Will there be a Idol (natural image) of the antichrist standing in the holy place?   
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Jesus said, "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou (you) that killest (have killed) the prophets, and stonest (have stoned) them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth (gathers) her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. And Jesus said unto them, (the disciples) See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?(Matt.23:37-39; 24:1-4)

I.  There were two questions that the disciples asked
     As Jesus "sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when
     shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
     A.  Tell us, when shall these things be?(Matt.23:37-39; 24:1-4)
           1.  This question is answered in Matt.24:15-23 This was the 70 AD destruction of the city and the
                 sanctuary that Daniel prophesied would happen. (Dan.9:26 / Review:Abomination of Desolation)
           2.  This answer begins with a warning. "When ye (you) therefore shall see the abomination of
                desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand (standing) in the holy place, (whoso readeth,
                let him understand:)
                a.  Some take this verse (Matt.25:15) and place it in the end times when the man of sin (antichrist) is
                     revealed and places an idol of himself in the rebuilt Temple of Solomon, in Jerusalem. However,
                     this answer to "when shall these things be? (Matt.24:3) which is HISTORY to us. (Review:
                     Abomination of Desolation)
                b. Why would Jesus say "to stand in the holy place" (Matt.24:15)
                     (1)  When there was no earthly (made with man's handsActs.7:47-48, 24:17) holy place in 70 AD,
                           nor will there be in the Tribulation (Matt.24:15)

                     (2)  Look at the History of the earthly Temple / House of God / Sanctuary - Holy Place
                            (a)  First there was the Tabernacle of Moses (Exod.25-40)
                            (b)  Then expanded with the Tabernacle of David ()
                            (c)   Then expanded again with the Revealtion of Solomon's Temple (1Chron.17:1-15; 22:19)
                            (d)  There was nothing greater than Solomon's Temple (2Chron.5:1-14;)
                                .  This Temple / House was destroyed built back destroyed again built back the poluted with the wisdom of man
                            (e)   Until a greater than Solomon came (Jesus) who said "I will build my Church" which was the
                                    reality (fulfillment) of all three structures. (Matt.16:18, Eph.5:26.
                     (3)  NOTE: Jesus did not say stand in the Most Holy Place
                   
     B.  What shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
          1.  This question is answered in (Matt.24:4-14, 24-51)
           2.  .

II.  There will be idolatry in the Church in the end time (but not a physical idol)
     John was told to "Write the things which thou hast seen, (Rev.1:1-20) and the things which
     are, (Rev.2-3) and the things which shall be hereafter (future to John). (Rev.4:11)[00] After
     this John told to come up hither (here) and I will shew (show) thee (you) things that must be
     hereafter (future to John). John said, "I beheld (in the future Rev.4:1) a beast(the man of sin /
     son of perdition / antichrist) rise out of the sea, then another beast (the false prophet
     Rev.19:20-21) coming up out of the earth (Rev.13:11). This other beast (thefalse prophet
     Rev.13:1-18; 19:20-21) "deceiveth (deceives) them that dwell on the earth by the means of
     those miracles which he (the false prophet) had power to do in the sight of the beast;
     (antichrist) [00] saying that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound
     by a sword, and did live (Rev.13:14)

     A.  This false prophetis a false prophetic ministry
 
           John said, "I beheld (while he was in the spirit, in heaven) another beast
           (counterfeiting the true prophet / propheticministry of Eph.4:11-16) coming
           up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake (prophes-
          -ied) as a dragon. And he (the false prophet) exerciseth (exercises) all the
           power of the first beast (antichrist) before him, and (the false prophet /
          prophetic ministry) causeth (causes) the earth and them which dwell therein to
          worship the first beast, (the antichrist) whose deadly wound was healed. And
           he doeth (does) great wonders, (lying signs and wonders 2Thes.2:9) so that he
           maketh (makes) fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
           And deceiveth (deceives) them that dwell on the earth by the means of those
          miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; (antichrist) saying
           (prophetic voice) to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an
          image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live (Rev.13:11-18)

