US politician hopes to speed building of third temple
Hey, it's not prophecy. It is a self-fulfilled prophecy.

I believe that prophecies and visions were warnings of the future that could be avoided and still can.
As you know, I believe in the prophecies. But, I also believe that God gave us freewill. So, I support what you've just said. According to freewill, we can either hasten, or push away our ultimate destruction. It's up to each of us.

Don't Jews believe that the third temple must be built in order for the Messiah to come?
They still believe a Messiah is coming to save them!

Well I believe that religious fanatics will do anything to bring the mythical prophecies of the bible to reality.
I am not a bible follower, but I am very aware that the ancients had visions of the future even if Christianity manipulated them.

Believe it or not, I think this is where the original temple was located,
at the base of the Menkaure pyramid. Only it was called Mt. Moriah at that time...
the remains fit precisely according to 1Kings 6&7, having 3 rows of great stone,
8 & 10 cubits long. The "nose" of the complex is precisely the foundation dimensions
required to build a 60 x 20 cubit structure.
hmmmm

Interesting! I never looked into this theory. I wonder if there is anything to it? Please post some more info if you have it.

How do you propose that one would 'self-fulfill' all Hell breaking loose in Revelations? You'd have to know how to do some pretty super-natural stuff. Also, why would a Christian want to 'quicken' the process. I don't know about my fellow Christians out there, but that would sure put me in a pinch for time. It takes a while to help people. With all this happening, it'd make my job a lot harder. If it is to be, it will be, but I don't see why Christians would have any conspiracy.

It is not 'one' that would 'self-fulfill' all hell breaking loose, it is a group of people in high places doing everything they can to achieve it. For starters, they would build the Temple of Solomon exactly where an Islamic holy site will be. What more do you want?

With Russia selling arms to Syria and problems with Iran's nuclear development, I wonder if this all could be leading to the Gog/Magog war as well (which I think should occur before the rebuilding of the temple).
