Gee, I don’t know what to say in response because whatever I say is going to shake you up even more; but you've been around here long enough to know that categorizing one of my predictions as “spam” is tantamount to chiseling it in stone. If your memory needs prodding, just run a Search on posts accusing me of spamming...you'll find the accusations cluster around predictions of SCOTUS and VP nominees.
And seeing that I have a pretty good track record at predicting the trivial actions and desires of my fellow republicans, what makes you think I don’t have the same ability to predict the actions based on the deeply-held beliefs of other religious fundamentalists?
But, putting the predictions of jmfcst aside…
The nation of Israel serves of God’s timekeeper in biblical history and prophecy, from Genesis to Revelation and all points in between. In other words, the events surrounding Israel allow us to know our place in time within God’s timetable for the world.
Both old and new testaments state that the events of the end-times will be centered on the Temple in Jerusalem. That spot of land is the same place Abraham was instructed to offer Isaac as a sacrifice in Genesis, even though it required a journey of three days. It is the same place God instructed David to make preparations for the Temple. It is the same Temple where Jesus was dedicated, and the very same vicinity where he ascended, as well as being the location where he will return and overthrow the Antichrist who will use the Temple as his headquarters.
And that same plot of land is at the heart of the modern day Jewish/Muslim conflict – a conflict that has its roots in Gen 21:10, more than 4000 years ago.
The temple will be rebuilt. Whether the rebuilding is through war or through peace is irrelevant compared to the events that will follow its rebuilding.