          1.  Why is he called a false prophet?
 

                a.  Because he will be a fallen (apostate) prophetic ministry that will fall
                     out from the last day Church with the man of sin (the antichrist / beast)
                     when he is revealed. (2Thes.2:3-9, 1John.2:16-18; 4:1-4) These two (the
                     beast and the false prophet) will counterfeit the ministry of the true
                     apostle and prophet. (Eph.4:11-16)

                b.  Look at the counterfeit pattern

                     (1)  The dragon gives power to the beast (antichrist)
                            This is a corrupt copy to be just like God the Father gave power to Jesus Christ and gave gifts unto
                            men. (Eph.4:1-10) Lucifer (dragon, that old serpent called the Devil, and Satan Rev.12:9) will give
                            gifts unto men (false gifts) just "like the most High" (Isa.14:11-14)

                     (2)  The beast gives power to the false prophet

                            This is a corrupt copy just "like the Most High"counterfeit Jesus said

                     (3)  The other beast (false prophet) causes them that dwell on the earth to worship the beast, who
                            is empowered by the dragon.

                             Note: This
               b. A spiritual counterfeit of the Godhead
                     (1)  The Father
                     (2)  The Son
                     (3)  The Holy Spirit
                c.  This is spiritual - 2Cor.11:1-15
               
          2.  Whoare "they?"
                a.  These are those that dwell on the earth. (Rev.13:14)
                b.  They should make an image to the beast.
                c.  There is nothing about a physical idol standing in the Holy Place of a
                      rebuilt Temple in the City of Jerusalem, in the Book of Daniel or in the
                      Book of Revelation.                   
                      (1) 

          3. Exercise all the power and purpose of the first beast (antichrist)

                a.  This first beast (antichrist) is "another JESUS, Gospel and Spirit.
                     (1)  Another spiritual Church (within the true Church) that he is building
                             (Matt.16:18, Eph.2:20-22, 1Peter.2:5, 1John.2:16-1; 4:1-4)
                           (a)  The tares amongst the wheat (Matt.13) bundled up / burned
                           (b)  False teachers Prophets (2Peter.2:1-)
                           (c)   Certain men have crept into the Church (Jude1:1-7)
                           (d)  Spots like Cain. Balaam and Korah (Jude.1:10-12) which will be
                                  cleansed / removed / burned in the fire from the Glorious Church.                               
                     (2)  Another Church with the gifts of the Spirit, just "LIKE" apostles trans-
                           -forming themselves as the ministers of righteousness. (2Cor.11:1-15)
                     (3)  No marvel for Satan transforms himself as an angel of light
                b.  A corrupt version of the Godhead (Trinty)
                     (1)  The Dragon - Wants to be like God
                     (2)  The antichrist - A counterfeit of THE LORD JESUS CHRIST / The
                           MESSIAH
                     (3)  The false prophet - The false anointing (Warnings against copying
                            the anointing oil) Jesus warned about false Christs / anointings. (Mat.24)

          2.  This false prophet causeth (causes) the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first      
                beast, whose deadly  wound was healed. The seed of the woman Gen.3:15-16, Rom.16:20. Rev.13:1-3
                a.  Deadly wound healed
                b.  Seed of the woman (Rev.12:1-17

          3.  This false prophet does great wonders, so that he maketh (makes) fire come down from heaven
                on the earth in the sight of men.
                a.  A challenge / counterfeit of the Two witnesses of Chapter.11 Moses and Elijah
                b.  Lying signs and wonders / Pharoah's magicans Exod.4
                c.  Fire coming down / Eljiah / Disciples - wrong (corrupt )way

          4.  This false prophet deceives them that dwell on the earthby the means of those miracles which he
                had power to do in the sight of the beast. (antichrist) Then "saying...) Counterfeit Prophetic ministry /
                Like a Lamb, but really a "wolf in sheep's clothing" (Matt.7:15, Acts.20:29) / speaks Language) like a
                dragon.
                a.  When a prophet says / comes to pass / then let's go after other gods. REJECT God is proving you
                b.  We are to grow up into Him (JESUS) who is Prophet, Priest and King.
                     (1)  Prophet (Deut.18:15, Acts.3:22)
                     (2)  Priest (Heb.6:
                     (3)  King (1Peter.2:9, Rev.1:6; 5:10)
                     (4)  Because we (The Church( are in Christ, we will be functioning with JESUS as He functions as
                           Prophet, Priest and King.

