feasts days along with the sacrifices, these will both be reinstituted in the millennium.
Zechariah 14:16-18
16 In the end, the enemies of Jerusalem who survive the plague will go up to Jerusalem each year to worship the King, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, and to celebrate the Festival of Shelters. 17 Any nation in the world that refuses to come to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, will have no rain. 18 If the people of Egypt refuse to attend the festival, the Lord will punish them with the same plague that he sends on the other nations who refuse to go.
Read Ezekiel 44 to chapter 46:24 and see for yourself.
There will be a third temple/tabernacle...