           5.  This false prophet prophecied ("saying" Rev.13:14) to them that dwell on the earth, that they should
                make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
                a.  Yea hath God said about the promise that the serpents head would be crushed
                b.  Head - control center of the Body
                c.  The prophecy (i.e, the prophetic ministry) caused people to make an image (idol) to the beast
                     (antichrist). If this was natural then we would have the antichrist sitting in the Temple of God along
                      with an image of himself.(2Thes.2:4, Rev.13:14)

           6.  This false prophet (Prophetic ministry) has power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the
                image of the beast should both speak / voice.
                a.  Idols / nothing / dumb - no voice (1Cor.14:1) We are coming to the IMAGE OF CHRIST with the Gifts
                     of the Spirits. (Rom.8:28-29) Voice (1Cor.14:1-)
                b.  Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, G1497 even as ye were led.
                     (1Co 12:2) Therefore this speaking / voice is demonic (familiar spirits)
                b.  Out of the mouth of the Dragon, Beast and false prophets / unclean spirits / by the means of the
                     miracles to gather the World to Armagaddon (The return of JESUS)

           7.  This false prophet (Prophetic ministry) will cause that as many as would not worship the image of
                 the beast should be killed. Remember: This false prophet is empowered bt the antichrist / false apostle,
                who is inspired by the Dragon / Satan who said he would be "LIKE")
                a.  It is a copy / counterfeit: If you save your life now you will loose it (later / future)
                b.  A corrupt counterfeit for of Rom.12:1-2 Lay your all on the Altar
                c.  This is spiritual, that has natural consequences

           8.  This false prophet (prophetic ministry) will cause "all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and
                bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads. Remember: This false prophet is
                empowered bt the antichrist / false apostle, who is inspired by the Dragon / Satan who said he would
                be "LIKE")
                a.  Counterfeit redemption - The dragon reconciling them that dwell on the earth to himself copying
                      JESUS CHRIST
                b.  Mark in their right hand -
                c.   Mark in their forehead -
 
           9.  This false prophet (prophetic ministry) will cause that no man might buy or sell, save he that had
                the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Remember: This false prophet is
                empowered by the antichrist / false apostle, who is inspired by the Dragon / Satan who said he would
                be "LIKE" the Most High.
                a.  The Mark of his name - a counterfeit of the Mark of the prize of the high calling (Bride)
                b.  Buy or sell (Provision - take not thought of tomorrow / sufficient unto the day thereof is the evil
                     When you are fill in the land don't forget me. (Deut.4:)
                b.  a counterfeit of the true Mark - a counterfeit of "The mark of the prize of the high calling" / Bride
                     (Phil.3:15) Completely sold out to the Bridegroom CHRIST
                c. The counterfeit bride is seen in MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT - antichrist;s bride
            
         10.  Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number 
                of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six." (Rev13:11-18) Remember: This false
                prophet is empowered bt the antichrist / false apostle, who is inspired by the Dragon / Satan who said
                he would be "LIKE")
                a.  Count the cost / Fear of the Lord (Heb.11:7 Noah feared)
                b.  The number of a man that will shew himself that he is God (Deity) 2Thes.2
                c.  Body Soul and Spirit (2Cor.11:1-4) Completely sold out to the ANTICHRIST because they have no love
                     for the truth, God will send them strong delusion that they will believe a lie. (2Thes.2:9)



















          The beast is  the antichrist (a counterfeit ofthe Body Christ / apostate church). The dragon gives power
           to the beast / antichrist / who gives power to the false prophet (the other "beast"). This is "another Jesus

           and..another Gospel...another Gospel (2Cor.11:1-15) The false prophet is like a Lamb. (Rev.13:11)A counter-
           -feit of the Godhead (The Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost. (John.16:10-15)

           1.  The power
                a.  The antichrist (beast) is empowered by the dragon / Old serpent / the Devil and Satan who wants
                     to be "like" the Most High / God, The Father (Rev.13:4) Who wants to be worship (Matt.4:9) A copy 
                     of Deity (2Thes.2:4, John.1:1-14; 17:1-21/ Isa.42:)
                b.  I (dragon / Old serpent / the Devil and Satan) will be like the Most High (Isa.14:13)
                c.  Spoke as a dragon / Old serpent / the Devil and Satan (Rev.12:9; 13:11)
           2.  And his purpose  
                a.  Going to sit in the congregation on the sides of the North, Mt. Zion / Tab. of David (Ark of the
                     covenant / MUSIC / Worship caused the people (that dwell on the earth) to be conformed to the
                     IMAGE (Isa.14:) a counterfeit of the pattern of the Ark of the Covenant, where God governed the
                     Church in the wilderness in all things. (Exod.25:8-) Man of Sin will sit in the Temple.
                     - The Temple is a spiritual Temple
                     - The Ark of the Covenant / Throne of God / Where JESUS IS SEATED at the right hand of God
                b.  Is to be
                c.  .
                d.  .
           3.  What is the PURPOSE OF GOD?
                a.  To present to His only begotten Son (JESUS)  a Bride
                b.  .
                c.  .
                d.  .

     B.   Why does the beast have a false prophet (copy of a SPIRITUAL GIFT) working with him?

           - This is because he wants "to be like" The true prophets that God has set in the Church
           - Copying the true apostle and true prophet that are responsible for the foundation JESUS CHRIST
           - TODAY the foundations are being questioned! "Hath God said..."
           - The Church (pictured by Eve 2Cor.11:1-4) needs to let her HEAD (JESUS) do the talking (Gen.3:1-6)





The false prophet will cause "them that dwell on the earth" while he is in heavenly places to worship the image (idol forbidden to worship anything / idol / image like the Godhead) to the beast (antichrist)

           1A false prophet ministry
  
                To have a false there must be a real. Lucifer's goal was to be "like" (counterfeit) the Most High. (Isa.14:11-14, 2Cor.11:1-15)
                     (2)  The true Prophet works in harmony with the true Apostle (Eph.2:20-2s; 4:11-16, Acts.13:1-4))          
                     (3) 
                     (4) 

                b.  This false prophet is working hand in hand with the beast (antichrist, a counterfeit of Christ "our
                     Apostle and High Priest Heb.3:1)
                    (1)  Apostate counterfeit of the true apostolic and prophetic who laying the foundation, Christ.
                           (i.e. EVERYTHING that Christ is. Eph.2:20-22. 1Cor.3:110-15) The false prophet with the beast (false
                           apostle / antichrist) will counterfeit this to laying a foundation of EVERYTHING that the beast /
                           antichrist
                     (2)  .             

                c.  John writes, that "the spirit of antichrist / beast / counterfeit apostle and High Priest is already in
                   the world (i.e. The 1st. Century) There is a "wrestling" (Eph.6:10-12) happening now that is why we
                     are told not "believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false
                   prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth
                     that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth (or does not confess)
                     not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye
                     have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world." (1John.2:18-19; 4:1-4,
                       2Cor.11:1-15, 1-18, Jude.1:10, 2Peter.2:1-18 / note: Balaam.v.15-16, Ezek.13:1-7, Deut 13:1-5,

           2.  This false prophet causes "them that dwell on the earth" Worship the beast (antichrist)
                a.  John is seeing this while he is in the Spirit, (Rev.1:1-19) in heavenly places. (Rev.4:1, Eph.2:1-8)
                b.  Wants to be like the Most High
                c.  Wanted JESUS to worship him (Matt.4:1-4)

           3.  This false prophet (the other beast Rev.19:20) will say (prophetic voice) "them that dwell on the earth,
                that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
                make an image (idol) - false Prophetic minstry - Note: Balaam (Jude.1:10-15 / Deut.3:1-, 2Peter.2:1-)
                a.  It is the people that make the image / idol
                b.  The Tower of Babel "let us

And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before
     him, and causeth (causes) the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly
     wound was healed. And he doeth (does) great wonders, so that he maketh (makes) fire come down from
     heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth (deceives) them that dwell on the earth by the
     means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell
     on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did
     live. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both
     speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he causeth all, both small and  
     great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no
     man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here
     is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and
     his number is Six hundred threescore and six." (Rev13:11-18)



                 (b)  This false prophet is Like (Isa.14:) a lamb (sheeps clothing Matt.)
                 (c)  This false prophet speaks as a dragon (speaks of another Jesus) - Revisionist - revising the name of
                        Jesus to mean he wants, while using the same terminology
                 (d)  This false prophet exerciseth all the power of the first beast (which is the antichrist, who gets his
                        power from the dragon / Devil)
                 (e)  This false prophet (prophetic ministry) causeth the earth and them (all kindreds, tongues and
                        nations Rev.13:7) to worship the first beast (antichrist) as he sits in the Temple of God,
                        shewing himself that he is God
                 (f)   This false prophet will deceive them (all kindreds, tongues and Nations.v.7 (that dwell on the earth
                        by the means of those miracles saying "that they should make an image to the beast." (Rev.13:14)
                 (g)  This false prophet has power to give life unto the image...that the image to...
                        -  Speak (dumb idols / no voice 1Cor.12)
                        -  Cause kill all those that refused to worship the image (Rev.13:16
                        -  The false prophet causes all both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond
                        -  Mark on right hand or foreheads
                        -  Cannot buy or sell (no commerce) without the mark
                 (h)  This false prophet (prophetic ministry) would make everyone to take the mark and the number
                       of his name.

     B.  This will be during the last days / Tribulation

          However "let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober" (1Thes.5:6). because John says,
          "Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there
         many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. They went out from us, but they were not of us;
          for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might
          be made manifest that they were not all of us. But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all
          things." (1John.2:18-20)
         

































 



































 

     B.  Why would God make this idol and their rebuilt Temple desolate?

     B.  This conclusion comes from 2Thes.2:4 and Rev.13:11-18
                
     C.  However there is no scripture that says God will sanction / bless / place His stamp of approval on the
            rebuilding of the earthly / natural Temple in the City of Jerusalem (Gal.4:21-28)."

     D.  Jesus told the Jews (the children of the flesh of Abraham)

            1.  That their (earthly / natural Temple would be left desolate) [34] (uninhabited) and there would be not
                 one stone left upon another (Matt.23:36; 24:1-4) No mention of being rebuilt. The only Temple that
                 God "inhabits" after the Cross, is the Church (Eph.2:20-22)
            2.  Note how God rent (torn) the Vail in twain (two) confirming that His presence has gone from their
                 building because His name is no longer recorded on the natural building / Temple (Matt.27:50-51)
                 Review: PHASE 4, Page.9
       

      A.  God says that He longer
      dwell's in Houses (Temples) made with hands. (Acts.7:47-48) The Tabernacle of Moses was the first dwelling
      place of God since sin entered the world. (Rom.5:10-12, Exod.25-40) This was confirmed by the cloud covering
      the tent (Tabernacle) and the Glory of God filled the Tabernacle (tent Exod.40:34)

Standing (standing where it ought not) in the Holy Place  which the Church will experience in the fulfillment Feast of Tabernacles. No one could enter except the High Priest which the man of sin wants to be like.

            1.  Beginning with Solomon       2.  Nothing in the Book of Revelation
                  There is NOTHING about a rebuilt natural / early Temple of God in the City of Jerusalem during the
                  Tribulation. Or or an idol of the antichrist. Look at what is happening during the Tribulation.
                 a.  The antichrist will wear out the saints (Dan.7:25)
                 b.  The antichrist will make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over
                       all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose
                       names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
                        (Rev.13:7-8)
                 c.  The Harlot woman will be sitting on the beast (Rev.17)
                 d.  Jerusalem's spiritual condition during the Tribulation is "Sodom and Egypt"
                 e.  There is a reference to the Temple of God (Rev.11:1-2)
                 f.   but this is before the 42 months (Tribulation)
                 g.  but this Temple is measured not destroyed
        
           2.  .
           3.  .

            1.  It is the antichrist that sits in the Temple of God
                      (1)  It does not say a earthly "idol" (image)
                      (2)  What Temple of God?
                             (a)  The earthly Temple
                             (b)  The heavenly Temple / Church
                      (3)  However there is spiritual idolatry in the Church today and shall be in the apostate Church
                            in the time of the end. Compare the Spirit of Christ and the spirit of antichrist.
                  b.  The false prophet(Rev.13:11-18; 19:20)deceiveth (decieves) them that dwell on the earth by
                      the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them
                      that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image /idol[00] to the beast, which had the
                      wound by a sword, and did live.
                      (1)  The image / idol is made by the people
                      (2)  These be thy gods that brought you out of Egypt (Exod.20:)
                      (3)  .

                     Note: The absence of animal sacrifices. This because God's names is not called on them
                      after Christ. The anitchrist is going to come against all that is "called God" because he wants to be
                      "like" God. (2Thes.2:4, Isa.14:11-14, 2Cor.11:1-15)

            2.  Why would God be concerned with a natural idol in a earthly Temple that was left desolate, destroyed,
                 the vail torn in two and His presence gone. Why would God say their is no redemption in animal
                 sacrifices after Christ.

            3.  There is no earthly / natural Temple in Jerusalem, because it was destroyed 70 AD (Historical fact)

                 a.  (Read "Abomination of Desolation Page.7)
                 b.  Historical fact (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Jerusalem_(70_CE)

  
     B.  There is nothing in God's Word that says the antichrist will setan idol of himself in
           the Holy Place of a rebuilt Temple in Jerusalem
         
           1.  Nothing in the Book of Daniel(PHASE 5, Page 1-5)about a natural idol / image
                 a.  There is nothing in the dream that God gave to Nebuchadnezzar prophesying an "idol" of the
                      antichrist being placed an earthly / natural Temple . (Dan.2:1-45)
                 b.  The"little horn" (Dan.7:1-25which is the antichrist) there is nothing in concerning an "idol" being
                      placed in the Temple 
                 c.  There is nothing in the Ram and He Goat vision (Dan.8:1-12) prophesying about an "idol" being
                      placed in the Temple 
                 c.  There is nothing in the prophetic Word concerning the king of the North and South that

                       (Dan.10-11:1-35; 36-45) in the last days (time of the end / time appointed Dan.11:35).

                       Then Daniel was told to "shut up (seal up) the book" (Dan.12:1-13)[49] to the time of the end and
                       the Book of Revelation, where this sealed book is opened. (Rev.5:1-14)  No idol mentioned.

      

     C.  There is an image that the false prophet the causes the people (who have taken the 666 mark) is a spiritual
          counterfeit

                b.  It would require the Temple...
                    To be built in the place that the Lord thy God chooses (Deut.16:16-17, 1Chron.17:1-15; 22:1-19)
                      The "place" for the natural Temple was Jerusalem. However after they  rejected  JESUS as THE
                      MESSIAH they are called (i.e. named) Ishmael (Gal.4:21-28) with a future of being "spiritually
                       called Sodom and Egygpt. (Rev.11:8) How can put His name on Ishmael?

                c.   Also it require God to be double minded...
                    and deny "HIMSELF" (2Tim.2:13, Mal.3:6) because, God's inspired Word (2Tim.3:16-17) says,
                      "Solomon built him an house. Howbeit the most High dwelleth not (or does not dwell) in temples
                      made with hands. (Acts.7:47-48;17:24)

           2.  This is not a strange thing because this is his tactics (wiles / trickery Eph.6:12) deception from the
                inside out.  In fact the spirit of antichrist is ALREADY in the world (1John.2:18-19; 4:1-4)
                a.  Lucifer / Satan / Devil / Serpent fell from the inside out. (Isa.14:11-14, Ezek.28:)
                b.  The wheat and the tares (Mat.13:24-30; 36-43)
                c.   Judas fell from the inside out (Matt.)
                  d.  Certain men have crept in to deceive (Jude.1:1-10)
                  e.  In the Corinthian Church false apostles
                  f.   Greivious wolves came into the Church at Ephesius (  )
                  g.  .

    B.  Nothing mentioned about an "idol"[00] being an "abomination"

 


    C.  If you are going to have an idol you have to have a Temple and animal sarifices to be stopped
         There is nothing said about a rebuilt / nothing about reinstating animal sacrifices

II.  Look at the history of the Temple, beginning with Solomon

 

  A.  During this "reaching over" period (The time of the New Covenant / Covenant))

           The Old Testament / Covenant (was confirmed with Daniel's people Dan.9:24) by JESUS (The Word made
           flesh, the only begotten of the Father, the Messiah John.1:1-18; 41, Gal.3:17, Rom.15:8) However, Daniel's
           people (as a Nation)[00] rejected (mocked [00] and despised [00]) this confirmation (Matt.21:33-46,
            Hosea.1:10) and was "broken  off [00] from the "good olive tree" / God's Purpose [00] (Rom.11:25; 9:1-8,
            Heb.9:1-10).  NOW the Gentiles (from the Cross until our present time are being graffed Into the New   
           Testament / Covenant / the "good olive tree" (Rom.9-11, Eph.2:1-19; 3:1-12) until the fulness (full number)
           of the Gentiles be come in. (Rom.11:25)

           In the New Testament / Covenant the Thessalonian Church where the apostle Paul writes that the
     antichist (the man of sin, the son of perdition) will sit in the Temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. (Not an idol of himself) Then
  Revelation beginnings with a sealed book being opened. (The book that Daniel sealed

           Note: In fact the only reference that to the antichrist having anything to do with the Temple of God
           is 2Thes.2:4.

II.  The man of sin himself (not his idol) "sitsin the temple of God"
  

     Paul says, "that man of sin...the son of perdition; Who opposeth (opposes) and exalteth (exalts) himself above
     all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth (sits) in the temple of God, shewing  
     (showing) himself that he is God" (2Thes.2:4).

   

























                i.   The Temple was destroyed 70 AD (History) with no promise to rebuild
                j.   Jesus said that His Body is now the Temple and He taught the apostles that is the head of the church
                     which is His body. "Solomon built him an house. Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made
                     with hands; as saith the prophet, Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool: what house will ye
                     build me? saith the Lord: or what is the place of my rest? (Acts.7:47-48; 17:24, Eph.2:20-22, 1Peter.2:5,
                      1Tim.3:15-16)
              
                     Conclusion: The Temple / House / Sanctuary of  2Thes.2:4 is the Church / Temple that Jesus is
                     building right NOW!

            
    B.  Therefore the antichrist is going to sit in the Church(We must be on alert now!)

          1.  This is not a strange thing
               a.  Jesus said there would be "tares" (Children of the devil) in the Church and let the grow together.
                    (Matt.13:
               b.  The apostle Paul told the Church there those preaching another Jesus, Gospel (Gal.1) and Spirit
                       (2Cor.11)
               c.   Jude says there certain men crept into the Church
               d.  Jude / Peter also said there spots like Cain. Balaam and Kore (Jude.1) Feasting with you...
          2.  This is because the Church is the Temple of God
          3.  This is because His name is recorded on us in our Water Baptism
          4.  We MUST remember that we are to...
               a.  "Not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone
                    out into the world...and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come;
                    and even now already is it in the world.
               b.  "Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are
                  there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. (1John.2:16-18; 4:1-4) They went
                  out from us, (The Church) but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt
                    have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not
                    all of us.
          5.  Judas fell from the inside out

  
     Those who see this is an idol of the antichrist / beast are concluding this is because they are assuming and
     presuming that the antichrist will make a covenant with Daniel's people and allow then to rebuiltTempleof
     God in Jerusalem and reinstate of animals sacrifices.

     A.  This idolitary will be brought about by the false prophet (the other beast Rev.19:20) will make an
          image (idol) - false Prophetic minstry - Note: Balaam (Jude.1:10-15 / Deut.3:1-, 2Peter.2:1-)
     B.  This false prophet is Like (Isa.14:) a lamb (sheeps clothing Matt.)
                 (c)  This false prophet speaks as a dragon (speaks of another Jesus) - Revisionist - revising the name of
                        Jesus to mean he wants, while using the same terminology
                 (d)  This false prophet exerciseth all the power of the first beast (which is the antichrist, who gets his
                        power from the dragon / Devil)
                 (e)  This false prophet (prophetic ministry) causeth the earth and them (all kindreds, tongues and
                        nations Rev.13:7) to worship the first beast (antichrist) as he sits in the Temple of God,
                        shewing himself that he is God
                 (f)   This false prophet will deceive them (all kindreds, tongues and Nations.v.7 (that dwell on the earth
                        by the means of those miracles saying "that they should make an image to the beast." (Rev.13:14)
                 (g)  This false prophet has power to give life unto the image...that the image to...
                        -  Speak (dumb idols / no voice 1Cor.12)
                        -  Cause kill all those that refused to worship the image (Rev.13:16
                        -  The false prophet causes all both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond
                        -  Mark on right hand or foreheads
                        -  Cannot buy or sell (no commerce) without the mark
                 (h)  This false prophet (prophetic ministry) would make everyone to take the mark and the number
                       of his name.

  
 
     C.  A REVIEW UP TO THIS POINT
    

     Spirit of antichrist is already in the world today.
     There is coming a time (2Thes.2:6) "when" the man of sin will opose and exalt himself against the Church and
     when it is completed / perfected, (Day of Atonement) which will uproot all things that offend
 

     D.  There is a building going on NOW  (while the spirit of antichrist is competing against the Church)

     E.This bring brings to the beginning of the tribulation

          1.  During the last days / Tribulation
                
                  (a)  This idolitary will be brought about by the false prophet (the other beast Rev.19:20) will make an
                        image (idol) - false Prophetic minstry - Note: Balaam (Jude.1:10-15 / Deut.3:1-, 2Peter.2:1-)
                 (b)  This false prophet is Like (Isa.14:) a lamb (sheeps clothing Matt.)
                 (c)  This false prophet speaks as a dragon (speaks of another Jesus) - Revisionist - revising the name of
                        Jesus to mean he wants, while using the same terminology
                 (d)  This false prophet exerciseth all the power of the first beast (which is the antichrist, who gets his
                        power from the dragon / Devil)
                 (e)  This false prophet (prophetic ministry) causeth the earth and them (all kindreds, tongues and
                        nations Rev.13:7) to worship the first beast (antichrist) as he sits in the Temple of God,
                        shewing himself that he is God
                 (f)   This false prophet will deceive them (all kindreds, tongues and Nations.v.7 (that dwell on the earth
                        by the means of those miracles saying "that they should make an image to the beast." (Rev.13:14)
                 (g)  This false prophet has power to give life unto the image...that the image to...
                        -  Speak (dumb idols / no voice 1Cor.12)
                        -  Cause kill all those that refused to worship the image (Rev.13:16
                        -  The false prophet causes all both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond
                        -  Mark on right hand or foreheads
                        -  Cannot buy or sell (no commerce) without the mark
                 (h)  This false prophet (prophetic ministry) would make everyone to take the mark and the number
                       of his name.
Will there be a rebuilt Temple of God?



4.  The antichrist and his idol standing in the holy place(Matt.24:15)

     a.  This conclusion is because they see the 70 Week Prophecy centered around the antichrist, and not CHRIST
          (1)  They think that "he" is the antichrist  (The white horse rider - 1st Seal)
          (2)  This "he" makes a 7 year covenant with the Jews and allows them to rebuild their Temple and reinstate
                 animal sacrifices again
          (3)  In the "midst" (middle / after 3 1/2 weeks) he (the antichrist) changes his mind and takes over the rebuilt
                 Temple and places the idol of himself in the holy place

     b.  In the last days there will be "idolitary" in the House / Temple of God (but not a rebuilt Temple in the
          City of Jerusalem that now is) Note: how this idol / image comes about.

          (1)  During the last days / Tribulation
                 (a)  This idolitary will be brought about by the false prophet (the other beast Rev.19:20) will make an
                        image (idol) - false Prophetic minstry - Note: Balaam (Jude.1:10-15 / Deut.3:1-, 2Peter.2:1-)
                 (b)  This false prophet is Like(Isa.14:)a lamb (sheeps clothing Matt.)
                 (c)  This false prophet speaks as a dragon (speaks of another Jesus) - Revisionist - revising the name of
                        Jesus to mean he wants, while using the same terminology
                 (d)  This false prophet exerciseth all the powerof the first beast (which is the antichrist, who gets his
                        power from the dragon / Devil)
                 (e)  This false prophet (prophetic ministry) causeth the earth and them (all kindreds, tongues and
                        nations Rev.13:7) to worship the first beast (antichrist) as he sits in the Temple of God,
                        shewing himself that he is God
                 (f)   This false prophet will deceive them (all kindreds, tongues and Nations.v.7 (that dwell on the earth
                        by the means of those miracles saying "that they should make an image to the beast." (Rev.13:14)
                 (g)  This false prophet has power to give life unto the image...that the image to...
                        -  Speak (dumb idols / no voice 1Cor.12)
                        -  Cause kill all those that refused to worship the image (Rev.13:16
                        -  The false prophet causes all both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond
                        -  Mark on right hand or foreheads
                        -  Cannot buy or sell (no commerce) without the mark
                 (h)  This false prophet (prophetic ministry) would make everyone to take the mark and the number
                       of his name.

          (2)  The spirit of antichrist is already in the world
                (a)  .
                (b)  .

.
      
        

















     Note: Identifying what the Abomination is is CRUCIAL, because if you see it as the antichrist placing his
      idol [48] in the a rebuilt Temple in Jerusalem
     










.......

Remember

This false prophet is empowered by the first beast (the antichrist), who is inspired by the dragon (that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan Rev.12:9)

Who says, that he will be like the Most High.

Therefore he will counterfeit God's Purpose

For example: This man of sin will counterfeit God's spiritual House (Temple / Sanctuary) NOT A TEMPLE MADE WITH HANDS

If you see the abomination as a NATURAL MAN MADE IDOL of the antichrist (standing in the Most Holy Place) THEN your understand of Dan.9:24-27 will be CENTERED on the antichrist.

KEY THOUGHT: Jesus told the disciples "stand in the Holy Place". He DID NOT sat "Most Holy Place"
